Default Trophy cam 2010 pics

Went tonight to get pics from the first day out.... the pics in my opinion look pretty bad too washed out it was a bright day but it looks like you should save your money... very disappointed to say the least.. see what you think here are some samples the night pic seamed ok ... I put it on video mode for tomorrow to see how they look. would you be satisfied with these daytime pics???

I think the night picture would be satisfactory. However more night pictures would give a better comparison. The day one is definitely washed out. Check how you have the camera positioned in relation to the rising and setting sun. In my area I would face it in a northerly direction due to the sun not passing over head from east to west as it does in the summer. You may already have it set up this way. Just a suggestion. Good luck and thanks for sharing.

maybe your cam is set up towards the sun...that would easily cause the pics to turn out the way they are

From the way the shadows are laying I think You may have the camera aimed a little too much in an East/West direction?Maybe turn it to where the shadows falls over the top of the camera and to the left side like the 2 Turkeys are facing in your first picture?Still its not a really bad picture and it is pretty clear.....what megapixels did You have the camera set on or will it only take the 8.0 megapixel pictures only?The night IR picture was fairly clear....give it a few more weeks and try different settings/options.
