Default Trail cams

I bought a Moultrie Game cam 2 and have shot up 2 rolls of film. Out of 2 rolls I have two pictures of deer and nothing else. It took about 8 pictures the other day with nothing but forest. All pictures were about 6 to 8 minutes apart. My camera is mounted on a post so the wind does' nt effect it if thats possible. Will wind blown limbs set them off? If so I guess I will spend big bucks on film. Anybody solved the false shots problem yet?

I have the a Trailtimer Photohunter and rarely get false shots. Usually if you look hard enough there will a be coon, squirrel or maybe a chipmunk in the grass. Not sure why you' re getting a false shot, but you shouldn' t!

Good Luck!

Just the opposite of my problem. I need T-Rex to walk in front of my stealth cam and wave his arms it seems to set it off.

It' s been out for two weeks with only 3 pictures taken.


(Make sure you trim close branches that can blow around in the wind)
