I need advice looking for a spy camera.

Hi everyone, I need a camera to put down at my little girls grave, we've had some items go missing/be damaged and we are trying to find out who keeps removing or damaging them.I'm looking for a inconspicuous waterproof camera that's battery powered (prefarebly) or that can be powered by USB via a power bank and records to an sd card on loop. Is there such a thing and if so where do I start to look for one?. Nightvision and movement detection would also be a very welcome addition if it records when only movement is detected I'm assuming the battery will last a little longer.

Many thanks

Whilst I'm not sure this is the right direction to be heading, I'd be looking up wildlife cameras.

I know it isn't but the site staff arnt there 24/7. The police won't action anything with out hard evidence and we just can't keep going down there and seeing it in a state. If we get some sort of video evidence then we can hand it in to the police for them to deal with.

i'm very sorry to hear of the problems with your daughters grave, that must be utterly awful. just thought it worth asking - have you run it past whoever owns the graveyard? i imagine it will be privately owned by the church in which case i think (happy to be proven wrong) that you'd need permission to install a camera. though i doubt they would say no. i only mention it as it would be awful to go through all that then find the police can't act on the evidence.

A camouflaged trail cam would work. If you have permission.

Thanks for the advice, the land was owned by the local council but we purchased the plot to put our daughter to rest there and also for myself and my wife to eventually rest there too. The camera would only be focused on that plot so it should be ok as its our property only in the video, but I will ask just to be safe.

I'd like to believe in humanity - and put forward that its possible that things are going missing or being disturbed via bird or animal activity.

cool. hopefully you get it sorted and a stop put to it - even better if those responsible face criminal actions.
