How to detect hidden camera, spy camera, video recorder

First of all, all the electricity devices are needed to be turned off before start detecting hidden recorder devices.

Potential hiding place to be planted a camera or microphone:
  • Accessories like a baseball cap
  • in ceilings
  • next to light fixtures
  • electronic devices like CDs, VCRs and alarm clocks
  • common device such as a power outlet, stereo speaker or smoke detector.
  • any conspicuously placed objects such as stuffed animals, smoke detectors, lamps, picture frames or books. 
  • objects that seem to be "pointed" at areas of the room in an unnatural way.
  • under tables or chairs, or inside pots and vases.
Using a detector
  • Hidden camera detector
  • Laser detection device
  • RF Sweeper audio detection device
  • Radio Frequency (RF) signal detector
Other Action:
  • Turn off all the lights in the room and look out for tiny lights that might be green or red. 
  • Keep your ears open. (Microphones and cameras tend to make little noises as they listen or watch you.)
