Side by Side Comparison of: Moultrie vs SanDisk vs BoneView

I already own a D cell camera (6 battery) Moultrie and got tired of replacing expensive batteries. This AA set up seems to last much longer. The pictures are clear and daytime color is accurate. Nighttime b/w sometimes hazy but lets me know what's out there. The mounting strap is long enough to get around large trees and the bolt hole underneath allows me to mount this to the lid of my deer feeder. I've used this to capture photos of feral cats entering our home to get to our cat's food bowl, as well as a raccoon. I wondered why the food was disappearing and our cat was so skinny.

This is a really impressive camera for the money, it's fast, clear and one of the easiest to program I've ever seen.
Mine captured pictures out to 42 feet in the dark, very faint red glow to the lights, shouldn't spook game.
I ran a initial test just after dark and it looks great, set it in my backyard tonight to capture some deer and whatever else walks by pics.
The real test will be this week, I'm setting it up at a water tank at my deer hunting property tomorrow.

Got this for husband for deer season it takes great pictures we have awesome pictures of bucks and does. We also name pictures of the Bucks fighting. We had lost our salt blocks but after reviewing pictures the raccoons rolled them off. We also got great pictures of squirrels and by Drs along with 2 of the neighbor dogs. Was amazed at the quality of the pictures. Also bought the ad card to go with it. After a few days of taken nag pictures every time we checked at least able ut 1000 photos highly recommend

Love the value of this camera. Have 4 between my dad and myself. All work great and have now been out through a couple of very heavy rains with no issues. We have a couple of the higher end moultries (880 and 880i) and in many ways we actually like these more because they are so simple and do the job. One note of caution: if you want your night shots to come out you must have a 100% clear line of site between the camera and the game or the image will get blown out.

Awesome camera. Easy to use and setup. I took this picture last week at my deer feeder. This bear already lowered one barrel of corn before I got smart and wrapped a locking chain around the winch handle. I love the pictures this thing takes.

these is the 5th time I have ordered these I just filled three of the 8gb with all the CD's containing music so I could retrieve some wall space in my home. could not believe I got close to 400 cd on these three. the sound quality is as good as the cd's I have found I could place a three drawer file cabinet full of scanned papers on one and now I am looking to get more to transfer all my DVD movies onto. Scan disk has been consistent in their quality so I turn to them repeatedly. I do not hesitate to recommend them.

I bought these cards to give to someone along with a an older Canon SX-10 IS camera I was no longer using. The recipient of the cards is happy with how they work and I have used these same cards in trail cameras with no troubles. Obviously, they are best used in cameras and devices that do not require high speed recording so if you are looking to use these on a more recent camera you should probably look at higher capacity Class 10 cards. If all you want to do is take photos they will work fine for you, and while I've used them for short videos, there are better choices for not much more money.

I have a canon camcorder that is a couple years old. It has an internal.memory and slots for 2ad cards. The color on the internal memory was never right. The sub slot would not work. I could do a work around with orca but the color was still bad. I ordered an Sd card. It came in a day I told my wife she was about to hear either sounds of complete joy or of the camera smashing against the wall. It worked! Recorded perfectly. Put it in a card reader to download,made a DVD,watched the dvd. The playback was perfect. Your sd card made me have the happiest day I ever had with a computer or camera.

These work fine. I had one go bad once and it turned out to be a bigger deal to exchange it than it was worth, so I just view them as expendable now and go on. Maybe they work for storage, but I just use them to transport images from cameras to hard drives. They seem more reliable than I imply with the sentences above. I suspect water does not compromise them, nor does heat or cold, as far as I can tell. 8 GB holds a lot of one megapixel images. Class 4 is fast enough for several of the items that I own that I use these in (for instance they are fast enough for images from a Primos Truth Cam 35 camera (a.k.a. one type of Trail Cam), which is a type of mounted, motion sensing, day and night camera that can be left out in the elements for weeks or more).

SanDisk is the best! I use SanDisk flash memory cards exclusively with all of my electronics that require them, e.g., trail cameras and other digital cameras. I have never had a SanDisk memory card fail to work and have used them where they were exposed to temperatures ranging from 1 degree (F) to 100 degrees (F) and in the rain and snow. I have several SanDisk memory cards and use them on a daily basis. As a matter of fact, I have four trail cameras operating right now that run 24 hours a day 365 days a year.

