Hedgehogs & Bushnell camera trap 24oct14 Cambridge UK 938p

hedgehog and the camera trap i use, To catch thieves in the act to provide Police with evidence you could try and use something like a “ trail cam “ a Camera designed for filming wildlife that has a motion sensor so it only starts recording to a sdcard when something moves within its field of view. Unlike CCTV that you would need to leave recording 24 hours a day and then somehow find the time to look back through hours of footage to find the point where something happened after it happened. I know about “Ring” branded doorbells but they would be fixed in one spot on your door and that may not cover the area you need to protect eg you may not park your car right in front of your car door. Or if you have thieves coming over your rear garden fence etc to look in sheds for example a camera on your front door isn’t going to help. I Bought a number of a brand called “ Bushnell” after seeing them used on a very good BBC TV show where they were trying to film rare animals in a jungle somewhere. The model I bought was called a “ Bushnell 119440 “ they vary in price so shop around Amazon is not the best price quite often these days so shop around https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bushnell-119440-Nature-Camera-Colour/dp/B00AU6E2TO they were averaging £260 each in June 2014 on Amazon when some shops were advertising them for up to £340 ! , as I still use mine I can show you how to set this model up. They can record in infrared even if its pitch black outside ( video will look black and white when recorded at night) or in Colour that’s full HD 1080p quality in daylight. I set mine to record for 60seconds at a time when its triggered.( you can set them to record for shorter chunks of time if you wish) By now late 2019 the model number has likely changed to some newer model but they will be very similar. They run off 12 AA batterys. There is a forum about trail cameras i used https://www.chasingame.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=22 where people discuss the latest models of this product category so by all means join that to find out more. You get a nylon material strap to attach the camera trap to trees etc but depending on where you intend to set it up you might want to buy a metal case to put it in that’s lockable so thieves cant take it. http://camlockbox.com/ is where I bought the metal case designed to fit the Bushnell 119440 exactly ( you will need to buy a case that fits the exact camera trap model you purchase so that it doesn’t block any sensor etc) buy Master lock python cable locks to secure the camera and case to a tree or post etc https://store.camlockbox.com/master-lock-camo-python-cable-8418kadcamo/ Here is a video of mine that shows the equipment I use “ Hedgehogs & Bushnell camera trap 24oct14 Cambridge UK 938p https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Hl6SeZ6pEs if you go to my Youtube account https://www.youtube.com/user/AwesomeFullHDvideos/videos then click on playlists then click created playlists then scroll down until you find the playlist called “ Bushnell Camera traps DIY etc 29oct14” which is this link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NPgTjRjDH68&list=PLiVKwaUJvwmWIjSZXLq-I8rv7_eBxCLPO watch those videos to see the equipment I use and a way to hide them very well so thieves or wildlife cant see them . I also bought another thing to put out more infrared light at night to boost the quality of recording I was getting at night you will see it mentioned in my videos. They are called Uway xtendir and I bought them online from Canada or USA( they use 4x D Cell batterys) they made a big difference to the quality of records filmed when its dark and are amazing if filming wildlife that within 5 or 6 feet of the camera.
