Thread: Trail Cams

I have a few cheap ones and they all do OK, about $100 new off eBay. I started out by looking at the expensive ones which run to hundreds of dollars per camera, but realised I'd learn more with 5x $100 cameras than 1x $500 camera. A couple have failed once or twice but overall I have a lot of animal photos.

Some tips:
-Secure it properly. I tied one to a rock and it moved, and rested another on a sheltered ledge. A possum pushed it over...
-Don't set it up facing the sun because you can get washed out photos. Southward is best.
-Use decent alkaline cells.
-Remember to plug the external power bung in, they tend to pop out on some models.
