Title: Single Picture vs Video
Post by: grundy53 on March 24, 2014, 07:58:21 PM: Sometimes a picture doesn't tell the whole story. I checked one of my cams today and got this picture and video. If I hadn't had it on video mode I never would of known this guy had 2 buddies with him.

Yeah, I usually use a 3 shot burst. But video mode only allows one pic.

But with the video mode on, it allows you to see so much more that normally you would have missed since it snaps a pic then video.

You'll miss a lot otherwise. Especially if you're trying to get a good idea on deer/elk numbers.

If you're monitoring feeding areas, I think pictures are find because then the animals will be around longer :twocents:
