So what is a trail camera? A trail camera is a camera that is designed to operate unattended outdoors and to automatically capture pictures or video of anything that triggers the built-in motion detector. They are mainly used to monitor wildlife activity but could be used for security purposes also.
This new top of the range camera from Campark , they have about 25 trail cameras available, arrived packed in an attractive mid-market product box inside of which was the camera itself, two tree mount straps, data cable, and a User Guide. Although the camera itself is made of plastic and is rather lightweight (which is perhaps no drawback) build quality seems excellent. The User Guide is a good size, well printed, and easy to read.
The IP66 water-resistant camera uses two built-in rechargeable 18650 batteries with a capacity of 4400mAh. Take note that if used intensively the batteries will run down in just a few days but in normal use should last well with Campark claiming a standby life of up to 12 months. The batteries can be charged using the grommet protected USB-C port on the base of the camera (the internal USB-C port is for data only and will not charge the batteries). The camera also has a large solar panel on the top and this will help to keep the battery topped up. From being fully depleted the camera will automatically detect and begin working from solar charging when it has returned to a usable battery level.
On the front of the device are the two lenses (one for night and the other for day), a light sensor, front and side motion sensors, 850nm night vision infrared LED panel. On the side are clips to secure the front flap which opens out to give access to the colour LCD monitor and control buttons. Inside the door flap is the full-size SD card slot (Class 10 U3 or better), with the USB-C data port for computer connection port and camera reset pinhole. Inside the door flap below the 2.4" 320 x 240 colour LCD screen are an array of buttons for track navigation, menu, mode selection, camera selection, wifi on/off, replay, shot taking and OK. The buttons are a good size and reasonably easy to find and use outside at night. Below them is a turret switch to set the device to OFF/SETUP/On. On the camera base is the metal screw hole for a tripod and the USB-C battery charging port.
The camera is triggered by the front and side facing motion detection sensors (total angle of view 120°) has three sensitivity levels available and at 0.1 seconds the trigger delay is the fastest I have yet tried.
