The T86 has improvements that were seen right out of the box. The first thing I noticed were the improved latches. They are more substantial and are easier to work.Inside is where the big improvements are. The control buttons are of a different type and work better. And a big bonus was the fact that instead of a micro-SD card, the camera takes an SD card (or a micro-SD card in an adapter). This was very welcome because it previously had been difficult to manipulate the micro card of the T45 and I had dropped it several times inserting or removing it from the camera, spending a lot of time searching for it on the ground outdoors. The SD card goes in and out like a charm.The battery compartment cover is designed differently and is much easier to operate. It has a small nylon string permanently attached to its latch, making it easier to open the compartment, especially if you have larger hands.The larger owner’s manual is not perfect, but is more detailed and clear, and easier to understand. I’m quite satisfied with the video and image quality, especially at the price range of these cameras. Included with this review is video taken with the camera, and the still image is a frame extracted from the video.The only problem I had with the camera was that initially I was unable to view videos taken in the camera. I formatted the memory card a second time, and it has been working fine since I did that.I get a lot of enjoyment from the camera and recommend it.

Campark knows how to personalize your purchase!If you’ve used any of the older Campark models, you’ll probably recognize very quickly that they have beefed up their product. For example, the T45 had smaller clips to keep the face of the camera shut. The shell of the camera is also more robust. I’ve never broken one of these cameras, so to see the more solid build makes this camera even more attractive and desirable.Are you concerned about good color? Look no further, as this unit delivers! In fact, show your videos on an HD television and your friends will be ultra-impressed. Not only will you see high resolution in images that are up-close, but you’ll also notice that much of everything in the view of the camera will look amazing as well . . . regardless of how far away it is. And if you’re concerned about the camera picking up noise, watch the video that I’ve put together . . . the proof is in the video! This camera delivers an amazing picture and sound.Included is a fairly long strap for wrapping the camera to a tree, or, it comes with nice mounting hardware if you’re looking to establish a static, single position for your camera work. Because the camera is WIFI, you can mount this camera above your driveway and capture all events that take place . . . and never have to touch the camera again. Depending on how close you are to the camera, you can download all images and videos from your own bedroom! And if you’re really smart, purchase the external Campark companion solar battery panel and you’ll never have to purchase another battery again. (The solar panel is so efficient; the battery won’t drop below 95% in my setting. This means that your camera will operate for many days without sunlight before it completely dies. They’re about $65 bucks each . . . buy it!The software may seem a little foreign, but once you understand how it works, it’s as easy as a snap of the fingers. The software allows you to connect to your camera and download the images remotely . . . you won’t be required to remove the SD card and upload them to your computer. Through the Hunting Camera Pro software, downloadable from the Google Play Store, you will download the images and videos directly to your phone and from there, you can transfer them to your computer if you’re putting together an edited Game Camera Film. Also through the App, you are able to reconfigure your device without taking it down and opening it up. You can make all adjustments through the software, remotely, that you can make hands-on with the device. You’ll love it!My favorite videos are those taken with the Night Camera. It is most fascinating to see wildlife completing their natural duties in the dark.I’ve had several of the Campark cameras and have never had a water leak. The waterproofing grade is IP66. Definition of IP66 = “A rating of IP66 means that the product is fully protected against dust and solid objects. Moreover, the product is protected against powerful water jets projected by a nozzle (12.5mm) from any direction. An IPX4 rated product is protected from water splashes from any angle.”

The daytime is ever better. It is so easy to use. The menu is super intuitive. I like setting it so that it takes a picture and then a video. You can also just have it take a video or just a picture.The wifi is easy to use and makes it super easy to get to your pictures without having to get the camera down or inside. I have another Campark trail cam, but this one is even better. The other one doesn't have the wifi. That means you have to get the camera in to get to them. That sucks if it is raining or snowing.The side sensors allow it to pick up movement before it's actually in front of the camera.We set it up on the dog kennel because all of toys and her bed was disappearing. Caught the neighbor's dog red pawed taking the toys and bed at night. It really helped to have photographic evidence when we confronted the neighbor.Even if you don't put this out in nature, you'll be surprised at all the stuff you'll catch right around your yard. This is a great trail cam and I would recommend it to anyone.

