I've had the pleasure to play with a couple of cameras to use for a security project. This one is the Bushnell Trail Sentry. This unit takes 4 D batteries and comes with no memory. You need a SD chip to store media on.
   After going through the setup to set the time and date, I went into video mode which records AVI's. After recording a couple of clips I noticed the dates in the files directory were wrong. After turning it off and on again, and taking more shots, the time stamps were correct. In the picture, the time stamps are in the lower right, and look very sharp!
   This camera seems to have a very sensitive imaging chip. Taking pictures in the room, even with a wall 15 feet away, with flash, leaves the pictures almost all white. In movie mode, the flash doesn't activate, of course. If it's bright, however, it takes movies at a higher frame rate (14fps)! It slows down when it's dark, but it doesn't seem to change exposure levels once it's started taking movies. If it was dark when the movie started, it records at about 1.4fps. If it gets light whithin the 'take', the frames just comes out all white. The opposite is true if it starts light at 14fps and gets a bit dark. The rest is black. This should be no issue in real-life outside imaging where is gets dark and light slowly anyway. Note: Clips are about 15 seconds long.
   This is one fast trigger PIR! Max delay is about a second. It seems after the first picture, the trigger is even quicker! This should be great at capturing running animals! Sharpness is about normal. The PIR is considerably narrower than the field-of-view.

Here is a picture the camera shot this morning. It's very windy. Probably tree movement triggered the shot.

   I just uploaded two AVI's that I captured today. It's bright, so they are over 3 megs each because they are at 14fps.
This one shows the tail-end of a bicyclist that sped by. It starts recording well within a second from the subjects passage.
This one of another car. There was this white butterfly that was flying around that I note didn't trigger the capture, but he was caught within the 15 second clip. The blowing weeds didn't trigger a 'take' either.

I have more of these, one was two motorcycles that passed. The bike first-in-line was completely missed, but the second was completely captured. I'm using Earthlink Satellite that is quite slow on upload. I think I was an hour uploading these two! I'll try a couple more when it gets darker.

OK. Here's one of me leaving the yard on the bike. It's recording 1.4fps so this movie is only 320k or so. It's not very dark, but the brake lights sure look bright!
Here's when I came back. 60k this time! It was pretty dark here. Note the 'hot' pixels, 3 in a row at the top. CCD problem.

   I think I discovered some Firmware Bugs: Everytime the camera is powered on, despite appearing like it's in the movie mode with the icons, it's really in the picture mode. I have to go through the menu and reselect the movie mode. Also, the website and manual both seem to call this flash incandescent. I assure you it looks like xenon to me. The energy is intense and it even clicks (softly) with the discharge. Also it appears if it is triggerd in the Very dark, the sample rate goes back up to 14fps and the frames are black.
