LighterCam

Wednesday, August 22, 2007

I remember watching all those spy movies with my dad when I was younger, intrigued by all the very cool gadgets at their disposal. The Lighter Cam is a perfect example. It is only as big as a Zippo cigarette lighter but is capable of great quality, high resolution pictures. It has a quick shot feature, by flipping open the top you can immediately start taking pictures, you do not have to switch it on and we all know how long that can sometimes take. It is very discreet, so no one else will know what you up to, after all, the best pictures are those when no one knows you’re taking them. I always try to get ‘natural’ photos from the family, but when ever I pull out the camera they all start posing. The Lighter Cam also has surveillance mode, which enables you to preset times for it to take pictures. This mode last for about 19 days. It even has video recording capabilities, with sound! The only downside to this miniature marvel is that it only has 8MB storage. It has a USB port and comes with a cable and it's plug-n-play, so you can use it on any PC or Mac. It only uses 1 AAA battery which is included with your Lighter Cam.

Lithium battery: 4.2-volt
