Introduction

If you want to monitor your home, visitors, or family members, you'll need a spy camera gadget. There are lots of clever ways you can spy on someone, and the best spy cameras are the devices that don't look like a spy camera at all. Hidden in plain sight, these amazing cameras can take still photos or video to help you keep an eye on your favorite people or important valuables. Some people use these spy devices as "nanny cams", while others simply use them for the fun of it.The Z62 Intelligent Security Camcorder from Zetta Systems may not jump out initially as a typical spy camera. It doesn't use a disguise, nor does it have any functions other than being a video camera. However, its incredibly small size lets you hide this nanny spy camera anywhere, whether it's under an open book or in your entertainment center.I wanted to know if it would work well enough to protect my car and home.

Software

The ZN62 acts as an access point (also referred to as a hot spot) in which a smartphone wirelessly connects directly to the camera when you choose Attez from the phone?s list of available Wi-Fi networks. Live View and camera control is enabled from the mobile device. In this mode, Internet access is disabled.

http://i68.tinypic.com/2nlzbs.jpg

There are two multi-colored light emitting diodes on the camera. The one next to the USB port is called the Charging LED. The one next to the power button is referred to as the Status LED. Here?s what their colors mean:
Power On: Press and hold the power button until the green LED lights up. Power Off: Press and hold the power button until the LED shuts off.
Connecting to a computer: Make sure that the ZN62 is powered off before connecting it to your PC?s USB port. An orange LED will light up next to the camera?s USB port and the green LED will light up next to the camera?s power button. A directory will appear on your computer screen listing the video and picture files on the camera?s removable disk.
Operating in AP mode: If the Orange LED is lit, the camera is waiting for the smartphone connection. If the green LED is flashing, the camera has successfully connected to the smartphone.
Operating in router mode: If the camera is successfully connected to the router, a green LED will be flashing. If the camera?s Live View is being accessed from a mobile device, an orange LED will be flashing.

One really nice thing about this camera and its app is that it?s very responsive. We tested the video feed while our phones were on Wi-Fi and LTE and the feed loaded very quickly.

Peformance

With its battery, this camera can record for 8 hours continuously, and it can go much longer when you use motion recording mode.Once I had everything connected, I pulled up the video feed. I was incredibly impressed with the video feed. Even though it's only 720P HD video, the signal is crisp and clear.Thanks to the HD quality streaming and recording, it is easier to identify what's happening within the scene. Faces can also be easily identified assuming you have a good angle and they are not too far from the camera.

The sound quality is okay and the long lasting battery is brilliant.You can get more than eight hours recording (at the highest settings) before the 32gb card (not overwriting) is full and there's still life in the battery.
