Averege hanging height of cameras should 3-4ft that camera also has a laser aim you can use that to tell the angle of your camera you should be able to detect deer size animals up to around 35 ft. Smaller critters like rabbits and such will need to be pretty much right in front of the cam like a few ft or closer, these cams are made purposely to try avoid smaller critters like rabbits, skunk, coons, ect. I have gooten birds before right in front of the camera. Your camera should have a ir aim mode too on that you can walk in front and around and the camera light will blink when it detects you and that will help on placement of the camera. Putting your cam on 2 or 3 pics at a time will help capture more game too.
