Who all is using the Wildview digitals?

xOZx — Wed, 05 Dec 2007 08:20:50 GMT

Just curious on feedback for them. MadJack posted up that Cabelas page and there were only 2 feedback, one great and one horrible. From what I see on here, most are happy with them...perhaps a couple of hiccups?

What trail cam also records sound with the video?

Flintlock1776 — Sun, 05 Apr 2009 19:43:15 GMT

Anybody have one of these or ever heard anything about them? I just ordered one from Cabela's and am excited to get it to try it out. Read a lot of good reviews on it but would feel better to hear reviews from you guys if you've used them.

trail camera help?

kristopher — Tue, 06 Jan 2009 05:52:14 GMT

I had a Stealth Cam IR430 and it missed more pics than it got. Trigger speed was very slow and I had it over a pile of apples. Are the Cuddabucks as good as all the advertised claims? I am willing to spend the extra money to get a good one, but I don't need all the bells and whistles. Any help?

Bino's

NerdHick — Wed, 23 Jan 2008 09:47:19 GMT

Well I was in the market for some new bino's and since IBO rules state 8 power I made a little investment...

I was after some new ones from Busnell but they were on back order FOREVER so I picked up these instead. The price was right and I'll test them out at 3-D tonight!

If I can get enough interest in purchasing them, they will make a special run in Mossy Oak Treestand for those that want one. I need a least 8 of you to show interest in buying them to get the order going.

Call Issac at 800-269-1875, tell him you talked to Todd and let him know which one(s) you want to order. I am looking at the 4500 and the Superday.

These are very good packs, several of my friends have them and love them.

Any tips for Mule deer hunting?

jessehopkins — Sat, 13 Sep 2008 23:21:14 GMT

As the subject says, I need some tips for mule deer hunting. last year i got a 3x3 but the only reason i got it was someone in my camp told me they saw it bedded down and took me to where he was. Yes it was a nice little buck, but I want to do it the real way. more like not having to rely on the people in my camp site. as i said anything helps and i would appreciate it. THANKS!

Trailcam life expectancy

pabowhunter — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 11:58:42 GMT

I've been having some issues with some of my trailcams. I was just wondering what others are seeing for lifespan of thier trailcams. Here is where I'm at with two of mine.

One is a Stealthcam STC-WD1, this one takes a black picture quite often. I thought it was the flash from the timestamp but after this morning I don't think so. The first pix of me approaching was okay, then two blackouts. This cam is 2.5 years old.

Another is a Wildview X3, the last two times I've had it out it's taken less than 20 pix and has dead batteries when I check it a week or so later. This cam is less than a year old.

What are others seeing for a lifespan? Anyone have cams that have been good to then for 5+ years or so? Are the more expensive cams worth it when it comes to lifespan?

Canon Gl 1

NostalgicImages — Fri, 11 Jul 2008 10:04:56 GMT

I have been filming with a canon gl1 for a few months now and love it. It's light and creates great footage. Mini-dv is a huge step up from the hi-8 i formerly used.

New Trail Cam Security Box

TheRomer — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 19:11:31 GMT

The Bear box i got for the wildview 2 did not secure the external Battery so we wasnt useing the battery.(witch we did not like)

I had a electric box just sitting around, so i transformed it into a security box that will hold the cam and the external battery.

we will put the cheapo cam in the bear box, it dont use a external battery.

I took the door off and welded a bracket to hold the cam up and another to hold the cam on and cut out the hole for the flash,sensor,camera, and the display.

Then i let the boy paint the inside black and i painted the out side John Deer Green lol thats all i had at the time.

Then i put the cam and battery in to make sure it all fits good.

I decided i didnt like the green, So i camoed it in MO Background. all that is left to do is put the laminate i got ordered for it to protect the camo from fadeing out.

solar power conversion?

jod — Fri, 28 Mar 2008 22:33:59 GMT

anybody out there ever try a conversion from rechargeable 12 volts to solar? i saw moultrie has a solar 12 volt is why i'm asking ,seems like you could get one and if the jack doesn't fit you could go to radio shack and and get a plug that would. just wondering if anybody out there had tried this before and what the results were.ANYBODY out there tried pairing a wildview with a moultrie solar panel?

trigger distance

pabowhunter — Mon, 14 Apr 2008 10:51:48 GMT

I'm a little amazed here. That tractor tripped this camera from the road. That's got to be 80 yards or so away. Cars would trip it also.

Camera problems reading a card

pabowhunter — Wed, 16 Jan 2008 14:07:19 GMT

Has anyone had any problems with a camera reading a card that was used in a different camera?

I set up a Wildview X3 camera and used a card from one of my other cams, a Stealthcam. I inatalled new batteries and set the time. When I left it the display showed 237 pix already on the card. A week later I check it and it still showed 237 pix and the display was flashing which I thought was strange. I turned it off and it wouldn't shut down. I ended up pulling a battery to get it to shut off. I swapped the card out and tyurned it back on only to find that now the batteries are dead. So I brought it home, put new batteries in, a blank card and checked it out here at the desk. All seems to be fine.

In the manual it says to only use a blank card. Do you think that would happen if the pictures already on the card are more pixels than the camera is capable of it gets confused? I also noticed I had a pst file on there for Outlook, I'm sure that didn't help. I just thought it was strange that it would lock up and drain the batteries like that.

Digital Binoculars

Ryno — Sat, 24 Nov 2007 17:48:32 GMT

Hi, I'm looking into buying a pair of binoculars with the digital camera capabilities.. I have heard a wide range of opinions on these binoculars so I was wanting to know, If this type of binocular is good? What is the best brand of the digital binocular? If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

Anybody tried the Cuddeview?

DoubleTake — Fri, 28 Sep 2007 14:19:51 GMT

I was about to purchase the new Cuddeview and was wondering if anyone had one or read reviews on it.

I gave in...& bought a Moultrie 4.0 (edit)..

FL_Cracker — Fri, 07 Sep 2007 12:25:42 GMT

I can't wait to put this out at my new club.

Do you guys think it will be alright to put it up on the same tree as my ladder stand or close? I've got lots of corn out all in that area (if they haven't eaten it all already).

Need some help...

FL_Cracker — Mon, 17 Sep 2007 08:41:32 GMT

Alright, so I bought 2 x 2.0GB cards to swap out and what not in my trailcam. I was able to view the pix on my Nikon digital cam but when I put the 2.0GB in my card reader that goes into the USB port, it says nothing is there. I have a 1.0GB card for my Nikon that is made by the same folks, do you all think it could be that the card reader can't handle the 2.0GB card? I can't figure it out.

Thanks in advance.

I have a Moultrie 4.0 mp, SanDisk SD cards, & a Lexar card reader.

Wildview Video Capabilities?

NY911Bowhunter — Wed, 29 Aug 2007 13:49:00 GMT

How are the videos of these little gems?
