Looks like a runway preview of what's around! Of course we all know what happens after Labor Day and when we're sitting in the stand! There's a 5sec recovery between vids, so movement you see at end of 1st vid is same buck standing at top of creek crossing at beginning of 2nd vid.

The brightness is an issue I'm working on and have contacted Bushnell. Only happens at sunrise(+60min) and sunset (-60min), when sunlight is filtering through the woods at the low angle. Assuming IR sensor thinks it needs to flash. Can control # of LEDs flashing, but will definately not be benificial for true nighttime photos/vids. Cam is pointed NW with morning sun coming in from behind the cam.

 

The location is at a creek crossing previous owner had logging equipment forge there. I cleaned it up some and use if for ATV Xing. You know how those manmade paths work, make a path and deer basically being lazy will eventually use it.

 

Deerpassion - I was afraid not everyone could view these. If you're hanging on to Windows Vista, you don't have the video driver to view these. As I found out. They are taken in a DivX file format. There are freeware drivers available to view. Each file is too big for me to upload from my PC. Sorry!

 

I wish I was artistic enough to do those turkey box calls. Guy in Flordia (Tim Swift) sells them on eBay. Even more gorgeous in your hand.

I have had that problem with my two Bushnell cameras. It seems to happen right at transition times in the AM and PM. I have always figured it was a confusion factor in the camera trying to decide whether lighting conditions require switching to IR or not, so it kind of does both at once. If Bushnell ever gets back to you on this, would you share their explanation with us? There are a lot of us that own that brand of camera and I'll bet more than a few that have experienced this problem.

One fix, more a "work-around" for the dawn/dusk issue is to set the LED Control to less/low setting. I'm going to try that, but assuming it will give you underexposed true nighttime photos/vids. Gotta believe it's within the cam's ambient lighting detection circuitry. Will share any helpful info when I receive it.

 

From owner's manual:

LED Control (Multi-Flash feature) Low, Medium, High

 

Controls how many LED lamps fire when images are taken in low light.

“High”=all 32 LEDs fire, which is the default setting.

Set to Medium or Low if you are getting overexposed flash photos or will place the camera at very close range to the subject you want to photograph.

In general, select High if most of your intended subjects will be over 30 ft. from the camera,

Medium for the 15 to 30 ft.range, and Low for subjects under 15 ft. away.

 

Note: in video mode, 24 LEDs fire in both High & Medium (default) settings.

Set to Low if videos are overexposed.

And he just keeps getting bigger. Like I mentioned there is nothing around to promote a rack like that!! The 1st two are typical, decent bucks for my area, he's just extraordinary.
