Hidden Zone is a voyeur site full of videos and photos of real people captured in very intimate moments. From the couple boinking on the beach, to the ladies undressing in the locker room, and all the upskirts and pantylines in between, there's a little bit of something for everyone who likes to watch. Their hidden cameras catch it all.
Upon entering the member's area, you'll immediately see links to the latest updates. It's funny, the text says "Our daily update is:" but the dates indicate the update schedule looks more like every three to four days, not daily. Either way, it's not a bad calendar. You'll also notice links to the content categories on the left. The site currently contains over 1,400 clips, each about a minute long. Usually a scene will consist of multiple clips but they don't actually break the site down by scene; it's just page after page after page of clips. The organization of the photos is much better as they have actual galleries (466 of them!). There's no arguing this isn't a large site! I do think a little more care could be put into the layout, however.
The video categories include Beach Cabin, Japan Voyeur, Locker, Other, Beach, Upskirt, VPL (visible panty lines), and WC (water closet). Each clip is a downloadable XviD avi. I would really like to see more video options. At least they download fast because the clips are so short. Most play at around 900k and they look good, especially for a voyeur site. You can enlarge them quite a bit and they only get minimally pixelated. It's a nice large collection that could just use a touch more user-friendliness.
Photo quality varies a good bit. A lot of these galleries look very, very amateurish to me. I wasn't quite as impressed with these as I was with the videos. Many of the photos are small and several galleries have the participants faces blurred. Many are little better than vidcaps. The categories here include Hardcore, Nature, Party, Sauna, Softcore, and Swingers. A lot of the galleries barely, if at all, fit the voyeur theme of the site. I mean folks are having sex looking directly at the camera! Others are better but the videos definitely do a much better job of sticking to the theme.
As far as voyeur sites go, Hidden Zone has a good collection of content. The site is very large and the content quality is decent. Updates are frequent. The site could be a little more user-friendly, as I didn't care for the way the clips are displayed and the lack of video options hurts somewhat, but some might argue those are minor points on a site this size. $30 a month is what membership will run you, not cheap but reasonable for a collection this big. I'd definitely say Hidden Zone deserves a look by all voyeurs.

Review: 06-30-06 |
It's been eight months since we last looked at Hidden Zone and they're still collecting wild voyeur videos of unsuspecting women. I don't think a whole lot has changed since our initial review. They're still updating every three to four days and the site now contains over 2,000 clips and 8,000 photos. The price is still at $30 a month, not bad but not cheap either. Since the site is basically the same, my score isn't going to change either. I'm glad this large site continues to grow. I'd love to see even more in the way of upgrades at our next visit.
Score decreased from 79.4 to 79.0.

Another year and another couple thousand photos and videos, bringing their total content counts to 10,566 pictures and 3,271 movies. Updates have been coming daily recently so it's no wonder the site is as large as it is. I'd still like to see more user features, both for viewing the content and navigating the collection. However, voyeur fans are still sure to enjoy this large original collection.
Score increased from 79.0 to 79.5.
