The delay is not for the time between pictures of a 3 shot burst. You will get three pictures, then there will be ten seconds until movement in front of the camera will trigger the next 3 shot burst.

Hopefully that makes sense.

 :yeah: Sums it up all right.   I believe its designed that way for if its mounted on a trail and theres multiple animals moving by it'll catch more then one.

I do wish there was a little more time between pictures. My Primos 35 and 46 take the pictures so close together, that often all three pictures (or five with the 46) look the same.

I see the new 2013 Moultries have a fast burst and a slow burst, as selectable options. Those may not be the same terminology they use to describe those functions but that's basically what it is. The slow option will have a few seconds between each picture.

but are they $46 refurbished!!!! hahaha yea 2 seconds between wouldn't be so bad. I kind of like it now cause when I put the pics on my computers and look through them I can easily identify another animal coming into the picture because they are so similar and i can pick out the difference in them (if that makes any sense)

And for 46 bucks I can't complain. Clear pictures and an easy to use camera.

Bobcat- do your 35's take a lot of infrared pictures outta the blue. Like maybe if theres a weird slow cover or something it will shoot IR and then the next set of pictures will be normal 5 minutes later but all were taking during daylight hours?

Yep!  I almost mentioned that issue in my last post. My 35 and my 46 are the same way. They will often alternate between IR pictures and normal color pictures. I can have deer eating apples in front of the camera, at say 10:00 in the morning, and I'll get 3 IR pictures, then 3 color, then 3 IR, and so on. It's not the end of the world, but it's annoying. What I have found is that this is much less of an issue if you use these cameras where there's a lot of light. So I have only been using them on the edge of clearcuts, where it's either light, or it's dark.

Did anyone get one of the demo bushnells. About to pull the trigger on one just wanted to see if they turned out good or not?
Thanks Kyle

Do you have the tasco that takes C or D batteries for $50 (crap), or the 5mp tasco that takes double A's. I have pretty good luck with them. The $50 sucks
