Title: trail cams for $50
Post by: huntergreg on October 23, 2010, 06:38:51 PM: I went to wall-mart and picked one up. They were only $50. I set it up in the back yard and it works great. I will be back down there to pick up a few more. There cheap and work good at night also. TASCO brand 3mp

Never had one before so I figured I try it and if stolen would only be out fifty bucks. I set it up and tested it out. I could walk back in forth, fast/slow, approach from front, back away and the thing rarely took a photo. Now I don't have any experience with trail cams but it seems like a POS. Goes to show you get what you payed for it.

Post by: WestPlains_Drifter on November 07, 2010, 02:30:48 PM: I got one, its not great. I don't have a problem with it not taking pics, sometimes its a little too sensitive. I.e. (branches, sun, moon, birds) so I get too many pics. But for $50 thats what i expected. I had it on public land for 3 months, didn't really care if it were stolen. But it wasn't.

Post by: huntergreg on November 16, 2010, 09:05:31 PM: well I let it soak over in randal but stupid me :bash: forgot to turn the dang thing on or I hit the power button when I closed it up. Sat over there for a week. lots of fresh tracks on the trail I had it on. Here are a couple deer from the front porch in stead. :chuckle:

Post by: Windwalker on November 18, 2010, 09:46:09 PM: Have the same issues with the $50 W-mart camera. :bdid: Think its tainted from being in their store. So far have gone through quite a few apples to capture one scratchy picture of a deer's butt. >:( Aggravating for the kids. They are waiting for me to spring for a high dollar trail cam that actually works. Trigger is so slow the deer get bored and leave before it snaps a picture. :bash:
