one thing to keep in mind when comparing. if you are testing the cams beside each other, the night images/vids will not be accurate, as each is then affected by the other's flash. i have a spypoint that is completely useless for night quality. complete garbage. i did a test in the off-season with my cams in the backyard. suddenly, the spypoint had phenomenal night videos. some of the best i've ever seen. it just didn't make sense. i was thinking that somehow it had fixed itself or something. then i realized why. it was sitting with other cams, and their flash was illuminating the area for it.

[@mountainbuck]

Hey breathe and squeeze! Excellent point! I sometimes have a blink camera setup and I can always see the IR flashes from trail cams. I definitely take this into consideration. Thanks for the heads up and best of luck this season 👍🏻

[@prepperpov5852]

Thanks for this! I put my trail camera up for the first time in years just yesterday. Walked through chest-high vegetation for probably 20 minutes to get to the spot I wanted to set it up at and ended up finding out that one single AA battery fell out of my bag on the way to the spot. Had to go all the way back to the vehicle to get a replacement battery and then went back to the trail cam spot but I actually found the lost battery on the way there somehow. Good times lol! Thank god for permethrin. I’d probably have a hundred ticks on me if it wasn’t for that stuff.

[@mountainbuck]

Hey Prepper POV! Ugh that’s brutal! I hate it when I forget something or lose something like that and have to hike all the way back. It sounds like you are getting pretty deep in the woods! I also really hate ticks! They are the worst!

[@footeze226]

How do you set the syndosmos dh-2 to record 1 to 10 minutes I can only find up to 1 minute

[@beansrgd]

Ty for your videos! To the point, slapstick and final review. Please help me with the precise settings for my Vikeri. I bought it for a family member who’s yard is vulnerable to local thieves and such. She said she caught someone but it was too low. She’s elderly and ready to report these a- holes. Medium res for video ? Medium res for Photos? And lastly what time setting. 30 seconds then what ? Ty so much, I’m a new Sub! It’s hard for me to explain because we can only talk on the landline 📞 - seriously do

[@mountainbuck]

Heys beansrgd! Thanks so much for subscribing! I really appreciate it! Did she mean too low on the tree or that the image quality was too low? If you are using this for thieves, I would probably set the photo resolution to its highest and extend the video length a bit. When I have this setup for watching deer, I’ll do shorter clips as they move in and out, but for catching people, I would think you’d want as much info as possible to see what they are up to (you’d also want as clear an image as possible in order to identify the suspects). Maybe try recording for 1-2 minutes at a time and see if that helps. Best of luck! I hope you get good footage! 👍🏻

[@thatarmyveteranguy2490]

That whipe-out was worth the watch...lol..

[@mountainbuck]

Haha thanks man 🤣

[@ninjazxd]

The vikeri I bought Sunday and used on Monday and checked today on Tuesday and the buttons are all jacked up. Just because the cheap buttons are labeled doesn't mean that it won't do functions of the other buttons. My down and up buttons will also function as the menu button and ok button. Junk. Sending it back.

[@mountainbuck]

Hey ninjazxd! Thanks for watching! Sorry you’re having trouble with your Vikeri! Mine is still working out pretty good.

[@SpaceCoast_]

Yup, my buttons deteriorate after the first use. At first, Certain buttons triggered other buttons (down arrow means "ok" now). It completely unusable after 4 days of use. Luckily I'm within 30 day return window.

[@patrothwell9138]

Nice fall..lol I have a Grade pro I like mine

[@mountainbuck]

Bahaha I wish I had a little more of that fall on camera 🤣. Thanks for checking in, Pat!

[@joenicmck]

Have you actually observed these in the dark taking pictures. So many cameras say they are no/or black flash. But when you actually check them they are quite bright taking the pics. the deer where i hunt are super sensitive to flash. THX

[@mountainbuck]

Hey joenicmck! Yes, in my newer trail cam videos I show what the infrared looks like at night when taking photos and videos. I’m actually working on a video now that includes these two cameras and will be showing the nighttime red lights. Both of these cameras do emit a subtle red flash at night. Thanks for watching 👍🏻

[@blakespower]

all these cameras are made at the same factory in China, they just change the exterior a bit so different companies can sell it as their "EXCLUSIVE" Trail Camera

[@mountainbuck]

Hey BlakesPower! That’s interesting. I definitely see some similarity in some of the designs. Thanks for watching 👍🏻

[@Tropazio]

My vikeri does not work at night. Any suggestions on camera settings? 3:19

[@mountainbuck]

Hey thanks for watching! Check the infrared or IR settings to make sure they are active. Try increasing them if that is an option.

