Just bought 3 of these from academy sports for $29 each. Anyone ever use these?
Mine is just the opposite. Deer walk up and it doesn't take their picture unless they make a sudden move. Pictures are pretty good though. It has yet to take a picture of a raccoon or squirrel. And I know they are there because I have my security camera pointed at the same feeder.I bought one, gives me some fits with the background lighting and super sensitive to movement. Hey its a $30 camera and I can see deer on it so its a keeper in my books.
I've thought the same thing but I think they do it on purpose so you will have to buy more when yours crap out.One would think with improvements in modern technology and the fact that these cameras have been around for a decade or more that even the cheap ones would be more reliable by now.

It’s pretty easy on a non-apple device. Directions walk you through it. First one took about 5 minutes (learning curve), and the other 2 took about 1 minute each. Good luck w/ yours.SO ? I got 1 of these and can't get the time and date on the sdcard. My laptop apple said software not app. 1st I'm not good with cumpooters lol. May have too fined a friend too handle this for me. Take good pics
Yep you'd think so, this one I got is the poorest product I've ever got from Primos. It will work fine for a few min. and may or may not work . My son and I set it up on a crossing that had deer tracks like a cattle crossing. Went back a week later and the only pic it had was the one of my son too test the cam. FRESH deer tracks every where and not pic's. Maybe its something to do with the time /date not being on the SD card.One would think with improvements in modern technology and the fact that these cameras have been around for a decade or more that even the cheap ones would be more reliable by now.

Can't get my daughters Apple to put time/date on the SD card.I picked one up to try. I use an Apple Laptop. Haven't tried to format a card yet because I am going to get a brand new card just for this cam.
So, is formatting card difficult via Apple laptop?
Thanks, wish Apple wound work.It’s pretty easy on a non-apple device. Directions walk you through it. First one took about 5 minutes (learning curve), and the other 2 took about 1 minute each. Good luck w/ yours.
