Trail cam settings?
« on: July 18, 2011, 06:00:30 PM »
Just bought my first trail cam a primos truth cam 35. I was wondering how you guys set your camera settings as far as burst and time between pictures. Also any one with the truth cam 35 what do sensitivity works the best for you???  Thanks in advance.

That is  great little camera for the cost and Primos has great customer service if you ever have any issues. I personally never go with burst because I only need one pic at a time. The delay I go with depends on how much activity I get in the area. If it is an area with a lot of activity I go with a longer delay. I never set any camera delay to longer than a couple of minutes. I have always gone with the highest sensitivity.

I don't have a Primos but with the ones I have I like to go with at least a three shot burst. If you only get one picture chances are good that it will be blurry, or too dark, or the head is turned the wrong way, or a number of other things, so that you can't see the animal as well as you'd like.
