Very cool test setup Dave! I like that you compared "like" cameras! I was surprised at the trigger speed of the Tactacam...almost too fast. But maybe a good speed for video mode. Very clever with the cones to measure day and night camera activation. I really like your look at battery life. There are so many variables when it comes to battery life...but you took most of them out. Cool! Great video Dave!!

@radioace318la Жыл бұрын

the cameras are basically radio modems operating on 27 megahertz. when you place the radios in such close proximity it will cause problems with one camera transmitting and another receiving simultaneously. One's transmitter will overload the other receiving capabilities. You have to spread them out from each other at least a few feet or more.

@marksdronechannel6309 2 ай бұрын

Didn't realize that cellular trailcams worked on 27 megahertz. I thought that they worked around 600MHz or 800MHz or or other higher frequencies. Maybe you are not much of a radio ace at all and perhaps should stay quiet.

Best cell cam review video I've seen. Thank you! I have used 2 Spypoint link micro V cell cams since 9-12-22. 1 camera has worked flawlessly. The other has worked periodically. After about 5 weeks of emails back & forth with customer service, they sent me a free replacement. I set it up in the same open spot & within 20 minutes, the camera sent me 100 photos (maxing out the plan for the month). No branches were tripping it & it wasn't windy. I can almost guarantee they do it on purpose in an attempt to get you to purchase a plan. Even with the troubles I've had, I will continue to use them this year. Battery life has been awesome.

I have 5 Spypoints that were installed around August 2022 - they have ALL operated flawlessly and I agree with all the points you made with regards to triggering on stuff really far away and also with having the multiple images taken too quickly together, sometimes before the animal has even moved. Battery life when transmitting just once or twice a day is crazy good, I am still on the first set of batteries (cameras all reading consistently about 60% life left after 6 months).

Hi Dave, for us elk hunters, it's video where it's important. Might I suggest a second round of of the 30,60.90 ft tests, but strictly for video this time? Most manufacturers say their video triggers are slower, and this would be a good way to find out. Also, I have first gen reveal, and received a Moultrie second gen Delta for Chrismas. While the reveal has an adjustable video length, it was a major disappointment to find out the Delta will only record 15 second videos. If an elk is in a Wallow, you want max length on the videos. If you could detail the video length capabilities of each camera, that would be most useful. Thank you.

@tedwawrzyniak9409 Жыл бұрын

Great video! One thing I have found with the Tactacam cameras when compared to others is that if you run several cams, the plans are more economical because of how they count number of images. The number is cumulative for all your cameras. Others seem to count by each camera and you can end up with a lot of unused photos in your plan each month.

Spypoint are by far the worst in my opinion, slow to respond, there is a glitch with their unlimited photos that “expires” and support was by far the worst. They offered to replace the camera with one half its value which still did not resolve the unlimited photo glitch. Being out of excuses we are constantly disconnected forcing us to wait over an hour each time to get through. Will NEVER buy from them again. Bushnell has been fantastic, and looking forward to trying one of the Tacticam.

Disappointing that the Moultrie edge was a lemon. I have four of them and they all work great. I enjoy the SD cardless feature. For someone like me hunts public land They are a great option. The only knock I have on them is trigger speed. I wish it was a hair faster. Two of them have been out for almost 2 months and are still above 90% in battery life. I have switched back and forth between video and photo on them many times. They take photos nightly. I have very few daytime photos simply because our deer are so nocturnal, but the ones I have are pretty dang good. Even the night photos are very clear depending on the humidity level. I am happy especially for 80 bucks apiece.

Thank you for this! For years all I used was Moultrie, and my camera died. I purchased another moultrie that lasted 5 days and drained 24 batteries, a moultrie solar panel, and only took 6 solid black photos, swapped it under warranty with another that made it just under a yr and died. Swapped it out again under warranty with the next level up version at the time and it lasted almost to the end of the 2yr warranty and died so I just returned it and got my money back. I purchased a Tactacam last yr and so far I still like it. I do miss the widescreen from the moultrie though because I get a lot of empty pics when deer are at the edge of the screen like the sensor range is wider than the camera lens.

Dave, I really appreciate the thoroughness and detail you put into your testing. I also like how you've made it as apples-to-apples by placing the cameras in the same environment and ran the tests at the same time. One thing I would like to see is waterproof testing. I live in the Pacific NW where we get 80"+ of rain per year. I've had water problems with many of my cameras including multiple models of the Spypoint cameras. When I spoke to Spypoint I was told their cameras are "water resistant", which is a lame way of saying they are not waterproof. Nearly every camera that I've had that failed is full of water when I open it up. I would love to know if any of these, or the other cellular cameras you've tested, can stand up to a simulated rain test. Thanks again for all the hard work.

