Hope this one sticks around. Cam shoots pretty nice. My problem I had was I secured it to a t-post and it got knocked off sometime early Friday morning. Did a better job on it today.

So more from the farm I am hunting on. To bad I punched my deer tag opening day but maybe this one will stick around next year. Don't have a bull tag to put on this one but hopefully he has some followers who have spikes.

So now the camera won't stop taking pictures. Swapped sd cards yesterday and put fresh barriers in. This morning 4700 plus pics. Shooting every 10 second. Single shot set 10s delay. Sensor set on low. Any ideas?

I would try taking the batteries out of it and let it sit for a few days, a week is better if you have the patience. It's worked for me a few times, with different cameras that weren't working correctly.

I took them put for 15 minutes but will try a couple days. Early archery is over today so i can live a couple days

The only other thing is the sd card. Trail cams can be picky sometines. The new card you put in when you swapped cards.. Was it the same kind? Did you for at it on your computer first?

I didn't format it at all. Bought new put it in. Viewed it on a nook, computer and digital camera. Second card was put of a digital camera. Doing same thing. Just bought a 4gb card yesterday. Stuck it in doing same thing. Won't format through trail cam. Gives me a a21 error. Can't change time put date either.

Not saying this is the problem but a card taken from your digital camera and put in your trail camera could cause issues. I always format the cards in my computer before I use them in the trail cam.

I have been reading that on other forums. But the problem from that is usually sdful error and won't take pictures. This thing won't stop taking pictures. Awesome pics to just every 10 seconds. Lol sitting in my blind trouble shooting my trail cam. What a way to hunt.

Most trail cams have an option to delete photos, this also usually formats the card to the camera. Putting a card in any of the readers you mentioned will add a format folder for that device, and these folders may be what is causing your issue. Insert new empty card, select delete photos in your setup menu, then go through and check all your settings. I have seen before when the batteries are removed it goes back to default settings, and needs to be reset to desired settings. Hope this helps.

Ok, I looked up the manual. Open the door, turn camera off, remove batteries for several minutes, replace batteries, turn camera on, and hold down the up and down arrow buttons to format card (this will delete any photos on the card). Also if your camera is set to 10s delay make sure there is no grass or branches out to 80 yards thatare triggering the camera. I know that seems like a long distance, but I have seen it happen before. I get to do a lot of work with trail cams and it seems that most of the time glitches are caused by unformatted cards. Unfotunatly the primos cam is one of the few I have never worked with.

I was sitting in the blind and did all that still getting an a21 error and not formatting. Just bought it so warranty time.

You still might try giving it a week without batteries installed. It may "magically" begin working again. Just be sure to use a card that has been formatted in your computer first. Leaving the batteries out for a period of time seems to reset them. It's worked for me a few times. Never with my Truth Cam 35 though- that cam has always worked flawlessly. And it's out in the woods more often than not. I'd say 8 months out of 12, and I've had it for almost two years.

It is an awesome cam good pics just started doing it yesterday.