I use these in my Primos Game Camera's that I have set up for Security Camera's.They are re-usable and I get 1159 High Definition pictures on each SD card.I can lock each sd card to save the data on each card if I want.I highly recommend this to anyone needing a memory card.

I have tried many different SD cards for my game cameras and the SanDisk has never let me down like some of my fellow hunters and game watchers.I have cards from 8GB - 32GB and run them in Browning Game Cameras in a 5 second delay 4-rapid fire shot mode all season and most of the summer with no issues. Any basic card reader that can be used with you smart phone or tablet/laptop will read these as well.

I needed some extra memory cards and loved that this came with two. I've used SanDisk in the past and have always been pleased with how my photos turned out so I went looking for this brand when I needed to buy new ones. I take super large photos but not sure how many can be taken on each of these as I've yet to fill one up since my purchase. The price was great on these, I'm considering buying a couple more to keep in my camera bag just to have.

The price was right on these, and they are going to be perfect when I take them on my trip to WAlt disney world. I have already used one of them and it was perfect. Glad I ordered them

Perfect for storing home videos, photos, data, spreadsheets, programs, and games. Doesn't like storing water though.

Perfect for Nikon D7200 dual card slot. DSLR cameras are tricky little devices, I have an arsenal of memory cards. However, only a few of the cards will work with my camera, and thease are in that few. Works perfectly, holds large format photos with no problems.My newest Nikon has two card slots, The second one is there for overflow, and I haven't had to use it yet.

I Love the Bone View it Works Great with my IPhone 7 Plus. All you have to do is download a free app called(I-Flash Device) put your SD card in. By the way it excepts two different size SD cards. Just plug it into your phone and it immediately downloads all pictures, from there you can save the pictures you like and delete the rest. You can pull the card out of your Camera check it with your phone right there in the woods no signal required. This was the best $25 I've ever spent.

Because I'm a awesome wife, I let my husband play with his Christmas gift early and he absolutely loves it! He is a very active hunter and walks miles into the woods and now he doesn't have to carry numerous devices to read his trail cams! It's a great gift and a must have for a hunting husband!

i've used this with my iPhone7, my iPad and a Windows 10 lap top. It works well for the pictures on all 3. The videos from my WildGame Innovations camera work (AVI format) on my Win10 laptop, Not so much on my iPhone. I have an Otterbox on my iPhone so I have to use the adapter. There is no problem with the adapter, but it does seem to be a little flimsy. I would like to see a more robust design for the adapter. Overall I am very satisfied with the device.

Works perfect. Easy to use. No need to remove iPhone from its protective case. Comes with extension but not needed for my case, but my buddy used the extender with his Otter Case and said he had to buy an extender for his viewer sold by someone else. His pictures are not numbered and he is always searching for the best pics he passed by in the list. These pictures are numbered, timed and dated to find again quickly. Easy to text or email straight from the App.

This worked great the first time i used it now my app that they recommended says it is faulty. What is going on?

Only reliable card reader for the iPhone. So easy to use and also lows you to view and delete photos in the app. no more carrying tablet into the woods. only issue is it doesn't fit the iPhone 6 Plus if you have your case on. not a big issue to me. only reason it gets 4 stars

I purchased two of these to monitor piece of property I own in the woods as someone was stealing my fire wood. While I haven't caught the person the cameras have been great. The picture quality is as described and the kids love seeing the videos of all the deer that hang out while we aren't there.

My only complaint would be the delay from when motion is detected to when it starts recording. The cameras are positioned facing a road to catch the front license plate of cars that pass by however, by the time it starts recording it only catches the back end of the vehicle. I was able to re-position them to correct the problem but the delay does seem a little long.

I've only had it out in the field two weeks.

Pros:

Cheap as far as game cameras go
Takes nice daytime pictures

Cons:

Night motion is terrible
Delay of 10 seconds is the fastest it will go
It is not waterproof, when I opened the case after two weeks water poured out of the battery compartment

I'm also not sure of the detector quality, but it could be due to lack of deer movement in that area. The date is wrong on the attached picture, but the time is right.