Unfortunately I had to return these twice ! On both cameras the motion detection stopped working after the initial set up. They worked when you are playing with them to get them ready but they never triggered an action after being permanently located where I wanted them to be, even when you just stand 4 feet away from them and wildly swing your arms around to see if it triggers a response . NO luck with both cameras, so they were retuned immediately.

WiFi and Bluetooth in this trail cam used to connect to your Smartphone. APP crashes when you try to delete a photo or video. Ad says 20mp sensor but photos are only 2MP in size (very compressed). Video is worthless, doesn't capture mush at nite. I have been trying to capture vehicles driving around my driveway. Only thing I'm seeing is 2-4 photos out of 10 pic selected and photos are fuzzy because of slow shutter speed. The headlights cause the cam to think it's daytime and the cam changes to color and no IR is used. All I can see is a bright headlight and everything else is dark. Not working for my application.

It came well packaged and with nearly everything that you need to get started,first you need 8 aa batteries and a full size good quality SD card.Then on the switch saying setup it will take you to the menu to set the camera to the settings you want, very easy to do. Remember once date and time is set if you take out the batteries you will need to reset the time and date again.I wanted to capture the squirrel eating out of the peanut box and in the pouring rain you can see the quality of the video I got only thing I did wrong was to set the length of video to 10 seconds instead of 30.So ease of use, quality of video ,and how well made the camera feels in my opinion it’s one to buy.

Great wildlife camera to capture activities around the house. It’s good to capture all wildlife around and also ideal for small projects. As it captures all movements it’s ideal to use it as short time extra security camera. It’s well camouflaged can be placed anywhere outside as it is weatherproof, so it can be placed directly outside no need to be under shelter.It has three motion detection sensors which are positioned on the sides and in the front, which makes it extra white monitoring area.It works with minimum 4AA batteries and can take 8 maximum AA batteries. Batteries are not supplied in the box I had to put my own rechargeable batteries.Resolution and the size of the image and videos can be changed in the menu section. Access to the menu very simple by using internal build in screen.Overall great quality product without spending too much. Have a look my pictures to see the real size and how well it camouflaged, hope this will be helpful to decide if items are suitable for personal needs or not.

The cam park trail cam was brought for other half as they saw a video of a hedgehog in a home, unfortunaty we missed the timing for making a hedgehog house this year but there is still lots going on in the garden we can try and see. The camera came well packaged, and when unboxing was quite easy to setup. You will need 8aa batterys and a memory card to make this work but so far my batterys haven't ran out yet and its been going a while now. It has wifi capability via the app which will allow you to connect to the camera to download the images straight to your phone to make life easy. You can set it up to do just images, images and video, or just video, then set the length it can record etc so its very versitile if you only want it to do particular things. In the setup mode you can check all the sensors are working correctly incase you think there is an issue, and also check the sensitivity.Once setup it can be left outside for as long as needed, I did keep checking and no water has got inside the camera so it seals well. The camera comes with a few mounting options to make life easyier on attaching it to things.Overall its a nifty bit of kit, looking forward to setting it up somewhere less accesible in the future to see what we can capture on it!

Item arrived quickly and at a very reasonable price-camouflaged outer is good for creating the right placement for the camera/video-bigger than the smaller mini cameras however that means you get more features. This camera is waterproof and has more sensors so the opportunity to capture is greater. You must buy a good quality sd card and ensure you format it first .... my mistake was rectified.... loads of features- realistically you need to get familiar with the item to get the best from the specifications.you will also need good quality batteries x8 bit you get 5/6 months standby use. In conclusion great quality camera for a good price with loads of functionality- I recommend this product

Update one month on! I have since been using it in video mode and it captures 5-8 short videos a night of my two hog visitors. This was a fantastic purchase. I recommend.Really impressed with this camera. I bought a hedgehog house and wanted to see if it was being used. I’ve strapped the camera to a stake in the garden and can access the camera via Bluetooth/WiFi from my kitchen. The second night the camera managed to capture a photo of the hedgehog, I was so pleased! I’ve been playing around with the settings and have found the photo mode on 8 pictures works for me. I also have it set to only activate from dusk til dawn so I don’t waste batteries during the day with it being activated by birds. I did let it run for a whole day once and caught a great picture of a squirrel carrying its monkey nuts. I also like that it records the temperature as I am now building up a picture of the hedgehogs movements according to time and temperature.
