To Catch A...
« on: February 05, 2009, 08:49:20 PM »
Somebody got into my truck last night and went through all my stuff. Took a couple cd's and a radio scanner. I figure it was punk kids. My question is whether any of you guys have ever used a trail camera to catch a criminal? Have you ever thought of it? Have you ever heard of it? Also, how much noise do these things make when they take a photo? Would a person hear it taking pictures of them?

Thanks

Slamadoo

Chances are, their heart is going to be pounding so hard, they wont hear a tiny click. The most noise our Moultrie makes is that of the little thing that pops up over the lens.  :chuckle:

Ive thought about this too. Only thing I guess is that you would need an infrared flash or they'll most likely get your camera too. :chuckle:
