yesterday. Asked about their return policy and was told if if didn't do exactly what it was suspposed to, or the pix were mest up (white outs) bring it back for a full refund.
Have tested the camera around the house. Takes great day time color photos and videos (15 sec). Wake up time is a second or less.
Now, the IFR night time pix are something else. If you are within 10 feet of the camera and directly infront of the lense you will be washed out. You will look like a white silouette. It just seems to have a circle dead in front of the lense that the IR Flash is too stong for. But 45 -50 feet behind and off to the side of dead center are beautiful B&W pictures. I had on black shorts and a dark red t-shirt last night and it washed them out within 10 feet. Went in side and got a deer mount and sat it in a chair about 8-10 feet in front of the cameral. BAD...........but the out line is crisp and you can see the horns clearly if you like bright white horns. pic attached.
Taken about 8 feet in front of camera
Taken about 8-10 directly in front of the camera
Taken about 18-20 directly in front of the camera
This little camera is a "sport". It is so simple to use. It takes pictures fast and wakes up fast. About the size of 2 ciagrette packs laying side by side. Holds either 4 or 8 AA batteries. I've got a 4 gig card in it right now. High res color phots are 1.6 mb and nite time B&W pics average just under a meg.
If I get this white out problem resolved I'm gonna be tickled to death with the camera. Especially for $149.97. More if I get the problem resolved.
