The Bushnell 3,5,7 MP Trail Scout Pro Digital Trail Camera with Game Call can produce detailed still images in 7.0 MP resolution, can also detect game out to 90 feet and has a built-in flash. Its built-in Night Vision capability means that hunters can image game at night at a range of up to 15 feet without using a visible flash, which may "spook" some game. The camera provides extended battery life, fast trigger times and weatherproof construction so it can perform without fail in any climate or application. It produces high quality, color photos, and it can be set to take still images or video clips.
Although technically advanced, the Trail Scout Pro is easy to set up and operate. Toggle switches make it easy to set all the camera functions - even while wearing gloves and a built-in laser pointer makes it easy to more precisely aim and position the camera on a tree or post. It can be programmed to take still or video images and can be set up to operate during daytime only or nighttime only, or 24 hours a day. And can provide a time/date and name stamp for keeping records of game activity. It can also provide a moon phase stamp to correlate game activity to the monthly cycle. For monitoring active game trails or feeding areas, the camera has a delay feature that sets the camera to record images with 30-second, 1-minute and 2-minute delays. Images are stored on SD cards, and the SD slot is easy to reach and access.
The Trail Scout trail camera offers several levels of security. The trail cameras can be secured in place with a cable lock or anchored with a screw. The waterproof case can also be padlocked to prevent access to the SD card and control panel, and a user-entered password provides the final level of security.
