BH45 Finally got my camera out !
« on: July 13, 2014, 09:37:19 PM »
So today I decided to get some batteries and a card and hiked in about 3 miles where I know some big bulls were last year ...I know it is a little early for them to be tearing up the place but I figured what the heck ...50 skeeter bites later but it is set ....Hopefully I get something walking by !!

Well for my very 1st set I guess I did o.k ... I hiked in this morning and picked up my camera ..I had 27 photos in 5 days ... The only thing I did wrong was put the camera to close to the trail ... Most of my pictures they walked up to the camera inches away ..all I got was hair  :yike: :chuckle: :chuckle: but I know they are in there So I think I will wait awhile before I head in there again ..pay attention to the time on my photos ...those elk are moving around well into mid morning ...Most be because it is in a hell hole with a creek running threw it  :dunno: :chuckle:

Can someone tell me how the cameras hold up in the rain ...? I set 2 cameras the other day ..walked about 3 hours in and now it is peeeeesing cats and dogs ..does the water interfere with the lens and taking clear photos or should I shelter them from the rain ??

I've had some blurry photos typically after a bear licks the cam. Few water drops here and there but never really had any issues with rain.

Rain should not affect the cameras.

Water on the lens will result in blurry pictures. Other than that, it shouldn't be an issue.
