How do you guys look at your pictures from your trail cameras when in the field? I usually just swap sd cards but sometimes it would be nice to just look at them on my phone while there. I have a stealth camera sd card reader but it seems to work sporadically. Any suggestions?
I got a little card reader I just plug into my phone when I check my cards.

Think I will pic up a card reader this year, I hate getting home just to figure out a spot was not a good set knowing the camera is still in that spot for another 1-3 weeks.

Not wanting to chew up battery life on my phone I bought a stealth cam card reader. Sometimes I'll have a couple thousand pics to look at per camera and the reader has functioned flawless for me. Battery life is good to.
For the same weight penalty, you'd be way ahead to carry a portable battery bank and look at the photos on your phone. :twocents:

Probably. But I like packing extra AA batteries to especially for my sets 6 miles from the truck. It's helps me stay in shape. :chuckle:

I use one of these too. I used to use the chip readers that would plug in your phone but couldn't find one that would work for USB-C so I got a stealth cam reader and like it way better.

For those of you that use a dedicated card reader like the stealth one…..Will it read any brand of Tcam card, or just stealth? Sometimes different formats for different cams, so a stealth reader may not work for a bushnell or browning or whateverI have Moultrie, stealth, Browning, bushnell. It works with all of them.

And I've tried the plug into phone readers and never had much luck getting one that worked right for me.

Can't speak for others but I know my Stealth cam reader works on Cuddieback, Moultrie and Wild Game Innovations cameras

I may have to buy one. The phone reader things work, but I have to remove the phone case for it to work …..PIA
