MOON PHASE STAMP

All new Trail Sentry models have a “moon phase” stamp feature. This links the current date (as set by the user in the setup procedure) to the phase of the moon on that date (this data is stored on an internal memory chip), and imprints a icon on your photo which represents the moon phase when the photo was taken. The moon phase icon will appear on your photos in the lower left, next to the Bushnell logo.Some hunters will find this to be a useful reference, as it can help determine if particular animals are inactive at night when a full or nearly full moon is present, causing them to be more visible to predators. Or, if some of your night photos seem to have a darker or lighter background (beyond the range of the LED lamps or flash), you can see if that was related to how bright the moon was at the time. The icons for the various phases of the moon are shown below:

ABOUT THE PIR SENSOR

The sensor that triggers the trail camera is Passive Infra Red, or PIR. Infrared energy is essentially heat energy. The PIR detector operates by sensing a change in the infrared level in its detection zone. This zone is a cone in the center 10 degrees of the camera’s field of view. The camera establishes an average long-term infrared level. When this level increased suddenly the PIR detector signals the camera to record a picture and/or an event. Because of this effect, the PIR detector will be more sensitive at night, when the average temperature is lower.

You can use the red LED indicator on the front of the camera to confirm the detection zone.When PIR is sensed, this “PIR detected” indicator will light. The camera’s field of view is a 45 degree cone, centered on the PIR detection

zone.

119505, 119305 specifications

The Bushnell 119305 and 119505 are two versatile trail cameras designed for outdoor enthusiasts and wildlife enthusiasts alike. These cameras are engineered to deliver high-quality images and videos while being user-friendly and durable. Both models share several key features and technologies that make them stand out in the crowded market of trail cameras.

One of the main features of the Bushnell 119305 is its 16-megapixel photo resolution, which ensures crystal-clear images of wildlife in their natural habitats. The camera's motion-activated technology captures images and videos whenever it detects movement, providing users with a comprehensive overview of the wildlife activity in the area. The 119505 model offers an even higher 20-megapixel resolution, allowing for even finer detail and clarity in the shots. This capability is particularly beneficial for monitoring game and observing animal behaviors over time.

Both models are equipped with an infrared night vision feature, allowing them to capture images and videos in low-light conditions without spooking animals. The Bushnell 119305 has a range of up to 60 feet at night, while the 119505 offers an impressive 80 feet range. This technology is crucial for nocturnal wildlife observation, ensuring that users receive quality footage regardless of the time of day.

In terms of build quality, both trail cameras are designed to withstand the rigors of outdoor use. They are weather-resistant, ensuring durability even in harsh environmental conditions. The cameras also come with a quick trigger speed, ensuring that even the fastest animals are captured in action. The 119305 boasts a 0.3-second trigger speed, while the 119505 improves upon that with a 0.2-second response time.

Another notable feature is the extended battery life, which allows both models to operate for months without frequent changes. This is particularly advantageous for users who place cameras in remote locations. Additionally, the cameras are equipped with an SD card slot, with the ability to support cards up to 32GB, which allows for ample storage for captured images and videos.

With user-friendly interface designs and customizable settings, the Bushnell 119305 and 119505 are ideal choices for both beginners and seasoned users. Their blend of advanced technology, rugged durability, and high-resolution capabilities make them excellent tools for wildlife observation and outdoor exploration. Whether for hunting, research, or simply enjoying nature, these trail cameras are equipped to deliver reliable performance.