The camera is of a good size, weight and basic features. I bought a '2 pack', one had power problems right out of the box. I called Moultrie and they said I could send to them and they would replace it - nice and all, but I would pay for shipping to them and they never offered and RMA number. How would this be tracked? No idea. Amazon had my back and let me return one of the two, immediately sent me a replacement unit, I immediately sent them the bad one. The replacement unit was fine and seems to work without issue. The model makes me nervous, but time will tell.

Update - One unit has now spent all of March up on the Iron Range in northern Minnesota. It took great pictures and worked as expected. It was rained on, snowed on and all is good so far. Put the second unit up, we will see what shows up next time I make my rounds and change cards.

I tell you i have many different cameras. You cant go wrong with moultrie products. I read alot of reviews on this product on here and it seems like people don t have the basic camera concept!! Sure their is many better cams on the market. If your willing to pay $300- $500. The price an quality of the A-5 gen 2 is good. Night time pic,well its a night time pick. Could be better but still gets the job done.This cam takes pic of decent quality holds up to my needs

I can't imagine that you'll find a better trail cam for the money. This camera is sturdy, easy to set up, and reliable. Picture quality could be better, no question, and it doesn't have the greatest range or angle of capture, so it's best used in areas where you've got a good idea of activity (or as a feeder camera). This is still a tremendously good value, however.

Good Flash mem

THEY WORK WELL

I have several camera's these disc's will work in all of them..

They work OK , but, I would buy a faster card like a (10) SDHC flash memory card. You can just about see the rating marked on the card.
I did not know how they were rated at the time I bought them , but, the 8- (4)SDHC work fine. I would like to max out the speed of the camera with a faster memory card like the (10). Next Time America.

I use a lot of SD cards in game cameras left "in the field" to document wildlife movements. The San Disk brand are as good as any, and normally more economical, so I tend to use a lot of them. This was a good price on a good product.

I ordered these 16 gig chips for my Moultrie Game Camera. They work fine. I have been using SanDisk memory products for many years and am very happy with their dependability and usefulness. Thanks. CC46/Jimmy Fielding

Always order these, they last about 6-8 months which is not too bad

Good product

I bought these as a gift. I've never been let down by SanDisk memory cards.

work fine

They shipped super fast! I have used them a few times in my DSLR and the upload and download speeds were very nice. It's not one of my top choices but SD choices but I keep two in my bag in case I need one in a pinch. Also they are very handy for shooting stills when I am using my nicer SD card for shooting video during a shoot.

This is handy for viewing trail camera card on the iPad. Had to download app on iPad and phone to use it. Not sure we fully understand about saving pictures etc but the app includes instructions, just a slow learner maybe.

Haven't had the chance to use this yet, so I can't give full stars. My boyfriend is always begging to borrow my camera, or lap top to put his SD card in when he gets home from checking trail cams. He hates the hassle, and often misplaces the card on the way home. I love this idea! He can take the viewer with him, and check the card right there in the woods! No need to make multiple trips! I'm really excited for him to open up this christmas gift. I think it's something that is absolutely worth the money spent!

I have recently purchased the card reader from bone view and due to the end of our season, I have not been able to use it for the normal use of my cameras. But what I did was, set up a Camera within the house and took pictures and videos with just the motion that goes by the camera in our every day life and read the SD card from the camera on the boneview card reader and it is very simple to use and very compatible with my iPhone 6s. I can't wait till next season to see deer and animals I capture in the bush as I scout for hunting.Happy boneview card reader owner.

Everything works as it should. Awesome little contraption. Only problem I've had so far is that, I tried to delete files after I viewed the pix in it, it jammed up and wouldn't show anymore files. I seriously thought I had somehow erased the entire card somehow. All I had to do is to remove it, and restart the process. Worked like a charm ever since. But, I have started waiting to erase using my game cam, it's just easier to use it than my phone and this reader. Not to mention, way faster!!!! All in all, awesome deal, awesome product.

Works as expected and easy to use. Makes it A LOT easier than hauling my tablet up into the woods for viewing my trail cams. I can see that it will also be useful for loading from my conventional camera directly to my iphone.The unit itself has well designed protective plastic covers, and I would have given it 5 stars if the little adapter for thick cases that came with it had a cover too.

