RE: Digital Trail camera in the cold
 

There have been pic after pic posted on this site from this past winter from all around the North Country and throughout the North and Midwest winters. The Leaf River units take an excellent pic and the batteries will last for atleast a month in the coldest field conditionsand over 2 months under "normal conditions. I have thousands of images from mine in every weather condition the Midwest has thrown at them. The best digis I have found.

I have a Moultrie digital, the thing I found is the 6 volt rechargeables last alot longer in cold temps. I bought cheap batteries when I got it and they lasted about a week or 400 pics, but if they died you lost all pics. With the rechargeables it's about 3 weeks with some life left on the batt. The Moultrie digitals are about $130.00 at www.archeryexperts.com with the charger and battery for $30.00.

I know our personal digital camera here at home has a somewhat hesitant flash when taking a pic. I am interested in getting a digital scout camera but am wondering how fast the flash activates on some of the different models mentioned here. I guess I am wondering if you have any experience w/ getting missed pics or pics of deer rumps and stuff. Thanks

That would be the IR sensor not the flash. On occasion if a animal is moving at a good pace, but rarely. The flash on my cam has not failed yet to catch game. IMO the more time you take and detail in the setup reduces chances for bad pics.

You can't see their breath but you can tell it's cold.
