edit: danhood found a pic of the camera + helmet, and it fits compared to the video (IMO). Not obscured at all (also IMO). Go give them the points :)

Obscured: probably. It's a helmet-camera, so it's likely small, and may not appear as such at first glance.

But still. One's behavior should not change when being recorded, especially not a cop.
