Mini Wildlife Trail Camera with Night Vision 0.2S Trigger Motion Activated 20MP 1080P IP66 Waterproof Hunting Camera for Outdoor & Home security + Magnetic SD TF 3-in-1 Card Reader | M1
SKU: KF35.045
I live in a rural area and there is a lot of wildlife around.I attached this to a small tree and left it for a couple of days, I was able to see a few animals, however most were small birds and sunlight activating it when there are shadows from the trees.This being said it has proven a great bit of fun for the kids as they can see what wildlife looks like up close and which animals are around where we live

If you’re looking for a hunting camera and has a limited budget, best to go with this one. It came well packed and sealed. The camera in itself like any other wildlife camera is waterproof, as it really should for outdoor use. Picture quality is crisp and crystal clear. At night, It captures images without producing a bright flash which usually scare off animals. This is a good feature as I am also using it not only to catch animal activities in my garden but also opportunistic thieves. The half a second trigger speed is best for when we will be deer hunting in summer. Also worth to mention that It can playback videos or pictures. The camera supports up to 32GB of storage which is not included. You’ll need 8 AA batteries (not also included) which can last to 8months on a energy saving system or on a standby mode. Therefore, for the price, it is a good value for money .with upto 16mp it gives crystal clear images which is great when you want to catch animals in detail......excellent piece of kit for finding out whats moving about in your garden when your not round

This is my second wildlife camera – They are great fun.Firstly, you have no idea what is out there until you put the camera out. I had very low expectations but have seem foxes, badgers and deer with gratifying regularly. There is something about peering into the dark night and getting a glimpse of the largely unseen creatures with which we share our world. It makes me look at this place in a whole new lightAn secondly it is such a buzz. The thrill of the hunt where no-one gets hurt. The anticipation as you check the camera in the morning, the careful planning of the set up for the best pictures.In our house this has been elevated to a competitive sport – we strive to get the best 'captures'. It can be pretty intense. And the wildlife goes about it's normal business, as it did before we knew it was there.This camera is reliable and very easy to set up and use. The menu is user friendly and easy to navigate. You can change image quality, video length, and the time between photos. It also has a time-lapse function. It is reliably triggered and the photos are of adequate quality. The night photos obviously being less clear than the daytime, and it suffers from the same problem as my other camera at night, subjects too close to the camera are a white-out.This camera comes in at about half the cost of my other. The photos are of comparable quality and I would say that this is easier to set up and use.Overall I am very happy with this

This item arrived safe and well packaged.I needed a wildlife camera in order to obtain evidence of some foxes in my garden. My neighbour is adamant that she has seen some... but I think she is just going cuckoo!!I have set this up attached to my fence. I used the included strap as a temporary fixture. But if you wanted a more permanent fixture, the brackets are included too. Open it up to install batteries and memory card, then it seals up fully with the clip on the side. Totally weatherproof!!I have reviewed all of the footage so far. The pictures are crystal clear! I really wasn't expecting much from a box like this, but I was very pleasantly surprised! It has so far captured a few other nocturnal creatures, and I have some amazing footage... but no foxes yet!I highly recommend this product.

This is a camouflaged camera designed to be strapped to a tree or a post to record the local wildlife covertly. It comes with a fairly long green webbing strap for this purpose as well as an adjustable camera tripod for other mounting options, it has a standard 1/4 tripod thread on the rear and bottom for this or any other camera mounts you may have.It has a small 12 volt dc input at the base hidden under a rubber cover, no power supply is included but that is because it is designed to be used with batteries as there is rarely mains power in the woods where this is designed to be used.Batteries are also not included, you will need 8 x AA batteries but you should get a few months use out of them.The camera is hinged and two catches hold it together, there is also a place to use a padlock to lock it together.Once opened you can see the batter compartment on the rear and the controls and a small led screen to set up the camera and to playback any recordings & to view photos. You can also of course remove the SD card and insert it in a computer. It takes full sized SD cards, I use a 128gb Class 10 card, for hd video recording Class 10 is essential.One odd thing I noticed was you can’t access the menu unless you have a card inserted, no biggy but an unusual one that’s all.In the set up menu aremode selection - photo, video or photo & videophoto size 16mp or 12mpVideo size - 1920x1080 24fps, 1920x1080 15fps, 1280x720, 848x480 or 720 x 480Photo amount - 1 to 9Video length - 10 to 180 secondsInterval timeTimelapse on/offSide PIR on/offVolume Rec on/offAuto Power off - off/3/5/10 minsBacklight timeFlash LightTimerDate & TimeTime FormatTime StampCamera NamePasswordLanguageTV OutForma SD CardReset to FactorySystem Update/InfoAVI files 1920 x 1080 @ 26mbps 24 fpsAudio 128kbps 8,000hz 16 bit mono.1920 x 080@24fps for 30 seconds = 99mb

