Best tip around.............

DO NOT BUY A STEALTH 3.0 DIGITAL GAME CAMERA!!! It's a battery eating, no picture taking, piece of crap.
TRUE!

If you have problems with taking pic. of nothing look a little closer. Compair the pics with eachother and pay close attn. to the leaves and branches. These things will take pic. of leaves moving, and the pic. should show you which ones to remove.

Hi there,

This is the wife speaking Today we went out to retrieve my husband's cuddeback that he had placed on a trail on the 8th of July. Imagine our delight to find that we had a number of photographs & video. Woohoo. Though upon viewing them at home, turned into a boohoo session. About 17 of the photos appeared solarized (term used in a photo editor). Such as the photo I attached.

The first shots were fine as were the last.
For reasons unknown, many of the shots inbetween turned out with a solarized/split scene appearance. Ugh! My first thought was that the camera was at fault, however...if that were the case, would not all the photos have turned out bad? So, I'm am wondering if it is the media card? Anyone experience this or have and knowledge/theory of why so many photos turned out like the one below?
To note, all the photos that turned out bad, were dated 1/1/2003 1:00 am (incorrect, of course) However, the dates & times were correct in looking at the "Event.txt"

Any ideas as to what is causing these aberrations would very much be appreciated.

~Kate

I'll attach 2 more photos so that you can see the variations that we've had. If I knew how to stitch the photos together in my editor, I would.

We just got a digital Stealth Cam. Using the tips from this forum for placement of the camera have really helped improve the pictures we are getting. Is there any way you could create an ongoing list of these tips on your main website? I would definitely print it out and use them. I had trouble finding this kind of information and just happened to come across this thread by chance.