Product works great. I simply followed the instructions once I received the photo viewer and I had pictures on my phone in no time. I had no errors and did not have to format any of my cards.I am using this with and iPhone 6s with a Lifeproof Fre case and the adapter that came in the kit works perfectly. I just hope the small components hold up and don't break off too easily as they seem a bit flimsy.

Still working well letting us know which pug is peeing on the wall but havin a large card in it for long periods means theres lots of pictures to sort through. Although the watermark timestamp on the pictures is correct the file creation date is always random regardless of the accuracy of the bios clock which makes organizing by date pointless. I contacted the manufacturer and was informed that this is known and nothing is being done about it. I won' be buying another..

I purchased this camera to replace an older Moultrie D55 refurb I had purchased in 2013 that was starting to show some age. There are pros and cons to each of the cameras, over all, I am a little disappointed by this newer model. Perhaps the older model was a higher class camera, but it outperforms the A-5 in image quality.

The older Moultrie D55 has higher quality images, a temperature sensor, and what I consider a better user interface on the camera. The camera card is harder to insert and remove however. There are no other ways to mount the D55 other than wrapping it around a tree. Also, the video mode didn't seem to work too well, and it seemed like the sensor was weaker in video mode (didn't capture anything for months, but then captured many photos once I changed it off video). The image quality at night is very sharp, and very little graininess.

The newer A-5 camera is easy to set up the picture options, but I can't tell how many photos are remaining, or have been taken, or what the battery life currently is as easily as the older Moultrie. The image quality at night is much lower. Almost all photos come out very grainy and always blurry. I love the tripod mount on the bottom, I was able to drive a metal rod into the ground and use a cheap go-pro adapter to mount this camera at a height around 3 feet. Very slick (a chipmunk is using it as his lookout post). Despite the fact that I have set the time and date multiple times, and the pictures record the current date and time, the dates on the files as they are stored on the card are off by 1 year, 3 months, 22 days, 1 hour and 2 minutes. Not a big deal, as they are still chronological on the card, you just can't look for a picture on a certain date by looking at the file dates, you need to open the pictures up and look at the date stamped on the image. Odd indeed. The A-5 sensor seems to be much more sensitive than the older D55. This is good and bad. It has picked up birds in flight, but it also picks up trees blowing in the wind 50 feet away.

Over all, its a pretty good camera for the price. A little disappointed the image quality is lower, and the file date issue is a nuisance. I love the tripod mount option (in addition to the strap).

Looking at photos by other reviewers it appears the night photo quality varies quite a bit from camera to camera. Others had pics that were crystal clear and some appeared fuzzy or washed out by the night vision lighting. Daytime photo quality is okay but mine is one with the fuzzy night vision lighting.

Two more negatives are:
1. The overall size of this camera is quite large,
2. It doesn't give an indication on the LCD screen if there are pictures on the card and how many. A friend of mine has a game cam from a different manufacturer and you can see the LCD without opening it and it displays a picture count.

For the positives, the daytime pictures are okay (it's no Nikon D90) and the camera itself is relatively inexpensive.

For $50.00 it's hard to go wrong as long as it works but it definitely has it limitations. It won't do well what I bought it for. I wanted to know what critters I had visiting my water dish at night. During the day I see lots of birds, rabbits and the occasional coyote but I suspect there is more at night (in variety, not quantity). Also I have mystery burrows I never see used that are too big for the ground squirrels.

After two nights of testing I have discovered two things that I don't like about this entry level camera. The night pictures are very low quality due to lack of light as well as a low resolution camera. The pictures are not so bad you can't identify the subject but definitely nothing you'd want to save. The real problem is the motion detector. It's very erratic. It's slow to detect motion to the point that your subject may already be off screen or might not detect at all. The first morning I brought the camera in right after two quail had gotten their morning drink but neither tripped the detector so no picture at all. I got a fuzzy picture of a jackrabbits rump in the first of three series but the second and third had no critter. Testing with myself as the subject I got fair results if I was walking towards or away from the camera with the lights on but if I walked across the cameras view or turned the lights out the results were marginal.

