trail cam video

[jeff]

anybody use the video option or does it kill the battery too fast

[OutWest]

What kind of camera are you using? We have 3 of the Reconyx RC60 that shoots 1080p pictures and video. I've had mine set up on and off shooting pictures and video since the Summer of 2010 and still have over 50% battery life. I'm using Energizer Lithium batteries. The quality of photos and videos are second to none.

It'll depend on the cam how long the batteries last. Some cams will last a yr others a couple days

mine are 16 gb trophy cams the video i tested at home seemed pretty good but it ate up the sd card fast

Try adjusting the length of video. Or putting in a bigger sd card if you can.

16gb will hold plenty of video. I've got two 8gb compact flash cards and swap them when I check my cameras. If your videos are long and you have the trigger firing as soon as the previous one is finished it will no doubt eat up your memory fairly quickly.

ya they are in the bush now but want to try that option on one of them but only got 2 gb cards they hold 271 pics at 5 pixel probably gotta spend a few more bucks and get the 60 dollar sd card thats 16 gb

Not familiar with trophy cams but my cam depending on the size of sd and camera setting will tell you how many pics or vids it'll hold

[jeff]

my Stealth cam filled a 8gb card on video mode, still showed full battery life. I'm running Lithium's in it though I think

Lets see the picture of your trail cams so we have some idea what they look like so if we HBC members want to get one we know what they look like.
