to a flophouse, knowing the officers will soon turn back around. they worry with police officers feeling under increased threat, when the real thing happens when their life is on the liline, the camera will be a potentitially dadangerous deadly distractn. >> what if there's an a active shooooter in fnt of me and i'm thinking about in instead of my gun? that's the only issue i have right now with this. >> reporter: another concern, it might not always give a complete picture. in some ways that makes this the product incomplete. gives you only that one snip pent of time. >> one piece of the puzzle. it's a big piece. in some cases it's going to be a huge piece. in other cases it's going to be a smaller piece. it totally depends on when it's activated, what the angle is, where the individual's standing. >> reporter: lapd believes the cameras could protect its officers in the field and in court. and a couple of days before we interviews chief beck, reembedded with another unit that shot a man believed to be armed. >> dealing with the public, will we be able to s that? >> if presented in court it
