Trail cam settings?
« on: July 18, 2011, 06:00:30 PM »

That is  great little camera for the cost and Primos has great customer service if you ever have any issues. I personally never go with burst because I only need one pic at a time. The delay I go with depends on how much activity I get in the area. If it is an area with a lot of activity I go with a longer delay. I never set any camera delay to longer than a couple of minutes. I have always gone with the highest sensitivity.

I don't have a Primos but with the ones I have I like to go with at least a three shot burst. If you only get one picture chances are good that it will be blurry, or too dark, or the head is turned the wrong way, or a number of other things, so that you can't see the animal as well as you'd like.
