Default How do you stand it??

Leaving your trail camera out until the roll is finished!![][:@] I checked mine yesterday and there is 12 taken with 12 to go. I battled my temptation to take it out and have it developed with only 12 on there but decided to leave it out for a few more days. I'm already starting to get the shakes with anticipation of what's on there. Ahhhhhhhhh the thought of the unknown [:'(] I may need therapy before I check it again Tuesday.

I don't. Sometimes I do just get the film developed with 12 pictures on the roll. I was never known for patience....especially after a full week of waiting.

I've been known to bring my film in with as few as 4 or 5 photos on it.

Ya'll need to get high tech and go digital.

Film developing would cause me to go bankrupt!

I couldn't stand having to wait. I'd buy rolls with the minimum amount of exposures and then go to a developer that only charges for the good prints. That might save a little bit.

To get the camera filled you have to leave it out for a whole 24 hours. That's all it takes here in the Petting Zoo state.

I agree, go digital and you'll never go back. As cheap as they are noe, there's really no excuse not to go digital. The Moultrie Spycam can be had for less than $100 now.

its off and on where i have my camera out, i put it out one night because alot of the deer were moving at night there, and after about a day and a half, the counter read 42. It is set for 2 pictures every 6 minutes when it gets activated though. Anyways, i swapped the film and took the other to get developed and went out there about 2 days later and the counter only read 8. But then i checked it the next day and it was in the 30s again.....Those damn deer can be tricky.