I think this camera would be fine for large game, especially during the day, but for small animals at night or for personal property security you will be disappointed. I suggest spending more money. Somebody could steal a thousand dollars worth of your stuff and this $50.00 camera wouldn't help you catch or identify them unless they stopped to pose but then they'd take camera too since it's not designed for a permanent mount

Pros: Set Up is relatively easy. Use is easier. Set a couple of variables, turn it on and walk away.
Cons:" No memory card. No batteries. No way to look at your pictures. There is no display and the cable you need to download to a computer is not included. I understand not including the batteries but not including at least a 4 gig card and the patch cable is just stupid, especially when they don't mention the cable in the sales lit. You can pull the card and slip it into something that can read it but that excludes everything but a desktop with card readers or another digital camera. The cable and anything with a USB port is much simpler.

Takes great, clear pictures but the range is no where near 40 ft. Its more like 10 ft. I wasn't getting the pictures I expected so I tested it (a couple of times) and walked towards it. It did not take any pictures until I was within 10 ft. of it. I'm returning it and looking for a different one.

Becoming obsolete by Apple and Samsung products

The only complaint I have about this product is that the Flash Memory cards did not come with a plastic storage case. Once you open the package their is nothing to put the memory cards into when they are not being used.

Grandsons needed these for school. Assume they do the job as they have not complained about them

These were advertised as 8 GB.I rec'd two 4GB cards. That's okay, I can use same.

I think these will work fine, I just got the wrong ones. I needed the mini's. I will find a use though.

Was my fault for not reading better but work well for my 7 y.o. daughter to use for her items

No Problems

Pros: They're cheapCons: They're slow for a DSLR

Quit working

We got these for my husband's game cams, and one worked, one did not. Sadly we were bummed, because the one we places the non-working one at, has the most activity.

wrong memory cards

app crashes every once in a while, but otherwise very convenient

did not realize there was an app to download to use this product. but followed the instructions and it works pretty good. lots easier than using a lap top

I'm rating this item 3 Stars This device is very convenient & saves lots of leg work & time. It seams to be constructed well but my main issue is that it goes offline more than it stays online. This is very frustrating. If there is a way to keep this device on a steady connection then it would easily rate 5stars.

Working great to view pictures but after cycling for an hour it still hasn't deleted any photos. I can delete on my trail cam so it is still useful

Had to purchase an app to see pictures.

Worked great for the first week, didn't even mind having to take my phone case off. Unfortunately I am constantly getting a "corrupted" message and being told to go to a website to format it. After going to the website it worked for a couple of days, but now it's right back to saying corrupted 3 out of 5 uses.3 stars because the first week I really enjoyed checking the pictures on my phone and saving them so easily.

This camera, The moulturd A-4 is lacking.
This is very unreliable camera, if you taped it to a game feeder you might see some game.
For the money.. the two best field camera products I have ever deployed are....
Scoutguard and Cuddeback.
However my most recent Cuddeback purchase has left me very disgruntled.
They do not make them like they used to. Chinese now I am sure.
Its a leaky piece of crap that will probably not make it through the season.
Anyway don't buy this moulturd!
sorry for the punctuation, buzzed and disappointed:(

Over the years I have purchased many different brands of field cameras.
This might be at the bottom of the barrel, Hard to say for sure as I have been through so many.

The unit takes nice pictures and had nice options for the price. But I noticed after a couple months that it would quit working. I would take it inside for the day, take out the batteries, put them back in, and then it would work. Lately it developed a fog over the top left part of the camera lens. There is also a fog in some of the infrared bulbs.

Yesterday it quit working. So I brought it inside. But it is not working today either. SO I think that whatever was causing it to occasionally fail has killed it.

Moultrie makes a great camera but this one has to be tied to something to stand up. We have big trees that have ants and poison ivy so I don't have an easy place to tie it. I also don't like the way the set up is done and it is not clear when you are erasing the disk. I have since bought another Moultrie, the 999i mini and that one is perfect. It sits up but is light weight and easy to figure out. I also loved the old 65 which was definitely heavy but for my purpose - watching the deer where I feed them - pets it sat on top of a stump or box just right. It had a weak switch connection though and fizzled out after a while.

