You can get one way mirror film that you can put on glass, and shoot through that.
Get bullet cameras and put it in a button on a bag and hook it to a camera or video deck to record.

Something you should look into is the legality of it. Others here will know much more about it, but from what I've read it's quite difficult to legally acquire footage with a hidden camera.

Is there a button camera you'd recommend?

We shot the mission below a few weeks ago. Surprisingly, the StarBucks employees didn't know we had anything to do with what was going on.

Thanks for your concern. The videos aren't harmful, they are public pranks and it's quite rare that someone has a problem with the final product.