[@chompers11]

Is the garde pro noglo? The vikeri is stealth in that aspect right?

[@mountainbuck]

Hey Ri m, thanks for checking out my channel! The GardePro is listed as a No Glow and the Vikeri has that 120 degree angle lens. Best of luck this season!

[@chompers11]

@@mountainbuck which would you rec for setting up on the boundary of your property to catch any animals that pass by but also people? I'd prefer if the people didnt notice haha

[@mountainbuck]

@@chompers11 hmmm… good question. If you are going for concealment, maybe a smaller camera like the Moultrie Micro 42 kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHO4mqmJh72Iaqs I’m a really big fan of cellular trail cams like the Tactacam Reveal XB (you get the pics and videos right to your phone and don’t have to pull the SD cards) kzbin.info/www/bejne/g3XbcoN-l614gac If you don’t want to pay the $5 a month subscription, the Spypoint Flex is a nice cell camera that gives you 100 free photos a month kzbin.info/www/bejne/r4KppnStntRjaa8 Let me know how you make out 👍🏻

[@xONEWINGx]

Can you tell me the max video length of these two cameras? I probably go with the gardpro based on the full size SD, the use of micros in large devices like this shits me to tears.

[@mountainbuck]

Haha I hear you. I’ll have to double check later, but I usually set these to record 60 seconds. I believe the vikeri might be able to do 2-3 minutes.

[@keithcushing8162]

Is guardpro no flash because the other one is

[@mountainbuck]

Hey Keith! Neither of these are no-glow and put out some red infrared lights for night shots. Thanks for watching 👍🏻

[@carlob1725]

This is weird! Have been feeding a cat in my barn for over six month. It shows up every night. my wife wanted to see the cat eating, so I set up the Model 4K in the barn. That night the cat did not show up!!! TO the point, every time I put the camera in the barn the cat DOES NOT SHOW UP !!!! No camera, the cat eats the food! What is going on, does the camera put out some frequency that keeps cats or animals away? Can we use the camera to keep varmits away?

[@mountainbuck]

I would think the cat would come in no problem. If you saw it on camera running from the infrared flash, then you would know it’s the camera spooking it. Have you tried putting it on photo + video mode? I do this for all of my trail cams when possible to see more of what’s going on.

[@idahobigfootyoutubechannel]

Interesting. It may be that the cat shows up, but is unable to trigger the camera into recording. Just a thought 👍

[@bobbygreen2291]

What about audio ,,which one has the best or the loudest audio

[@mountainbuck]

Hey Bobby! Honestly the audio didn’t work for me on the Vikeri. I’m not having audio trouble on the new 4K vikeri I just tested however. It may have just been that one camera. Thanks for watching 👍🏻

[@bobbygreen2291]

@@mountainbuck I keep 26 or so cameras going all year long , it’s a hobby , not for hunting, when I get a cam that does not have loud audio I send it back , I have found that I actually learn as much or more from audio, I feed deer 365 days a year , I also learned the Austrian winter peas is by far the best thing to plant.

[@mountainbuck]

@@bobbygreen2291 thanks for the heads up on the winter peas! I’m into food plots and am always looking for good deer forage. 26 cams is a lot! You must have a nice sized property. Have you tried any solar panels or solar cameras so you don’t have to spend a ton on batteries?

[@bobbygreen2291]

@@mountainbuck no I haven’t used anything but regular cameras because I am retired and this is a hobby to me and I make rounds every morning and switch the SD cards , walk back to the house and stick em in a iPad Pro ,, the cameras where I feed at average four to six hundred videos per day and yes I go through a lot of batteries but don’t care ,,I will not ever buy a cell cam or Wi-Fi cam , I like having to foot them each morning. The deer are used to my scent , if anyone goes with me I don’t get many videos the next few days ,,lots of times I see them watch me put out corn n apples.

@@bobbygreen2291 Sounds like a great way to spend your mornings! When I'm off work, I really enjoy sitting on the couch, drinking my coffee and watching the deer roll in. I usually get out on Sundays to check trail cams.
