need help
I just purchased a Wildgame Cloak7 trail camera. No matter what I do I get a very poor picture. I've changed SD cards and this doesn't help. The picture comes through very white. I realize this isn't an expensive camera but it should be able to perform right out of the box. What am I doing wrong? Thank you for any help.

Which brand SD card did you use? Also, which kind of batteries?
Reason I ask is I spent a couple hours at Cabelas buying a game camera and the section manager and his best game cam guy shared their experiences with customers bringing back game cameras. They said the 2 biggest issues were brand of SD cards (they recommend Sandisk and, of course, Cabelas) and type of batteries (Lithium batteries give you full power until they die whereas alkaline batteries apparently decrease their power output as their juice runs lower).

I have heard similar stories about Wildgame cameras producing whiteout pictures before too. You can start by eliminating obvious problems like making sure camera is not facing sun. Is the pictures all white only during day or dusk/dawn?
Either way I would recommend you to look for something better whenever you get change.
I do not know how much you want to spend, but I have had good experience with Moultrie cams, A 20 was model I think.
