Trail cameras are a great way to see what ferals are around and give you some idea of the times they visit locations. I've even used them around my chickens to work out the best time to trap foxes. I placed one on a freshly shot pig one night to see what animals visited and saw the crows were the first to visit to remove the eyes! Another great video.
Do the instructions come in Australian too ;) Looks like you are going to have your work cut out for you, setting checking, baiting and shooting to keep your fans busy watching the adventure . Look forward to this.
That camera on start up had the same chime as my old Fujifilm digital camera, menu graphics looked the same too. The Chineseum factory must have a few old bits left around 😁😁😁
Just some additional thoughts on the same camera Have never seen the battery below 100% either and I usually do 2 pics and a video of an event, the one near chook pen got a LOT of triggers and still going strong. The low glow is noticed by all mammals, but if you are moving cameras around to tally and identify ferals then by the time they are snapped it's too late for them to dodge being detected. So for that type of use it's not a problem Picture and video quality night and day is excellent IMO We get more rain than you and sealing has not been a problem. I like the Bluetooth function as I ride the quad up to a camera of a morning and can quickly check on my phone's larger colour screen without undoing or opening the camera what was sniffing around the 24hrs before. I think Campark is just a brand name (not a manufacturer) like say Gerber (a family in Sydney) Binoculars they just order a 1000 units from a manufacturer and get their branding name on it. I used to have an optics shop, and saw this all the time.
Thanks John. That's interesting. I had tried it with a picture and a video but the delay between the the picture and when the video starts was too long and most things had already walked past.
@@intothenight1993 Presence/absence, use photo, 3 burst min. Behaviour, video. Video is really interesting, but time consuming to review if a lot of triggers. Can show some key information in some circumstances though. Camera orientation is important, plenty don't get that. Plenty happens in the trigger interval that isn't detected (2 cameras together will get different info), & some animals are not detected. A time-lapse camera alongside reveals some of the deficit. Just part of it without getting really high tech, & it's uncertain if that is significantly better or just advertising. Price doesn't reflect efficacy always in the trail camera (or much electronics) field.
Hi Mate, it’s been 4 months since you did this video. Are you still happy with them? Any negatives, now that you have been running them for a while. Great channel, love your vids and sense of humour!
Hey Mate. Yes I am still very happy with them. I have had them out running the whole time since and they are still always saying fully charged battery from the solar panel. My only gripe which I think I covered in the video was the glow of the leds when recording but I have had a fair few dogs and lots of pigs etc on camera and since I shot that spooky dog I haven't had any shy away form the camera or pigs for that matter. So for the money I think they are still worth it.
Yeah mine are mostly still going good. Occasionally I have trouble with one or two of them not taking a picture but then they seem to work well. Definitely get what you pay for. But most of the time I don’t have an issue with them.
The link is now dead. So do these Campark T300/TC02 knock-offs (as assumed) work with the Wifi phone app i.e Game camera pro2 (Android) Game camera pro (IOS) ?

I bought a faulty trail camera from campark and this has been my experience trying to return it. I messaged them and told them the issues. (They have no contact phone number so it all has to be done by email) They said you have to run test on it first to determine it’s faulty. I told them I have been for three weeks already I been trying everything I can to see how I can get it to work reliably and it’s malfunctioning constantly. They said I can’t return it until they determine it’s faulty first. So they have me do test but the test they have me do is not the issue and they still won’t recognize it as being faulty after another two weeks of running more test on it and not working reliably. I can’t call them, I have to wait until they respond and I feel like I’m dealing with an AI operator because the response is so robotic. I’m tired of dealing with them, they should be the once working out the bugs not me. I’ve never ran across this when returning a faulty product with any other company. The camera is no good it’s going in the garbage and I’m never buying from them again.
That sucks mate. I’ve never got any off them as the ones I got were from eBay and I’m not even sure if they are actually Campark cameras or just copies. I have had a few issues with some of mine lately but not sure if it’s a battery issue. I haven’t got the backup AA batteries in them all but the internal battery is always saying 100%. I charged them and put them back out and it seemed to fix the problem. But 2 of them have been running non stop for the last 8 months and haven’t skipped a beat. 🤔
why did it take so long to produce this? the footage has already been shown in before videos. maybe do the trail camera intro before we see footage of it
@@intothenight1993 Prudent, some manufacturing is erratic & QA not good enough to cull out the rejects. Like human breeding. Social media has highlighted flaws & it's not cricket to sort the problem ones out like problem dogs, pigs etc (some get elected which says a bit for judgement, IQ or motive). PS good footage examples
I wish we got enough Sunshine in Scotland to run these !😂🏴
Well actually they seem to stay charged even in the shade from ambient light.
I got one for myself and I love it! Thanks!!
Good to hear mate. There are a good little unit for the price 👍

Thanks mate. Couldn't agree more.
Good one I like trial cam footage wish they had them when I was hunting and working up bush 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Great gear for seeing what those feral doggies were doing when they thought you weren't watching.
Yep 👍
I've had a few of those instruction pamphlets with electron gear, and they're written in Chinglish. Sometimes you can't make head nor tail of them.
Yes. But these seem to be written well and easy to understand 👍
Thanks into the night..Cluey bugger
Do the instructions come in Australian too ;)

Haha pretty much. It gets pretty busy. But stay tuned as more trapping and dog shooting footage coming over the next few weeks👍

Haha wouldn't be surprised 😉
Looking good.
thanks mate thinking of buying a couple one for wildlife and one for the property as security think ill get these they seem to work well
Can't go too far wrong 👌
850nm IR glows red which can reveal the presence of a camera, the 940 is "no glow" vs 'Low Glow, so it's harder to detect by the nefarious
I have also been looking at these on EBay , am very interested to see your review on them

@@intothenight1993 thanks for that, appreciate your reply. They sound like a good purchase.
@@anthonypuddicombe3152 yes I’m happy with them. If they make some with the 940ir leds I’ll definitely buy some more!
Is that the Campark TC02 model Josh ?
I’m not sure. It is an eBay copy of a Campark camera but I don’t have one here atm to check. I think I did say in the video
Hey Josh how are these going had a look on ebay $15 00 or $197???? Not shore thanks mate
Yeah mine are mostly still going good. Occasionally I have trouble with one or two of them not taking a picture but then they seem to work well. Definitely get what you pay for. But most of the time I don’t have an issue with them.
@intothenight1993 thanks for you time mate
hey mate any update are they still going strong
Yes mostly. Apart from the cattle breaking the clip in the strap and ants making a nest inside two of them they still work well. 👌

Supposedly they do. I have never tried using the wifi.