Having owned a trail camera a little while now of another brand but much lesser specification than this one, I can state straight away this is one big step forward from that ‘basic’ model. It comes with everything you need such as a nylon strap to secure to anything appropriate that makes it very handy for securing to most items found around the garden etc. as all you need then is set of batteries (8 of but so far seem to be lasting quite well with its 24 hour usage) plus a SD card of choice, all contained in a smart looking, descriptive box plus the instructions in English and German plus a very helpful 3 page ‘quick set up’ guide with illustrations in English. Once read up on, loaded with quality batteries, a 16GB SD card it was then sited outside on the wall close to some plants we have on a trellis frame and unless you know its there, it blends in very well due to its camouflage pattern casing that gives a quite wide view. The trigger response is very quick - light years in front of our other ‘basic’ model - with the infer-red sensor working very well indeed - with its central and two side sensors it catches just about everything in its range. The quoted 16 mp sensor/lens makes a good job of the day time photos with the quality of the night time ones (in black and white) not lagging far behind. There is a video setting (1080P HD video with good sound recording - we could detect footsteps on the gravel on the path!) which we tried to see how it worked and its as good as the photo side plus unlike our basic model, it has a built-in colour viewing screen you can view your shots on, which is very impressive as you don’t really need a computer to see them on initially. All in all, a very good package with a competitive price of around £58 (reviewed mid November 2019) makes it quite affordable, more so considering the specification.

Included in the box is the trail camera, a very long 2 meter fabric strap to tie the camera to trees/fence posts, a tripod mount, USB cable. You will need to provide 8xAA batteries and a SD card 64 GB Class 10 yourself.The camera looks durable and well built out of the box. The side locks that hold the camera closed gives a good seal around the camera providing a IP66 waterproof design. The camera was very easy to install in our garden using the provided fabric strap mounted the camera securely around one of our trees. Unfortunately we had a little trouble setting up the camera as the instructions are confusing and badly worded. I was unable to view images on the cameras internal screen so had to keep removing the SD card and using it on a PC to view any images.We have yet to capture any images of wildlife due to the winter weather, however I have managed to capture several images of myself visiting our bins. It appears that this camera is not only for capturing wildlife but can also be used as a security camera. The camouflage design makes it hard to spot so it's perfect for this purpose. The daytime images are HD perfect quality. The nighttime images are of poorer quality due to the grainy appearance however the focus is still sharp.

I was so excited to get this as I have been getting a nightly visit from a hedgehog and I wanted to capture it on camera. Sadly no hedgehog (a bit late in the season now tbh) but I did capture one of my cats in the act of carrying a rat!I used an old (ish) 8GB SD card that I no longer use by SanDisk (Ultra II SDHC). I also used Amazon Basic rechargeable batteries with high amp given the length of time this would be in use even with auto turn off.I selected the mode that captures both photo and video. It was easy to set up and the menu is pretty clear & intuitive.In the morning I noted there was condensation inside (on the screen and the batteries were very cold to the touch) but then it's the first week of November and temperatures got as low as 7°C overnight.The battery power was in the red despite being high amp and with auto turn off after 3 minutes. So it's a very power-hungry device. Depending on the frequency of use you'll be going through an awful lot of batteries.Overall though I was very impressed with the easy setup and the results. Highly recommend.
