Wouldn’t say stealth because that sticks out like a sore thumb but they’re alright, lol.
I will never trust anybody with sunglasses again.
Yes, it’s kinda like trying to convince someone that the Video Recording Spy Pen is really just a pen – it won’t hold.
Thanks for your comments!
Are the pictures any good? Anyone have some sample pics?
I agree, it would be cool to see some sample pics.
I just made a couple of pics.

Its not so great but its not that bad either.
The product is in general good. It takes some gitting use to and it is hard to actually know what you are taking a picture of. Thankfully there are sound indicators that tell you when the camera starts to make a picture and when the exposition is over so you know when you have to keep your head still. No fancy image stabilization here. Unfortunatly you cannot make photos while listening to music.
soar, Robert it’s true that you can’t pass them as regular glasses, but you can easyly say that they are MP3 player glasses which they are and nobody will think that they might have an integrated camera.
Another good thing is that they remember where you were in the last MP3 when you make photos or stop playing for some other reason which is convinient when you want to resume listening to an audio book for example.
Not bad at all. Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts on the “Spy Camera Sunglasses”, Lino. Much appreciated!
Sounds like a fun and cool product! 🙂
Love to take pictures. Sunglasses let me catch pictures that i can’t believe. I also do walks like for cancer and other health issues to raise money.
I can walk, talk and take pictures all at the same time. How cool is that!!
oh,, one thing,,,, how do you add a picture on your comments,,,
