I was asked about how I captured some of my footage in the Raleigh, NC thread so I figured I'd post it here for anyone else who may be interested. Perhaps the site will receive an increase of higher quality pics of the action going down.

I just use a dashcam, particularly ones with a dual camera system with lenses that can be individually rotated and have night vision which will narrow the selection to just a few. The wider the fov the better. Back when I was first experimenting with a camera system, I used actual hidden cams mounted in spots to be able to get footage and would be called out for it. But dashcams have become normalized so hookers rarely call them out. Sometimes a higher class girls will say something. Still, it's easy to ease their fears, I just say its gps, I drive uber, its my friends car or that its not on or all four, LOL. They always buy it. The mental bandwidth available to these girls is limited just like all of us and they are worried about a great many things other than something seemingly benign like a dashcam. Since I have a few, I mounted one on the back windshield too.

Here are some sample shots captured by some dash cams, one is a night time shot so it's in black and white. The rotating lens is nice because they can be pointed any where in the cabin, side windows and of course to the front of the vehicle like in a normal use case.

These days I think dashcam footage would be surpassed by 360 cams. If I was still doing cruises now, I'd try a insta360 v4 cam mounted in the windshield for the day time. Dashcams have limited field of view and I hated having missed out on good footage because the angle wasn't perfect. 360 fixes all that except nightvision. Resolution would be insane. I wouldn't recommend using one or any expensive dashcam on a big city blade with hardened pimped out girls because having a $400 cam near their greasy mits wouldn't be a good idea. But in smaller cuts, I'd doubt it would be an issue, I never had one threatened in all my cruises.

Also, keep in mind having a cam film all your interactions could net a world of trouble if caught in the midst of committing a crime by a cop. If it is regular stop like for traffic or for a random pickup to get more info from you, they can't seize it but I'd imagine if they catch you doing the dance of two angry backs, they can and will seize the cams. Bad day.

I also use a keyfob cam with night vision secured via velcro strips on the driver's door arm rest. Since it is a pretend key fob with working fake key, they can stare right at it and you can see their mind just dismiss it. Key fob cam is great because the battery life is decent, long enough to record an entire massage parlour session. Just tape over the indicator light.

Pen cams and watch cams are good when needing to get footage inside a hotel room or house. I always wanted to try a discreet body cam for better footage but I've always preferred car dates so never bothered. Watch cam is especially great because no one is suspicious if I take it off and place it somewhere to capture the footage or scan the room. Same with key fob cam. Since it would be suspicious to bring two key fob cams to a massage parlour, I bring one key fob and one watch cam and place them opposite sides of room with my other incidentals to avoid suspicion.

Here are some sample key fob and watch cam shots. FOV is much smaller so correct placement is key. I rarely got things perfect in parlours.

Thanks for the tips! I admire those who have the balls to do car dates. I just can't enjoy them, although I agree there are some gems out there to be picked up and brought "home". Thanks for sharing the pics too so we can see the quality you can get from those tiny cams (although some of those faces are nasty, the asses are nice LOL). The day time pic quality is excellent. The massage parlors not so much. I always used to wonder why they turn the lights down on the flip. I think now I know why.