I've had a Generation 1 out since August with no problems whatsoever and still on the original batteries. I bought a Generation 2 and have had issues with it from Day 1. The camera just went 5 days without taking one pic and has repeatedly failed to take pics while I'm walking up to it. On multiple occasions it took pics for 2 days after I fed then stopped taking pics once the deer starting coming to the feed again. I killed a nice 9 point that it failed to take pics of the 2nd time it came out after getting pics the first time. I also repeatedly get late pics that only show half the deer...........the half without a head..................which is also useless.

Additionally, it blows my mind the neither camera has a cover over the battery compartment. It hasn't been a problem with Gen 1 other than moisture getting in but the batteries will fall out when you open the Gen 2 if you're not careful. How much would that cover really cost? 15 cents?

I am pretty disappointed with this camera so far. First off the cheap plastic mounting strap buckled broke when I went to mount it. I have an older model moultrie and it is a way better design then this one. I had to go through 4 working sd cards before I found one that would not show "card full" even though they had nothing on them. The picture quality is poor along with the range of the motion sensor. Over all this is a very poor example of a moultrie product and I'd never buy another one of these.

The memory card stopped working while I was taking wedding pictures, I was unable to get any of the pictures off the card after it stopped working. I luckily had extra memory cards on me. If you're a photographer, do yourself a favor and invest in good memory cards, these are unreliable.

Always make sure to double check s/h prices first. 11.00 to ship a lightweight 8.00 package is rridiculou.

Disappointed they didn't come in the protective plastic cases like most sd cards come in.

they did not work in my game camera, do not know if they are to large (8) and I need a smaller, will check with the camera specs

Apparently these are micro-sd cards. Would be nice if it said so or was pictured as such.

The first one failed after only a week of usage; the message was "this is a read-only card".

Did not work in any of my cameras gave away

The memory card was corrupted when I tried to upload the pictures into my computer. I lost a good chunk of the files and with it memories from my trip.

Well if each card is worth 2.5 stars I'll give this one a 2.5. One card doesn't even work. I tried formatting it. Using on different devices and locking and unlocking it. Seems dumb to ship one good and one bad product. Can't give it more then a 2 because I bought two cards and only one works.

Using these in trail cams. Bought 2 one worked fine, one would not work on either device.

they would not format so i could use them. could not send back because the seller would not pay for return shipping. i did not have the money to do it.

This only works half of the time when it does it's great but great frustration having to mess with it using 2 different phones to try to view pictures

Liked it at first. Ruined a card and quit working. I viewed some great bear video. then it quit and all was black.

Save yourself some money and buy the apple sd card reader.... The adapter on this stopped working after a few uses.....

Not as good as I expected. Sometimes does not read all SD cards. Wound up purchasing an Apple product at a cheaper price and works better.

I purchased this item almost 1 year ago and it worked fantastic....until the 11 month point when it just stopped being able to download the SD cards from our trail camera. I am extremely disappointed that it only lasted 11 months. Not sure I would recommend it...I will be trying out their 100% money back guarantee.....

This product worked great! I got it for my husband min August for his birthday and He really liked it, but now 2 months later it barley works. We have passed the Amazon return window so I'm going to try to contact the actual company.

I've purchased 13 individual Moultrie products, and 7 of the 13 have failed within the warranty period. That is over 50%! On the positive side, the customer service I've received from Moultrie has been wonderful. Last year, after expressing my concerns about their lack of quality, they actually sent me a brand new camera. No return. No warranty. Just a new camera. That's service and a great way to try to retain a customer. With that said, I'm finally having to turn my back on Moultrie. I've got an A5 and the wireless modem both not functioning and boxed up ready to ship back to Moultrie. When I get the replacements, I'll probably just sell all my Moultrie products Craigslist. Will spend the extra money and get a Stealthcam next time

I've had notihng but problems with setting this camera up to take pictures. As was written by someone else, this camera's range is nowhere close to 40' and as the other person's review sated, this camera has only a range of about 10'. Very, very disappointed especially when you are in the hunting season and find out the camera you purchased and attempted to use doesn't perform to the manufactures specifications. Moultrie's customer service gave me some suggestions which didn't work either and suggested I sent the unit back. I tried at least a dozen times to set this up and it still would only take photos in the 10' range. Also the camera liked to take pictures of just the woods without and animals in any of the photo.

