X2.Some tolerate it I think it is because of curiosity.Some after a flash or two you will never see them again and not just bucks.

Depends on the deer. I have some deer that I will get 25 or more pictures of and it doesn't bother them. I actually watched a doe walk along the edge of a field one evening where my camera was and she ran like the wind when the flash went off.

I think it depends on the deer cause I've had constant pictures of the same deer in the same area. But I've also had where I get 1 picture (and my cameras are set up for 3 quick pics) and thats it. So they must jump out of the area. One tip though. If you are walking to your stand in the dark remember exactly where the camera is. If that flash goes off in your eyes you wont be able to see for 15 minutes. I know from experience, dude.
