SKU: B3000
THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING THE ONE-TOUCH BUTTON
CAMERA
Please read this manual before operating the one-touch button
camera and keep it handy.
Button cameras are hidden cameras disguised to look like a shirt or
accessory button. They are a popular choice for covert recording
because they are so easy to hide on your person. Professionals in law
enforcement, private investigation, or secret shoppers will wonder
how they ever got along without this discreet, do-it-all unit.
Begin collecting your evidence with a simple button press. The high-
quality CCD image sensor records to up to 16GB MicroSD cards, giving
you space for hours of video and images. The built-in, top-of-the-line
battery fully recharges in just 2 hours directly from a USB port. Once
charged, it is capable of recording for up to 2 hours. Use the included
USB cable to move your data from the unit to your computer.
Your purchase should include:
1 x One-Touch Button Camera
1 x USB Cable
