Police generally don't need a warrant to seize items that they reasonably believe are evidence of the commission of an offence.
Anything that they take has to be recorded, and properly stored, and available for production in court when recorded.
If they fail to produce it when requested, I'd expect the Magistrate to get cranky.
Another issue is this. In recent years, there has been a lot of legislation about "recording devices", "surveillance devices", and "tracking devices".
As I understand it, if you record what other people do, &/or say, without their consent, then you might be committing an offence.
