Gave this to my husband for Christmas. He set it up with ease. I bought a set of rechargeable batteries as others said they worked fine and all good so far using them. He set it up in our garden first to try it out. It was left out for a few nights and did record some action! It was easy to connect to the computer to view what had been recorded. We have yet to try video function but photos are good. So we have a cheeky blackbird hopping about as in the photo. The picture was great, very clear when taken in the daylight. The only other thing that started the sensor was our cat! The picture was blurred but only because he had gone up to the camera so closely to check it out! Then the sensor detected him move away so we got a great shot of his tail. Another time he must have jumped down from the fence as the camera detected his movement and we can spot him creeping along the lawn! Nighttime shots are not as good but to be expected as it is dark! Really enjoying this new ‘toy’ although it is a lot more than that. Looking forward to taking it to our allotment as it backs onto fields where we have seen deer and hare along with the pheasants and numerous other birds. Very happy with purchase.
