Really Nice Camera for the price!
This little camera is really very nice. I set my camera set on pictures and video both and it works great. I set the camera and video I think on every 10 minutes. The motion detector picks up motion very fast and is fairly good not picking up the branches blowing because of wind. I put it on a tree with the straps close to a little pile of hay I had for my horses that the deer come and eat and got some awesome very clear beautiful pictures/video in the daytime. The nighttime pictures are very good too within about 30 feet and if light is in the background picks up a lot further. I used 8 batteries and I read on here you can use 4. The battery life is amazing and lasts a long, long time. My disk is 32 GB so holds a lot of pictures. The instructions aren't that great as far as playback on the camera monitor so I'm fooling around with that a little. I usually take the disk out and watch it on my computer but can also see it on the camera screen. I'm trying to figure out how to save the pictures and video on my computer but haven't been able to figure that out yet so if I want to send the pics/video to friends I take pics of my computer screen with my iphone. I live in Montana and the other night when it was -3 degrees it looked like the camera stopped working with the disk, then when I watched the disk again everything was on it. Maybe the disk had to warm up. I am shocked that this little camera is taking such great pics and video for the price. Since the instructions kind of suck as far as playback on the camera screen that took a little time to press different buttons and figure that out.I like the camouflage color because you can't see it on the tree or fence post. The strap is long enough to go around a 14-20 inch diameter tree or fence post. This is is my first trail cam so if you're familiar with these trail cams it would probably be a little easier beginning. Make sure the batteries are in right +/-. I love my little camera. My video won't download here for some reason to show it. These pics are taken with my iphone from my computer screen since I don't know how to save the pictures direct from the disk playing on my computer cuz there is no 'save as 'etc. In my opinion I would buy this camera again and might put one behind my old barn because of the predators coming in the winter. This would make a really nice gift for someone, man or woman, " I am Goddess woman" ..chuckle. Hope you enjoy yours as much as I'm having fun with mine.

Worth it!
I'm quite impressed with the picture quality of this device! My boyfriend lives in the rural part of town and there's been signs of nightlife, which drives the dogs crazy at night. He mounted this camera on the back of his property and we were able to see that there are quite a few animals that visit us at night!It's easy to set up once you have enough batteries! 8 of them to be exact, but it's definitely worth it. It took a few weeks before we were able to capture a perfect shot. I took the memory card out (not included, I have a 32GB) and we were able to view on my laptop! I played around with the editing to brighten some night shots.

This trail camera has worked great for me this bow season
This trail camera has worked great for me this bow season. I've had it out for about 4 months and have not had to change the batteries once. It has currently taken approximately 3,000 photos and all were quality. Night and Day photos are both quality. Didn't even have my camera set to the highest quality photo setting for pictures that were taken.I expect I will get continued good use out of this camera, as I have not experienced any malfunctions so far besides user error.Pro Tip: make sure you delete/format your memory card before you put into camera otherwise it may not add photos. Completely user error, nothing wrong with the camera itself.

Good for price. But you get what you pay for
Let me begin by saying for the price they are great I have 6 of these total on several properties. Two of them are only checked about every two months. They are rained and snowed on and have produced thousands of pictures. Now if you have used some of the high dollar cameras you will not get the performance out of these. The trigger is actually very slow. I say closer to 2 seconds. But it Varys from camera. One is really fast. Two are very sensitive. Little leaves set off. One of them a bear didn’t trigger it. So ultimately if you buy one you might get a good one or you might not. No consitancy. If you need allot of cameras these will work. If you only need one or two buy a expensive camera.

Surpringly good picture quality
Surprisingly good quality pictures and video for the price. Make sure to increase your pictures to 12mp, default is 5mp. The dual photo and video mode is ideal, and the picture and video files are ordered sequentially on the SD card in avi and jpg format.The infrared illuminators put out plenty of light for seeing clearly in absolute darkness.Mine has one odd quirk, it only works with 4 of the 8 batteries installed, seems to be a known issue as the manufacturer recommended the fix.

Time lapse trail camera without motion detection
This camera has good points and bad ones. I find the picture quality to be good, although the night vision area is narrow. I've gotten some great shots of the wildlife in my yard! The interface is easy to use with a bright graphic user interface, but the motion detection setting is a joke. At first I thought that I had so many shots of nothing because the wind was moving the grass and bugs were flying by the motion sensor, but then I set it up indoors and I had the same problem. Every night there are hundreds of pictures and/or video of absolutely nothing, even though it's inside the house where there is no wind, no grass, and almost no insects. So it's more of a time-lapse camera, really! Did I mention that the instructions are minimal and very unhelpful?

Stopped working in 4 days... Junk
I have the same problem that some other reviewers had..... within 4 days of receiving this item it stopped working. The first couple of days it worked fine, but this morning I can't get it to do anything in "Test" mode. I've replaced the 8 batteries (after only 4 days) with a new set of 8 batteries, but still nothing happens in "Test" or "On" mode. The red PIR light does not flash, the screen is blank, the camera seems to be dead. If it was a battery issue the 8 new batteries should have solved it. This is really frustrating. One would think that an item would survive longer than 4 days. Now I will have to return it and wait for a new item to arrive. I would not recommend this item to other potential buyers as it is complete junk.
