1.1 General Description

The Bushnell Trophy Cam is a digital scouting camera. It can be triggered by any movement of live animals in a location, detected by a highly sensitive Passive Infra-Red (PIR) motion sensor, and then take high quality pictures (up to 5MP still photos), or video clips.

The BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM consumes very little power (less than 300μA) in a stand-by (surveillance) state. This means it can have up to six months stand-by operation time when the device is powered by eight AA alkaline batteries, and up to twelve months utilizing lithium AA batteries. Once motion in the monitored area is detected, the digital camera unit will be triggered at once (typically within one second) and then automatically take pictures or videos according to previously programmed settings. The TROPHY CAM is equipped with built-in infrared LEDs that function as a flash, so that it deliver clear images or videos (in black & white) even in the dark, and it can take color pictures or videos under sufficient daylight. The device is designed for outdoor use and is resistant against water and snow.
