What's your experience with a trail (stealth aka night) camera?  Brand?  Happy or not?

I borrowed one from my brother and set it up this weekend to find out who was stealing my newspaper.  Takes great day pics and video but nights was grainy at times.  I'll see what I get tomorrow after I take down and post a pic.  Did see that there was quite a bit of foot and vehicle traffic walking by the house or stopping in the road next to it after 2am I was unaware of  :scope:

Thanks.  What stops by our house is wildlife, may well be a bear.  Would like to see if these cameras do well at night as promised.

Anyone else used one?

Here's some at night and day. I had to reduce resolution to load but days were fine.  Night lighting in the area would affect the night vision but the closer it was the more sharper it was  for viewing.  Out in the woods it took good 15ftr shot of dear.   This was a Moultrie A-5

The pics are reasonably good for night time. 

The A5 has a pretty good ranking at Amazon, though plenty of haters too.  They're all affordable so I'm likely to take the plunge.

Thanks.  :cheers:

Its big 3 X 6 x 7.  For video its only 10secs a clip and a 1 minute delay time between shots for video and still.  There are hunting and sporting places that got cams on sale now since hunting season is over (here anyway)

That's the first I've seen a new Chally with a chrome rear bumper "cap", is that your car? Diggin' the window louvers, too. :2thumbs:

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

Yes that's mine and thanks.  It's a 2010 SRT

Those and the other add on trim gives it a little more old school to me.  It had them on it when I bought it.  Breaks up all that same color and nobody else around here has them.
