Default just set up my Bushnell 1.3 cam - flash update - cust. service update - new cam update

I finally got around to setting up my new Bushnell TS 1.3 MP cam. Set up was rather painless, however the battery installation was a bit difficult ("tight" fit & springs want to bend over). The actuall set up was fairly quick & easy. I really like the buckle on the strap. That makes attaching to a tree and adjusting extremely easy. All cams with straps should have a buckle. Makes it a "snap". (pun intended) Hope to have pictures to share soon.

Default RE: just set up my Bushnell 1.3 cam

well, i'm not too impressed with the pics from my Bushnell cam. They are very blurry. You can see what is there but quality is not very good. am I doing something wrong? Additionally, it takes a pic avery 30 sec. I didn't see that there was a way to adjust that - is there a way?

there is no way to speed up/slow down pic takiing that I know of. The only trouble i had when I first set this camera up is I had to set it lower than my old stealth cam.

just contacted Bushell customer service and they were very helpful. I can just send back the cam and they will fix/replace it. And they waived the $10 return shipping fee. Hopefully the next cam will work better.

well I just got my replacement back. I was pleasantly suprised to find that they upgraded me to the 2.1 MP model (11-9200). I can't wait to get it in action (actually can wait because I will probably wait until weather breaks and deer start hitting the food plot. Have to say the Bushnell customer service wasexcellent.

well, I finally set up the new 2.1 mp Bushnell that the company sent me as a replacement. The picture quality is rather good. It has taken 80 pics in last 3 days. The flash range seems a bit limited (I may also have the cam tipped a bit too much downward).
