Hi i am starting to get into the field of pen testing and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for a small but decent camera for covert surveillance? the book unauthorized access recommends Cannon  powershot cameras but i am looking for something a little cheaper do any of you veteran pen testers have a better recommendation? thanks in advance

what is the resolution on that like? can you do badge survellance with it?

can you get a decent picture of a badge with it? thats my main requirement
