I was researching the best Camera Glasses for fishing, as this is a fishing Tec site. However, I realized after I had finished that it would make sense for this to be a general article on these glasses. Once you have a pair of camera glasses, you can use them for most of the other situations mentioned in the article, and you may see some extra features that you would like and buy a higher-end pair. So read the whole article if considering buying video recording glasses.

Some uses include: Mountain Climbing, Biking, Fishing, Scouting, Camping, Traveling, Driving, Hunting, Shooting, Driving, Cycling, Riding, Fishing, Motorcycling, Outdoor Sports, Public speaking and Exams

Most of the other articles I have seen, list the best ten pairs of glasses and give a description of each. I will attempt to suggest the right glasses for different uses (Sport, professional, Water sports, Discreet & general use), and listing the features that are available. You may decide that you want low-light compatible glasses, or glasses that you can have prescription lens fitted.

Common Uses For Video Recording Glasses

Open-Air Activities And Outdoor Events.

Video Recording Glasses are used by people when doing outdoor things, because it allows them to film the experience exactly as they are seeing it. Everything that they see is going to be recorded on to the video. If you were to take it while running, you would record the full experience, including their breath getting heavier as they started running up that hill. When you watch the video again, your mind will be taken right back to the complete experience.

You can also use your camera glasses to give an audio report of what you are seeing and doing for your friends, or even to make educational / YouTube videos to share with other people.

There is no problem when you want to video some action, simply press a button, and then look at whatever you wish to record. If you are out fishing for example and someone hooks a large fish, one press of a button, and everything you see is recorded. The glasses will be on your face, so there is nothing to fetch or setup.

Touring And Travelling

Touring and Travelling is another everyday use for camera glasses. Whenever visiting attractions, tourist spots, or the beach, your glasses are always with you. You can easily take pictures and videos of all of your destinations. We have all been in the situation where you see something that would make a great photo, but by the time you have got your camera ready, the shot is gone. A single press to your glasses and that moment is captured forever.

Camera glasses allow you to record your experiences and adventures, and share them with your family, friends, and people on social networks, letting them see places that they may never otherwise experience

Water Sports

Water sports and activities can now be captured with your camera glasses, as you can get glasses that are water-resistant or completely waterproof. This includes things like water parks, swimming pools, kayaking, windsurfing, and boating. At some of these events you may not get wet, but if you will spend a lot of time on, or near the water, then getting glasses that can take some splashes is always a good idea.

I include fishing in this category, as when fishing, there is always a lot of water around! I have never dropped my glasses into the water when fishing, but have been caught it the rain on over one occasion, so waterproof, or at least water-resistant glasses should be considered.

Family Events

Family Events, gatherings, weddings, etc. It is always nice to have memories of your family events to look back on. Of course, there is no reason that you can’t capture these on a regular camera, but having camera glasses has a few advantages. For starters you can join in with all the fun, as you are hands-free and just looking at what you want to record, you are less conspicuous at the event, and people (especially children) will act more naturally when there is no visible camera pointed at them.

Also, if the guests do not know you have camera glasses, you will record an entirely authentic event.

Allowing someone to capture an experience from another viewpoint. Once you have these glasses, you can let other people, who maybe do not have the technical experience to use a video camera to capture an occasion from their personal perspective. For example, at a birthday party, if the birthday girl is a child or older person, you can put the glasses on them and hit the record button.

Professional Use.

Some people find camera glasses useful in capturing videos for their work. This can include things like videoing a job where there may be a situation — for example, repossessing a car or something similar. The camera glasses can record all the proceedings, including any paperwork and the actual collection and condition of the vehicle, leaving the hands free to do the job. Should there be any problems at a later date, you have a video of the whole situation.

In a similar vein, you can record video and audio to make training videos for your employees or colleagues, where it would be difficult to make alone with a standard camera — e.g., changing the head gasket on a car. As you look around the engine, the viewer will see what you see, and you can speak, saying what you need to do, and all the time your hands are free to do the work. You do not have to move the camera manually to get a shot of a different area.

Replacing Other Video Recording Technology.

Many people use video camera glasses in place of where they would have used other recording devices. You can get GoPro content, without having to strap a device onto the body or your helmet. It’s just a lot simpler! You can also capture moments that would be hard to get using other more obvious cameras, as mentioned, recording kids, etc.

Of course, the main reason that video camera glasses are used in place of other technologies, is the fact that you know exactly what is being recorded – it’s what you are seeing (unlike a GoPro when strapped to yourself), and it is 100% hands-free.

This means that it can be easily and legally used in more situations. For example, driving your car through a beautiful landscape, the glasses are far easier for you to use than recording it on your smartphone.

The last point in this category, as it probably one of the few recording devices that allows you to forget that you are videoing the occasion, and join in with the fun, giving a much more natural recording

Recording And Saving Videos.

Many people like to keep videos of notable events, birthdays, graduations, etc., and share them with friends and family. These are shared on social media accounts, and these become diaries, or personal archives after a while. Camera glasses are the perfect device to record these memories.

Other Questions

Are Spy sunglasses good?

There are good, and not so good versions of spy sunglasses. If you want to get a cheap pair from the likes of Alibaba, they will be less than perfect. If you want a better pair from amazon, it is going to work better - if you go for the expensive pair. The extra expense goes in to the cost of the camera.

Does Google Glass have a camera?

Yes, Google do have glasses. However, the cost of them are about $1,500, and that assumes that you can get them.

How can you tell if Spy sunglasses are real?

To tell if glasses are real, you will need to look at the frames, especially between the eyes. That is usually where the camera is, and on "spy" glasses it will be hidden. However, if someone is wearing these glasses, it should look bulky in this area.
