When it comes to costs and spy tools, it can be a bit surprising. An investigator can use covert cameras such as body worn glasses, ties, hats, buttons and more. It is a little difficult to go into a bar or night club with a camcorder and try to get video if you are walking around with it. It is possible and we have done it in the past, but if you are following a suspicious husband who just had his wife accuse him of cheating and threatening to hire a pi, it sure makes it easier to go covert. With these great cameras you also need (in most cases) a DVR or digital video reorder to capture the images that you are trying to get. These all add to the investigations chance of success and do come at what most would consider to be a steep price. We have seen some cameras and DVR's that are inexpensive and the quality of the captured video tells the experienced user how much they cost. Blurred images and video that isn't even close to being viewable coming from a low lit bar has just wasted time and money. You can look online at spy shops and see the costs of these tools. The best quality DVRS and cameras can again run you over $ 1,000 or more. Plus, they do not last forever. We always try to take back up cameras and DVR's to each job because they can have the inherent ability to malfunction just when you need them most.
This is just another cost that the PI must deal with to help you achieve success in you investigation. Next...the cost of seeing at night for the private investigator
