Mini Cameras
A mini camera is the result of marketing campaigns that appeared almost as cutthroat as the arms race. The goal amongst competing consumer electronics companies was clearly defined as being able to manufacture the smallest camera that functions just as well as a big camera. The mini camera has been available in a number of models for a few years now, and it is hard to tell which manufacturer is the clear winner of this marketing war. Perhaps the fact that the Innovage mini digital camera has become so popular answers the question about who has won.

Attached to key chains and marketed for as low as only $10, this camera has made a big splash with teens who know it is cool to take a photo with their mini camera when hanging out with friends at the mall. Yet a mini camera also goes over big in the security business. Take for example the wireless mini camera that is found inside a bullet proof camera dome. Because of its minute size, the dome can be tastefully hidden in the foliage of a nearby tree, or it may be concealed with other means

In those situations where it is better to leave the dome in plain sight, the small size of the camera enables the manufacturers to make domes that appear to be less intrusive into the every day activities that are being watched. A mini camera also features prominently in many spy movies. Take for example the classical mini digital camera that is used to take pictures of highly classified document.

A mini spy camera can also be used to “spy” on your hired help. Is the babysitter taking care of your children or talking to her boyfriend on the phone the whole night? Are your gardeners doing a good job or are they cutting corners? Is the plumber doing what needs to be done or is he creating a little extra work for himself and extra expenses for your? Some businesses have even found that the potential for malfeasance goes down when even mini dome dummy cameras are installed! As you can see, the mini is really getting big!
