ENGLISH INTRODUCTION About the Trophy Cam The Bushnell Trophy Cam is a digital scouting camera. It can be triggered by any movement of game in a location, detected by a highly sensitive Passive Infra-Red (PIR) motion sensor, and then take high quality pictures (up to 8MP still photos), or video clips. The Trophy Cam consumes very little power (less than 300mA) in a stand- by (surveillance) state. This means it can deliver up to six months stand-by operation time when the device is powered by

Inserting the SD Card The Trophy Cam has 32MB of internal memory (119466 only), which can hold only about 20 photos (@ 5MP resolution). This is handy for testing and getting familiar with the camera, but you will no doubt want to leave the camera unattended for longer than a day, so using an SD card is recommended for all models. Insert the SD card

USING THE TROPHY CAM Once you’ve prepared your Trophy Cam by properly installing batteries and an SD card, you could simply take it outside, strap it to a tree, switch it on and leave-and you might get some great photos that are exactly what you wanted. However, we highly recommend that you first spend some additional time indoors with this manual and your camera until you know a bit more about what the 3-way switch and those control keys do.
