I will start by saying for the most part I love my Bushnell cam - great images, unreal battery life, and a quick trigger.
I have had the camera out since May in various places and have pulled the card probably 10+ times. On my last card pull the camera simply wouldn't react to anything I was doing once I got to the cam and it didn't take any pics....I know there was activity because the deer had demolished 200lbs of shelled corn and the snow was packed down like concrete.
I put another card in and put it on a tree, messed around in front of the cam and it took 6 pics. I put the card back in that I had trouble with and it took pics as well so I don't believe it was the card.
2nd time it has done this, it is almost like it didn't register that the came was even on because the batter is still on 2/3rds of full life. Once it was during Mid to late Sept, and the latest time it was between Dec 25th to Jan. 15th....
Anyone else had this issue? I think I have ruled out the card since it took pics right away again, and it also did it in the warm and cold weather. My only preliminary thought was that a few of the batteries might not have been 100% pushed back against the back of batter compartment.
Sucks, it seems like a great camera but has let me down twice now when left out on some hot spots.......only plus is I found a shed right on the grain pile site.
Thanks!
