Your dog is awesome! I love its enthusiasm for the outdoors. So I’m new to the whole trail camera thing. 1. When this records photos or video at night, I’m assuming those are IR flashes? A visible flash would scare the animal. 2. What’s the verdict on battery life? Is it as good as the manufacturer claims? 3. How is the audio? 4. How far away will it pick up motion to start recording? 5 feet? 10 feet? 15 feet?
Hello! Yes the camera has infrared light and is "low glow". Battery life is not super great. My camera gets a lot of action but it still is not as good as I would like. Batteries last about 3 weeks with heavy usage. Audio is low but still good. Check out my video of the first videos. I'll put a link below. Motion picks up to 50 yrds.
The Cook Family Homestead Thanks for the link. The video looks great, and the sound isn’t bad, either. It’s kind of like a white hot thermal recording. I thought it would be more green like “night vision.” I don’t know what a human voice would sound like, but the animals crunching the earth and snow sounded good to me. Well, I’m convinced. I’m gonna pick one (maybe two) up. I just have to figure out two things: 1. If there’s a tripod available to mount this on. and 2. How to remove that Bushnell logo from the video. I get it, they made it and they want people to know whose software is recording the video, but there’s gotta be some aftermarket software that would allow me to crop out that part of the video.
Hi, I have another Bushnell Game Camera, model # 119874, that allows me to take photos and videos at the same time. It will take a photo and then record. Does this model do the same?
Can you attach an external Battery Box to this camera? Like the Moultrie Camera Battery Box? Looking to put a camera in the woods for several months without having to worry about the internal batteries.
You said that you use Python cable locks? Just want to make sure they will work with this trail cam. Master Lock Python Trail Camera Adjustable Camouflage Cable Locks 8418KA-2 CAMO
These are beautiful magnificent angels. They love and try to protect and raise their babies, You can see this in the fields and mountains of how the babies love their mothers, back, Author Leonard Rue told of where a buck would go to an old root cellar and bed down except to eat until hunting season was over . I'ts like killing small children according to another writing. Call it a sport but to take a rifle and hunt down unarmed intelligent loving creatures that hurt and fear is shameful. we can get our protein in so many other ways without taking a life.
@@trooperbias737 I have no problem when people decide to become vegetarians or vegans. I have family members who are. I do have issues with vegetarians/vegans who act like they are morally superior to everyone who disagrees with them. It is ridiculous. I know a couple vegans who act that way and I can't stand them. They are arrogant jerks. Could care less if someone doesn't eat meat, just realize that it doesn't make you better than those who do.

Yes you can.
Is there only 24h and not 12h settings?

Are you a vegetarian?
@@TheCookFamilyHomestead Yes Ever since we were dispatched to a call yrs. back and entered a slaughter house. It changed me forever.
