spandit Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 My trailcam has been set up at the top of my high seat for over 2 weeks, set to take a picture every 10 minutes so I can edit together a timelapse video of the spring coming to my planted trees... Went to swap the SD card over this evening, in the rain, to find that it hasn't taken a single picture... There's always next year, I suppose...

la bala Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 Could have been worse, somebody could have nicked the camera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spandit Posted April 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 Maybe the neighbour who complained about it went and formatted the card... :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shootgun Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 As far as i'm aware they don't take any pictures unless motion or heath is detected. At least mine won't... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spandit Posted April 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 No, mine generally takes them as a timelapse - I'd already made a preliminary video with them. Oh well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rim Fire Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 Could have been worse, somebody could have nicked the camera.

winnie&bezza Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 Afraid to say it's gone and 'far away on the other side'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rim Fire Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 (edited) How do you know the exact time unless 1) you pinched it, OR 2) they left you the SD card to see the footage Lol The Trailcam that was up the tree was sending pics straight to our laptops as been said they work on motion so when the ***** was in the process of nicking it the camera sent its last pic at that time as it was being prised it off the tree because it was in a steel case that you can buy and allso drillrd to the tree and locked with a padlock Edited May 2, 2016 by Rim Fire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had a passcode so hope the scum never got any use from it. Did you get any pics of them ? I read a post about a fella who advertised the pics he'd been sent off his on the local FB groups and for the name, messages the bloke threatening to take to police etc and had the money off the fella 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
