Your Campark camera reviews have been a game-changer for me, especially the insight about bit rates. I have a new T180 that I'm using to capture 2K video, like you recommend, and it's working pretty well. I'm also really impressed with the night vision quality. The only big issue for me is that tripod mount in the back -- I put my cameras on mini-tripods on an inclined rooftop, and though I have a ball joint I can use as an adapter, it's really hard to stabilize the camera at a useful angle. I will keep experimenting, but if you have any advice, do let me know. Thank you so much for all this great info, and for producing such amazing content in general!
I understand the problem and I use the same set up with a small tripod. I make sure I have two legs splayed in front and the back leg straight behind the camera - I then place a heavy weight like a brick on top of this back leg. The works pretty well and gives me confidence that the camera won't topple forward.
@@paultreviews I did something pretty similar, yeah, but I couldn't get it to work very well on an inclined roof. I eventually moved the feeders to a different staging area, where I can mount the camera properly on a different small tripod. The camera is still so top-heavy, though, I have to be careful when removing the SD card, etc.
@@thesuburbanmorrigan Yes, I can see that on a roof incline it's pretty tricky.
Sorry I didn't see this til now, but what I use are 2x6 or 2x4 treated lumber pieces about 18" each attached at right angles with two deck screws and then put the bracket on the vertical one and either use a heavy rock if on the ground or screw it into something to hold it fast. Good Luck. BB
I figured out a way to attach macro filters to the T300/TC02 for filming birds at close range: th-cam.com/video/fDFoie7Lfiw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=nOMOi9zLJMh0Nl3X
❤️❤️ wow 👍👍👍
The best
Good job 🙏🙏🙏
I have two of this exact cam, but they say T-150 on the back. I was sure they were T-300 cams though. I have the packaging in front of me, and it's identical to yours.

Thanks, good to hear from you Ilario! BB
Very nice review. Maybe The stray cat should stay to kill rats 🤣😂
Thanks! I hope that is what he is eating - he has escaped traps twice so he's not going anywhere. BB
I'm looking for a trail/game camera that films longer than 5 minutes. Do you know of one? I also have a lot of wildlife on my channel.
That's actually not a bad price for a trail cam. I might need to get me one. I just wonder if I can figure out all the bells and whistles it has. Which one would you suggest for a back yard bird feeder? Have you done a video on different cameras for different wants? I am just now thinking about a trail cam after years of watching out my window. But I live on 6 acres and kind of want to see what travels through and to see what happens at my feeders, too. Thanks for this!
The TC06 Trail Camera: shrsl.com/3nk72 would be best for getting good closeup views of a bird feeding area. It can be put as close as 18 to 24" away and be clear, just have to experiment a bit. Use 4K video settings so you can crop. 6 acres is a big area so to see what is going on it would be best to isolate areas that are like animal trails or places you know animals like to hang out or since you have a big lot you could establish a feeding area for mammals to focus on. Really the TC06 is good for both uses and my favorite trail camera also because it has great sound recording. With 6 acres you should have a lot of fun - good luck! BB Also here is the link to the TC06 review th-cam.com/video/2kQT--O6Tyw/w-d-xo.html the only downside is you'll need a separate solar panel, but it is worth it if you want the best video quality. The other option would be the Campark TC07 Trail Camera: shrsl.com/3oysv which is like the TC06 with built in solar power for about 20 dollars more or so, but it doesn't have that good of sound depending on how important that is to you.
@@MyBackyardBirding Wow! Thanks for such great information! We keep a lot of our acres wild and have seen plenty of wildlife even though we are butted up against the interstate and surrounded by developments. Moose, fox, deer, owls and hawks to name a few. We have even set up a few areas where they can get out of the weather when it gets so very cold. But it sure would be neat to see what all passes through. Thanks BB! Ill be studying up on your info ❤
Well done
bonsoir, t180 t300, quelle difference?
I purchased the T-100 camera with solar battery pack. Both have failed in the first season due to leaking rain into the cases. My lens is now foggy with droplets of water. Have you had issues with weater resistance? I presently have a very low opinion of Campark.
T100 is my favorite camera, 2 of them survived a flash flood and mud th-cam.com/video/ZpVjq66sO7Q/w-d-xo.html another Campark TC06 survived being submerged in a hurricane. I'm still using all of them today. Search campark survived hurricane for second video. Tips in the vids will show you how to clean them. Pretty tough cameras. BB
I assume you were referring to the accessory solar power bank. I contemplated getting one for a T100 I had before but was put off my reviews complaining about sudden failures in-use and corrosion of the cable inputs. I'm trusting the integrated solar panel on the TC02 will hold-up.
does this camera allow you to monitor your yard via live stream on your phone?
No, you need either a wifi or 4G setup like these I just tested that use 4G Campark TC18 system at: shrsl.com/42we1 and Campark TC17 Camera at: shrsl.com/3spdl or ones that connect to your home wifi router and you can watch live anywhere. I'll post that link next
These work great for me - Campark for example the SC04 system at: shrsl.com/3yead
There are reviews of all these on my channel. BB
So, what does the WiFi in the title refer to?
@@grahamball7913 You connect to your phone via wifi to control the camera review and process pics and vids - its all in the video. BB
Where can you buy this in the USA?
You can get it at: shrsl.com/3wlpp It is a nice trail camera especially clear at night. BB
I have tried hundreds of times to get this thing to connect to my Phone and my laptop and it just wont connect|? Help me please
If you followed along in the video on the app and it didn't work try going to app settings and force the app to stop and then restart or if that doesn't work try uninstalling and re-installing the app. That might clear it up. I have had no problems with this camera. As far as connecting to a laptop that can only be done with the usb cable attached, but if you are going to do that I would just remove the SD card its the same thing. You wont get a live view on a laptop. BB
That solar panel is WAY too flat. I have found that 45 degrees works best here in MN.
Also, does the solar panel charge rechargeables so that camera can be ignored for a year and still get all of its videos every night?
In your case I would recommend the Campark TC07 Trail Camera: shrsl.com/3oysv It has 4 ways to get power, battery backup, integrated solar panel, DC direct input to the solar panel and an external jack for a totally external solar power panel which you might need in MN to handle those low sun angles. Good Luck! BB
@@MyBackyardBirding Thanks. It's not the low sun angle, it's the snow.
