Nice trail camera review.We have 6 cameras out that use a total of 48 AA batteries.I went to HarborFreight and bought the 4 foot outlet strip with 12 outlets,rechargeable batteries,and chargers.We have been using them for 3 hunting season now with no issues.
Hey Southern Preacher! Great call on that! I’ve used some rechargeables before and should definitely invest in more of a bulk rechargeable battery option. Maybe I’ll do a video once I figure out what product I like best. Have a great weekend👍🏻
I also own several of the mini Vanbars which work great for around the home because the the battery life as not as long as others since they only take 4 AAs instead of 8 and I had to send back a dud once, but I also have one of their full sized cameras and a latch just broke off recently under normal use. You get what you pay for.
Enjoyed the show as always. I have 2 out of the 5 you showed. The Ceyomur & GardePro are good cameras. Doing a good job. One you didn’t have that’s cheap is the Wosports. I figure it would not last long but I have had it 2 years and it’s my go to camera any time. Thanks Duane
Hey Bruce! Thanks so much! Much appreciated! I’ve seen the Wosports around, but haven’t had a chance to check them out. Good call. I’ll have to look into them.👍🏻 Thanks for watching!
I always buy cheaper or budget cameras. I have a Ceyomur thats worked pretty good so far. I actually have a ceyomur thats been out for almost 2 months. need to go check on it. Great review keep up the good work.
Hey thanks so much! I appreciate the feedback! I really like the Ceyomur solar camera and the iZEEKER iG220 solar camera as well. I batteries makes life easier. Thanks for watching 👍🏻
Great review thanks. I've got 4 of the A1's and I love them. One of the 4 died and I used the extended warranty. Many of the cameras have gone from a 12 V auxiliary plug To a six volt plug. The correct 6 volt cord is difficult to find
This is a great video! It would be awesome if you had a roll up chart at the end that showed the performance comparisons. Which one has the best overall performance for security of my wooded boundary of my rural home? I want to catch video of trespassing neighbors so I can send them a letter to protect my title. Looking for reliability, far detection range and battery life and day and night capability. Currently using Apeman H45s and they are ok to so so........ and have a really limited detection range.
Hey thanks so much! Have you checked out cellular trail cams? You’ll get a notification whenever movement is detected. They might be good for your situation. I have a ton of videos on them. Check them out if you get a moment 👍🏻
Been going with the 1520p don't like me night vision on it just got in the mail g300 which is also known for 1519 p definitely going to look into the your that you have
Thanks for this excellent helpfull video. Im thinking of getting the izeeker ig400 & ig600. Do you know if they have the dual mode for both still pictures AND videos or is it only either, or? I love the fact that you can use rechargeable batteries.
Hey L! I haven’t tried the 600, but the 400 has the photos and videos feature (I’m guessing the 600 would as well). I also really like that front facing LCD screen to setup your shooting area. Thanks for watching!
Really enjoyed the review. Seems some of the cameras were duds so not to be good comparisons. Was one of the cameras a 940 nm LED? (no glow)That would show a different range and contrast. The three detector cameras offer "faster" detection if the motion is uniform. Trigger speeds relate to when the buffer starts and that buffer speed can be different depending on the processors. Your real-world test is the way to go. ( video trigger speed can be 10 X longer than photo) The most common reason for shorter than programmed night video is batteries which can be aggravated by cold.
Hey frankenfoamy! Thanks for the insight and your perspective. None of these were no glow although some were a lot more subtle at night than the others. Thanks for watching and best of luck this season 👍🏻
Hey thanks Erin! Check out this card reader video. It’s my “go-to” for viewing photos and videos from my trail cams on my phone ruclips.net/video/r98AS4c_s0I/видео.html
Hey Steven you will definitely want to use the highest quality video setting. If you are having problems at night, you may want to consider a no glow camera
Hi Duane, I love your videos. I am new to trail cameras, and I am having a hard time finding the right one for what I need. Do you know which cellular trail camera I could have send a picture to my phone every 30 minutes without motion? Even better if I could only have it do this during certain times of the day. Thank you!
