Great trail camera for the price
This is a long review with pictures, I try to break down the review into sections to make it easierPackaging, shipping time, accessories and instruction manual - It comes with the standard accessories most cameras come with. The manual is better than most but the English could throw you off if you don’t pay close attention to the intent of the instructionsMemory Card - First thing I liked was the larger memory card. As you can see when I reviewed a different camera with a micro SD, the micro card fell inside the camera. I had to take it apart to retrieve it. Also the micro card can be dropped easily. The CAMPAK uses the larger SD card and has a USB connection port that is very convenient.Menu - The menu is great! The resolution and font size is GREAT! Anyone can easily see all settings and playback. There are more than enough features. From timers to resolution this camera allows customizing others don’t.Concealment – The camo color is perfect. It blends in better than others I have reviewed. The password feature is simple 4 number sequence. This will prevent anyone from using it if they decide to steal it. Another feature that we all agree is important.. Does it give off a flash? No it doesn’t. There is a dull IF (Infra-red) light that you have to search for to notice.Quality – The video and picture quality is excellent. You can actually review the pics and video on the camera. Most game cameras have terrible resolution on the unit. This one is just right.Performance - The IR reaches out an easy 30 yards during tests and the Video/Pics were clear at night and during the day. No wash out during the day (as long as you don’t point into the sun) same for any camera. Good clear time and date stamp.Storage – The memory card capacity is limited to 32B card. This is more than sufficient but if you like video and high resolution you may have to change the card every week.Conclusion:Wow.. Finally an inexpensive camera that actually has quality, A lot of features and is easy to use. Because of time limitations I wasn’t able to report on battery usage. But I would be willing to bet it is comparable to other cameras. So here it is. Now, for this price, you can afford to buy several instead of having a single camera to scout with. More than one camera will allow you to find the best area for success by investing less time moving the camera.

Camera Met My Needs
Your browser does not support HTML5 video. I was looking for something that would help me capture what critter(s) were trying to 'modify' my squirrel feeder at night. And also to capture other wild life that might be strolling through the yard. I was very pleased with the unit and feel for the price point it is a good bargain that's the basis for my rating.

Fantastic Camera
Folks , this camera is better than my 4 other brand name camera's,easily !It's simpler to use and program.It is clearer and has better sound . And it does night video as good as daylight ! I have been using trail cams for years,this one is cheaper and better,then Wild game,Moultrie,and Stealth,and Bushnell .It's detection sensor is Remarkable to say the least,It actually picks up a cat at over 40 feet at night! I have never seen another camera even come close to this,never!And it was a black cat to boot.For the price ,this is my new Brand.It truly is a step ahead of everyone else,other camera's claim new for 2019,and the picture quality is still 2015.This one is an eye opener,I have not received a penny, or free camera for this review. Be nice though! Winks! I actually had a deer squinting,literally,at this camera,like did I see something,but kept on eating,never seen a deer squinting.It really is a steal,at this price.I am buying more of them,you can't lose on this one folks,hands down,a Fantastic camera,fantastic detection sensor.It really is a great night time camera,and the sound is great too! The new 940 Ir works better than 850 Ir ,this might just catch Bigfoot ,animals could see 850 Ir this one has them squinting to see if they see something or not,none of the other animals seemed to notice it at all. You will be amazed at the detection range of this camera, I was ,I'm not one to Rant and Rave on stuff but this is a really,really,really good camera,especially at this price ! It Rocks at night video with sound to boot.No other camera can even come close to this one ,this will be a best seller,mark my words !!!!!!!And then the price will keep going up,that's how it always works,Professional or amateur,you will love this camera,except for the sd card removal,it's a pain in the you know what to get out . other than that, Amazing New Technology,Amazing!

