The PV-500 EVO 2 II HD 1080 could be difficult for a new shopper who is doing their first video shop because of the data compression, but it might not be. I am using this camera on strip-bar audits because of its superior night-vision capability. Not just working for companies but started doing my own company shops for clients that the other companies won't touch, like gentelmen's clubs and adult bookstores. There is bank to be made in video shopping.. In my case, a Texas club in Houston needed proof that a manager was working with some dancers who were going way to far in the VIP area where the club's hidden cameras couldn't see. I was able to video the activities which took place in the dark. This particular camera produces a crisp image for the client.

Before I shelled out for the expensive data plans I used the hotels internet and during the hours it sometimes took to upload I had to always worry about the connection dropping and then having to start the whole upload again. If you are on the road and you have to be out making money by 8am and you find out at 6am that your video didn't upload then you are screwed and will feel sick all day that it was your fault the client didn't get their video. Also, I can do many more shops than my competitors because I know that I can upload in minutes so I can output more video. Verizon allows me to add data anytime so I only pay for what I'm going to use. By doing more video shops I make my nut faster each month.
