Hey Guest, Early bird pricing on the Summer Moot (29th July - 10th August) available until April 6th, we'd love you to come. PLEASE CLICK HERE to early bird price and get more information.
I currently run 50 Reconyx RC55 cameras here in Panama, they are excellent. Instant and continous capturing, we bought them because they capture immediately where as for most others you have to bait it as the cameras very slow. I.R. too and one of the few that can (just about) cope with heavy rain.
Thats a very pricey camera and the problem with that is where i'm placeing the camera there is a good chance of theft. May be the answer is to bait them then. Do you use any other camera's, or used others in the past.
Heres some footage from the camera: http://www.youtube.com/user/bcicameratraps
I have used others, and so have many others here, but this is the only one that stands up to the elements and producers images of animals without 1.Baiting and 2.Them knowing (no flash)
If i place cameras on trails (we get the odd tourist here) I use a cablelock.

I think looking at some of the footage on you tube, has made my mind up. If i don't have anything on my camera its going in the bin and I'll be investing in a new one as soon as i can afford one. I know i've put the camera in the right place as i saw six fallow deer come down the trail as i was setting the camera up, and it's covering a hole in a fence, which is one of only entry two points into there resting area.So it's not me honest......
