    These are based on:
    2-Cuddeback Attack IR's
    1-Four yr old cuddeback IR
    1-Primos Truth Cam 35 IR

    1)Mainly Photo

    2)~10 min delay between shots if I'll be gone a month or more
    ~5 min if I'll be back in 2 weeks or less
    ~1 min if I'm at the lease for a few days, or if I'm using my Primos Truth 35 since I don't like the other options on it.

    3)1 photo burst

    4) sensitivity medium or low if I'm getting pics of grass swaying etc.

        You mean to tell me there is something related to hunting that you don't know?!?!

        Good question actually. For me:
        1) Photos only
        2) 5 min delay
        3) 2 photo because I want to make sure there isn't another animal coming in with the first.
        4) Medium so that the trees don't set off the trigger.

                  For the photos only guys....was wondering...do you not have an interest in the video feature? I shoot mainly videos. I just like seeing the animal for 30 seconds. ITs kinda cool. Course I check mine every few days. Thanks for all the input. I think I will try some photos and adjust the delay somewhat. Ive noticed I get some tree movement photos sometimes and of course birds.

                      I don't have enough room on my card to take videos. They just use up an enormous amount of storage space.



                      ...and yes I'm pleased

                          1) Photo only
                          2) 3 shot burst
                          3) 30 Sec
                          4) normal (medium)

                          Use six Promos 35. 4 to 8 GB cards. Usually spanning 2 months between card cycling. Want to get all the pics I can. Don't care if I have to wade through the bird, tree, phantom trigger pics.