Hey John! Thanks so much man. I really appreciate that! I'm trying to think of any cellular trail cameras I know of that have a scheduling feature. There are some that have a time lapse mode (which would be interesting), but the closest feature I can think of is "On Demand" photos and videos. You would have to physically go into the app on your phone and request a photo whenever you want one. I will be reviewing the Stealth Cam Deceptor soon and it has this feature. The new Muddy Matrix also has the on-demand functionality. I did a review of the Reolink Keen Ranger PT which enables you to look in live and pan, tilt and zoom. ruclips.net/video/l_ADV259wC8/видео.html If I think of anything else, I will keep you posted. Let me know if you have any other questions and thanks for watching!
@@mountainbuck this is very helpful, thank you! Does Timelapse send me a photo every 30 minutes to my phone or would I need to extract the SD card to get all the pictures?
@@johnnutt1323 I found this info on the Moutlrie Mobile Edge (I have a review on that as well). support.moultriemobile.com/hc/en-us/articles/8061685484823-Manage-My-Time-lapse-Setting It looks like it may be what you are looking for, but it really comes down to what interval you can set it at. I haven't played around with that feature and no longer have the camera, so I can't test it. It would send the photos to your phone. I will be checking out the new Moultrie Mobile Edge Pro and if it has the time lapse setting, I will check it out.
Picture/video quality doesn't mean squat if the camera misses good picture opportunities. I've gone to all Garde Pro E5 cameras this year. I picked up the last one for $39.99 with free shipping (Amazon Lightning sale) a week or two ago. My other 4 were on sale for approximately $55 each. The E5 does everything I want in a trail camera. Set up is easy, & it even changes time for daylight savings if you pick the correct time zone. I only do pics, and I would never set a camera above 8 MP. Night pics are much better with fewer pixels. Less pixels means larger ones that capture more light. High MP is a marketing joke! A trail camera is useless if it doesn't detect game going by, and these cameras are great! Night pics of these cameras are much better than my past Browning Dark Ops which costed 2 to 3 times more to purchase. I have 4 Dark Ops and none of them work after a couple years. I am done with brand name high priced cameras. I experimented with two E5 cameras last year, and I was so impressed. I have high hopes for these cameras. I wish models weren't constantly changing.
Hey DriftlessHunter! Thanks for the input. I’ll have to try that E5. I’ve seen it listed as a top seller at times but never pulled the trigger. Thanks for the information 👍🏻
@@mountainbuck I'm not sure the E5 is much better than the A3, but they work better than my 4 expensive Browning Dark Ops that no longer work (each one having different issues, too) at all. I just know the detection range of the E5 is good, trigger speed is good, picture quality is decent, night pics are great for a "no glow". I see no reason to pay more for a brand name.
Just a FYI everyone never set a trail camera over it's native sensor resolution. Interpolated images are created when the camera digitally adds extra pixels for every real pixel the camera creates. Worst case - each additional pixel added is identical to the first. So a green pixel is just split into 4, 8 or 16 additional green pixels. This neither increases the quality of the picture or allows you to zoom in to view additional details. Best Case - additional pixels are added using computer algorithms to guess the color of the added pixels. In either case, the interpolated file size is exponentially larger creating longer recovery times and consuming vast amounts of additional storage space. all but one of these cameras above have a native 3MP sensor. 99% of Trail camera companies use Interpolation as a way to boast about a fancy camera when in reality their selling you a product that can never shoot even close to 16,32,64 megapixels. My advice as I said above just set the camera to it's native resolution and you will capture way more pictures and videos and take up less space well making the cameras reaction time WAY WAY faster.
I use my cameras to observe wildlife and will not use lower than 30 frames per second to avoid blur. Many cameras claim to be 30fps but are lower at night. That sometimes limited me to 720p. The newer cameras are better but you have to confirm with the cheaper ones.
It was truly awesome to see a fair trail camera review where you used your own photos and videos. I truly appreciate the reviews of these products.
Hey thanks so much! I appreciate the kind words and your feedback!

Field use conditions and battery life would be interesting for the different types and configurations.
Vanbar cameras are incredible! Super inexpensive, great trigger speed, and no issues so far. Love em! Best value I've found so far.
Hey Isaac! Thanks for the heads up! I’ll have to check them out. Thanks for watching 👍🏻

Excellent job buddy. We enjoyed it
Thanks Trophy Hunter and Hunter! Appreciate you guys👍🏻

rating and amazon badge doesn't mean shit sadly. Most of these Chinese companies make fake reviews and amazon slaps that badge on any turd.