@@HuntingFarmerOfficial I bought these cameras strictly for non invasively patterning deer on scrapes and travel corridors. For that they work great and I like how it takes a photo and a video at the same time without charging me for the video (until I download it). I get all the pictures showing when the deer are moving, then when I see a nice buck, I download the video footage. If my goal was to collect as much video footage as possible, these cameras would not be near as good as ones that you can swap the cards out in. So they are working well for my needs but they definitely aren't as versatile as some of the other cameras you tested. Still not a bad choice for $75 in my opinion...

this is one of the first comments I've ever made on youtube. this is a fantastic video! thank you for taking the time to do this. I will be basing my cameras purchases for this next season on this video. I bought 4 Moultrie Edge cameras this last preseason and I can't say enough about how poorly they performed. eating up batteries while not taking pics or connecting at all. they wasted much of my time and energy this past season and it's time that I won't get back. I've been a long time moultrie patron and will likely get rid of all my moultrie mobile cams due to the horrible performance of the cameras and customer service. between 2 of my friends and myself, we had 8 edge cameras that all had the same issues. we didn't realize how bad it was until we placed moultrie 7000 cameras side by side with several edge cameras and realized we simply weren't getting pics and they weren't working. I'm currently waiting to have one last conversation with moultrie about this and I will update this comment regarding the results.

Great video, I've been running six moultrie edge camera this year. Replaced my old moultrie camera and modem system, got to say I've had very little problem with them. I had one them early on would turn on connect take a couple pictures and need a battery change. I was not using using the recommended energizers batteries. I decided to use energizers in this camera and it is still running strong at 70% since the battery change in mid October its now January 10 and has taken hundreds of pictures. Thanks great review.

Great job on the video. I'd suggest a longevity study as well, seems like this would give an idea of which is the best value or who's warranty would get the most work outs.

Great video and excellent comparisons. Great info for all to see. I love my Tactacam Reveals, I currently run about 12 of them. Great to see where they stand in comparison! The 4x3 aspect ratio on the app is because of it is in thumbnail format. The actual images on the card are full sized.

That was the best trail cam test I’ve seen on KZfaq. Very detailed. I personally have 4 SPYPOINT flex and 2 micros up at my hunting camp in Maine . The service is spotty for sure . The micro’s wouldn’t send pictures for hours even on instant. But the flex cameras work really well. I’ve had no problems with the cameras and the lithium batteries lasted from august till June on 3 burst picture mode . I’m going to get a few more with the solar 0:02 panel option . I’ll check back with a report later in the fall . Again great job on the video new subscriber here 👍

Thought you did a great job on the review. I have been using Moultrie cams for a long time. I have some old ones that are still working and I have some newer ones that are nothing but a problem. I am ready for a change. So am looking to change manufacturers on a couple of cell phone cams. Your video has helped guide me on my next purchase. Many thanks.

Great review Dave, I’ve been using several Moultrie edge and my hunting buddy realized it was missing deer! So disappointing! Battery life is great but missing deer is very bad! I’ve had some bad luck with SPYPOINT so it’s hard for me to buy them, there life and reliability hasn’t been great but I’m considering trying it and the tactacam. Thank for your great work on this review!

Hello, Dave Shane here from (Maine North Woods Hunter) This was an excellent video I certainly appreciate all your hard work on this subject. One complaint is I would like to have seen how each of the camera's Phone sites looked like and how well they worked. I do have the Moultrie Edge and have had a lot of problems with its range and photo-taking capabilities. I ended up not hunting at camp at all last year because I was not getting any pictures from the camera. I assumed no photos no deer. When I finally went to check on the camera there were deer and Moose tracks in the plot. The camera just hadn't taken any photos and I have the camera connected to a fully charged solar panel that says the camera was at 100%. The one thing I like about the camera is it has a setting to take a daily TEST photo every day. That feature is very useful and I wish more cameras had that. Other than that I think it is time to trade the camera in for something that does what it is supposed to do. With my problems and yours, I am not sure you getting another is going to make much of a difference. I drove my ATV head-on towards the camera to see when it would actually activate the other day and it never went off. The camera seems very slow at waking up if it does at all. Looks like I may have to try the Spypoint Flex. Thanks again for the great video.

Well that was a great video showing so many features and comparison of each. Well done on your review, Dave. I want to get a trail camera one of these days but I do not need a cellular option. Where we go in the woods there is no service. A wireless link would be good for instance if you were in the tent and wanted to link up to the camera for an outside view. that is the type of trail cam I would be super interested in. It seems you did a review on one like that last year. Very informative video. Take care and have a great day.

Great job! Well done and very informative. TactaCam only sends ONE Pic, I had 2 of those cameras. I had mine set to take/send 2 pics, it ONLY sent 1. When I called customer service they said it is taking 2 pics but only sends ONE to "save battery life", you can see "both pics" when you pull the SD card from the camera. Needless to say I sent them back and bought SpyPoint.
