"The Barker family was settling into their Airbnb in Cork, Ireland, another stop on their 14-month trek around Europe, when they discovered something disturbing. On the ceiling in the living room, hidden inside a detector, was a camera." |
"Tiny cameras with one-millimeter lenses were hidden in hair dryer holders, satellite boxes and closed electrical sockets, the police said. More than 800 intimate videos were then shown on a website that charged some viewers for a monthly subscription." |
"Two small, black, rectangular boxes were stacked next to an outlet on the far side of the guest room, both facing the bed. From afar, they looked like phone chargers. But when Vest got closer, he realized they were cameras. |

Hidden Cameras are a real problem. The New York Times, Washington Post, and BBC have all covered the problem extensively - any hotel, Airbnb, or restroom could have spy cameras installed without your knowledge.
That clock over there? It's in every hotel room, ever.
It also has a camera in it. It's pointed right at the bed and can record high-resolution video whenever someone moves in front of it.
Scout Is A Brand New Hidden Camera Finder
Scout uses high-powered LEDs that reflect off camera lenses. Doesn't matter if it's a CCTV camera, your iPhone, or a spy camera - Scout finds it.
Just look through Scout's aperture and you'll see a pinpoint of bright red light if it detects a camera.
What's in the Box
Scout Camera Finder
Hidden Camera Practice Lens
Instructions
2xAAA Batteries
How to use Scout
1. Stand 5-15 feet directly in front of the item you think may be concealing a hidden camera.
2. With the LEDs pointing away from you, hold Scout up against your eye so you can look through the aperture.
3. Use the button on Scout to turn the LEDs on.
There are two settings - solid and flashing. Most people prefer the flashing option.
4. Look through the aperture of Scout towards the suspected hidden camera.
If you see a red pinpoint of light shining back at you, you may have found a hidden camera.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does it work?
Scout bounces light off camera lens. Most cameras also have an infrared filter, which will bounce even more back.
How do I use the pinhole lens?
Hold the ribbon on the practice lens at arm's length so the camera is looking at you.
Use Scout on the lens and you'll see the red pinpoint of light bouncing off.
How long do the batteries last?
A very long time. With regular use, the 2xAA batteries will last well over a year.
What's the return policy?
It's a 30-day return period, no questions asked.
Scout comes with a one year warranty. If anything goes wrong, you can reach out to us by phone, live chat, or email on SpyGuy.

I haven't had an experience to go anywhere to rate this but I do have camera's in my home and it works great in locating them. Thanks so much for this item. I'm sure it will work just fine if we get to go anywhere soon to test it out.