Decent quality imagery for a reasonable price (blackout edition!)
Your browser does not support HTML5 video. Initial ImpressionsNice looking, well camouflaged trail camera. Black out edition will be nice to keep people from noticing it. Well packaged and exactly as described on Amazon.ca. Does not come with an SD card or batteries.Pros• Image quality is really quite good.• Near infrared LEDs are really bright! (see our review video) We had it set to a mid level brightness, and it was plenty bright for what we were doing. Max brightness may only be required for longer distances under really dark conditions (no snow etc)• Camouflaging works well in many conditions, but I might make some sort of cover for areas that aren't similar to the trail cam.• Long battery life - we left the camera out in sub zero temps for 5 days and the battery level only dropped to 75%. And, we were only using 4 of 8 possible batteries (AA)• Easy to install - we just strap it to a tree and shim it to angle down with sticks to the area we think the animals will be.• Stock settings seem fine, but check out our review video to see what settings we used. The menus are really intuitive and easy to use as well.• Re-trigger time is only half a second. This means that between images or video, there will be very little action missed. In our video, the two clips of the coyote at night are sequential. You can see how little time elapses between videos there.Cons• Uses a regular sized SD card. This probably isn't a bad thing, but we find that most of our electronic recording devices use a micro SD card these days.• Battery cover door is difficult to open. You will get used to it, but the first few times were difficult for us.• Doesn't come with a screw-in type mounting adapter. It does come with a screw in type mounting plate (which may be better?), but we have come to like the single screw in bolt-type mounting adapter.Would have been nice to see...It's always nice to get "extras" and having an included SD card would have been nice. We would also like to have seen a GPS component or Bluetooth capability, but these would both raise the cost of the camera significantly. It would have also have been nice to have a wider sensor range (many trail cams have two sensors which means that the camera is activated even before the subject enters the camera's field of view)ConclusionWe have several of these cameras now. The T70 is the first one that is a "black out" type camera and we really like it! We will also probably be using this as a portable security camera as people can't see it operating. The image quality is really quite good from this camera, and certainly better than trail cameras from previous years. If you are looking for a reasonably priced trail camera that will catch all the action for you, the T70 is a really good option.

Impressed by it’s night vision capability, it is absolutely amazing!
I bought this to place in my backyard and catch racoons and have a camera outside. I am thoroughly impressed by it’s night vision capabilities. It takes super clear photos all the time! It has a menu to choose the photo or video modes and has excellent infrared capabilities.Pros:Amazing night vision capability- Took a picture pitch black and it turned out super clear- Great for security- Sturdy construction and high quality feel- Waterproof casing- Cheap solution for stealthy outside security camera- Blends in with bushes and trees with the camouflage.Cons:- A bit bulky, but the bulkiness also makes it more durableTips: You need 8 AA batteries

Finally a trail cam that takes good video at night with sound - Updated DO NOT DROP
Your browser does not support HTML5 video. I use my cameras for watching feeding stations at night and prefer video over stills. I have found most trail cams have two major issues at night. Over exposure or spot light effect of the IR flash or lousy sound at night with beeps, crack or loud hums as the IR's heat up. That said I am happy to say that this camera does NOT have either of those issues. The video in day or night is excellent, no white over exposure and the complete field of view is visible. Also the sound is stunning. No non nature or electronic sounds are detected. You can hear the animals eating. Its wonderful. So far the battery performance has been acceptable. The only improvement I would suggest is a faster trigger speed and a stronger latch. Sometimes it misses animals that are passing through the field of view or just catches the end of them. But for my purposes at a feeding station that is not an issue. This is my 5th trail cam and my first Campark and my first black IR camera. I am very happy with it. Note the photos are screen captures from video shot with the camera.Update: I have four of these. DO NOT DROP. Two have dropped from about waist level onto the ground and both had the same failure. The plastic part on the fixed side of the the latch mechanism cracked at the case on both drops so two cameras now do not firmly seal anymore. Do not drop these cameras even from a few feet when taking them off a tree.

detection angle
This camera is very easy to use. I have 10 hunting cameras, and it is among my 3 to 4 best. It is waterproof to precipitation, the image is good. However, the detection angle is lower than advertised: around 40 degrees instead of 50. The same goes for the lens: the angle is around 42 degrees instead of 49 degrees. The trigger time is quite long: about 2.5 sec. for a photo, and 5.5 sec for an outdoor video at temperatures of around -5 degrees Celsius. In hybrid Photo + video mode, there is 3 seconds between the two. It is best to install this camera near a bait or saline, and not along a path or trail frequented by big game. Since the photo mode is faster, if you install this camera along a path, it is best to set the camera to hybrid mode.The images and sound are very good.

Awesome Trail Camera
I tested this camera for over a week with different scenario'stried different 1080 video setting with 14m picture settings left in my front room overnight.because of the high traffic it took 10 gb of videos\picture in less than 20 hours and the battery usage was small considering the amount of use it went thru.tried many different scenario's over the week and found the video and picture quality to be very impressive along with the battery life.I cant wait till spring so I can set it up and start record wildlifewill definitely buy this camera again
