Those are good questions. I just got the Trophycam about a week ago and set it up for the first time Good Friday. I noticed that you could adjust the delay clear down to 2-3 sec. and all the way up to an hour. The camera seemed pretty fast to me when I set it up in the yard just to test it. When I got it to the woods and mounted it on the tree, it took 14 pics of me putting it in it's security box so I guess it's pretty fast. But not as fast as my RC55. I noticed when I put the 2gig card into it and set it on 8mp the counter said there was room for 1800 pics. I plan on leaving it out about 3-4 weeks before I retrieve it......if I can stand it that long!

P.S. almost forgot, it will take up to 3 pics in a row.
