    Trail Cameras, - Help needed

    Hey guys , looking at buying 1 or 2 trail cameras pre roar, what is everyone using and recommending ? Price is a bit of a factor, would prefer something I could check on the spot and not have to take the card home etc,

    Also how does one go about 'hiding' it from other hunters ? or do they blend it great ?

    Cheers in advance
    You know, if you need 100 rounds to kill a deer, maybe hunting isn't your sport.

    I used these ones.

    Security & Game Cameras and I see he has a new website

    I-SPY 47S - Securitex NZ

    Admittedly I use mine for around the home (Proof that couriers have / have not been etc among other things) I found them easy to use and when I gotthem they were well priced. I see there are cheaper ones out ther now, but as mine still work I have never bothered to look into them. Pictures are clear. A security outfit tried to sell me on digital cameras around and said if I wanted HD it would cost $$$$ I showed him what I was already getting and he was rather impressed. Especially considering they were a 10th of the price of what he had to show me. I got the absolute base model as that was all I needed. (I spy 47)

    I use Ltl Acorn 6210MC
    Does Still and Video in HD
    I take the card out and read it on my Android phone.
    Has built in colour screen but if you have old eyes a bit hard to see.
    Young person would have no problem.
    I purchased it from Aliexpress and cost $155US inc shipping. Took two weeks to arrive.
    Hunting is relaxing just like Yoga except I get to kill something.
    If it Flies it dies and if it hops it drops.

    If you can see a lot of clear country where you intend putting the camera, one that takes time lapse photos as well as proximity is excellent. Set the time lapse delay to say 15_30 minutes and you can often pick up things out of motion detector range. Draw back is it does it all night too so you end up with lots of black photos to trawl through.
