The Camera Beard is a miscellaneous item for the Spy. It is a bushy, black fake beard, covering the wearer's face from the nostrils down, with a film camera cleverly hidden within.

Trivia
- This item is a tongue-in-cheek reference to real-world spy micro-cameras, which are disguised as innocuous articles of clothing such as shirt buttons or wristwatches, or in this case, a fake beard.
- Initially, the Camera Beard was rejected by the Spy for being too ridiculous in the Sniper vs. Spy Update Day 4, and he chose to purchase the Cloak and Dagger and Dead Ringer instead.
- The Mann Co. Store prices the Camera Beard at about 60% of the price listed in the Dapper Rogue Catalogue.
- Before Camera Beards were included in the "Rebuild Headgear" crafting recipe, players could craft three of them into a scrap metal.
- Prior to Camera Beards changing from a headwear item to a miscellaneous item, they were still dropping at a high rate.
