I ran some more tests.
I placed each camera side by side in the back yard set at "motion detection" with 60 second intervals and used small bamboo plant stakes to mark the distances at 20', 30', 40', 50', and 60'.
I went out while there was still good daylight and and again well after dark.
I would start at the 60' marker count to 65 Mississippi and move around a bit.
Then I would move forward to the 50' marker, counting to 65 Mississippi and move around a bit and repeat the process all the way through the markers and then forward to 10'.
The Moultrie gives zero indications when it takes photos, but the Blusmart has a double red blink that is noticeable if you're looking right at it.
The results showed that the Blusmart took photos when I started to make motions. The Moultrie took photos, but most of them were taken at unexpected moments. I would estimate they were taken after I had moved forward and had counted to around 30 Mississippi.
The Moultrie took better nighttime pics, but the timing of the pics is off. I'll have to run some more tests to figure out what's going on with it.
As for distances, the Moultrie took a couple out past 40' but I would place it where it is going to be within 30'-35' of a trail and probably make efforts to keep it well within that range.
The Blusmart detected motion out to the 60' marker but was very consistent within 50'.
Here are a couple of the nighttime pics at 20'
