Title: Life of a Cam
Post by: Wayne1 on September 16, 2010, 11:45:29 AM
How long do your cam's work properly before you have to replace them ?...  and what Cam are you using ? I'm usingf a Moultry D40...  worked great last year...   but think it may be sticking in the sleep mode longer than usual

I have had the same cams for several years and they work fine, well one takes crappy washed out pic's but the others work good  :dunno:

We have had ours for about three years now Wayne (moultrie d40). They still work good, but one has phased out the readout on the camera. Still takes good pictures and such but ensuring the settings are right is kinda tough.

Mine still take's great pic's...   but 2 days in a row...  I saw bear right in front of the cam...[the cam's only 195 yard's away from the house at the edge of one of my fields]...   so when I went down to pull the card....  it took about 10-15 seconds for the cam to come out of the sleep mode, with me looking into to lens's....  and there were no frigging pic's of bear that time...    but I do have 278 pic's of the weed's blowing in the wind. I've got dear, bear, yote's and coon's on the cam...  just thought it was odd it did'nt take the pic's when I knew there were bear no more than 12 feet in front of it..   :dunno:

I've had two cuddebacks for 4 years now and they still work as good as the day I bought them. Going on the second year with the Bushnell Trophy Cam.