In the evening, I set up a dead squirrel as bait 12-15 feet in front of the camera. In the morning I went out to check and the squirrel was gone. I took the card out of the camera and took it in to view on my computer to see what animal had taken the squirrel and the only picture on the card was of me walking up to the camera that morning. Prior to this, I had it set up on my deck (above a walkout basement so about 12 feet off the ground) to see what critter was messing with bird feeders and tipping over plants, etc. I had it pointed at the stairs but about 25 feet away. I did get one picture of a raccoon - a closeup of about 3 feet away but nothing of it coming up the stairs and approaching the camera. I thought maybe it didn't use the stairs and climbed up one of the deck support legs from behind the camera. That was the only thing that made sense to me but didn't seem that plausible that the raccoon would shinny up a 12 foot 6x8 post as opposed to taking the stairs. Now that I know the camera isn't taking pictures when it should, i.e., the squirrel test, that explains why it didn't take pictures of the raccoon coming up the stairs. I am returning the camera to Amazon and will try another brand.

UPDATE: I contacted the seller and they suggested I use a slower speed SDHC card. I was using a class 10 card (which they said was too fast for the camera) so I tried a class 6 card and still had problems. I had to return it to the seller (not Amazon directly) and it is taking a bit longer. They said when they receive it back they will issue me a refund. Hoping for the best and will update if there is an issue with the return.

I bought two of these after reading the reviews. One unit is still working the other unit failed in less than 30 days. The seal failed causing the unit to fill with water and not function. I have been trying to find one of these units that will last more than a single season and will have to keep looking this one was a complete waist of money!!!!!! Do not buy this brand!!!

Put batteries in and left out for three days. Took it back and couldn't even get it to turn on. It's going back. I have another one that was bought locally that works great. Trying to save time backfired on this purchase.

One is working as advertised; one worked once and then quit. Would not buy again.

one of the cards is defective. have it in a camera and it does not record a picture. tried it in other device and it still does not work.
not worth sending back for one card. I don't know if the other card is bad. I don't have the packaging any longer so will put in the trash.

Disappointed in the quality of the last batch I received. We have used SanDisk in the past. The tab to lock the card has broken off, which prevents us from using the card in our camcorder. Thus has happened with 6 of the 8 cards we bought. We tried taping over the area, but the card is too thick to fit in the camera.

One of the memory cards was damaged right out of the package. One of the gold pieces on the back was bent outwards. Cannot use.

Product was not as described in the ad. The advertisement said that it could be used in cell phones this why i made this purchase. This was incorrect. It doesn't fit. I had to make another purchase for the right size. I didn't bother to send this product back for a refund because it was too much of a hassle.

These are mini cards, not the regular size. The product description does not say that in the title. I tried to return them as soon as they arrived (same day) and the seller did not accept the return.

one of the cards stopped working after 2 weeks...

took long time to get and having trouble working in game camara

didnt get

Would not format.

1 out of 2 have failed so far. It has only been a short time since I purchased these.

Worked the first time I used it and never worked again. Just says "devise off line" and won't download any pics from SD card. Verified I had 35 pics to review with onothwr viewer but this thing doesn't work at all. Best to go with a quality viewer and avoid the frustration. I saw 3 stars and usually avoid that but thought I would chance it. Should have trusted the reviews.

I purchased this product to view my SD cards for my trail Cams. I read the reviews about it not working but chose to try it. I was able to use it for a couple of months but it was never reliable. It would work one minute and then it wouldn't. I've downloaded, deleted, and reloaded all the apps. It's very frustrating when you are miles away from a computer and you can't get it to work. And of course now I can't return it. I would not recommend this product.

Meh, won't work with certain cell phones ( iPhone 6 ) doesn't come with what app to use, so you are stuck going through a ton of different ones to find one that works. Pretty disappointed as it could be a great device.

Doesn't work. The information available online to help trouble shoot is worthless. I have messed with this thing on and off the past couple of months and will never buy another product from these people.

This is a good item but if you can't get the app that goes with it then it is not a good item. Hard to follow. I still have this and can't use it, I can't send it back as it is past it's return date. used once and couldn't get pictures, Was not impressed.

Difficult to get to work. I have two readers, one shows half green screen and half the photo. I also am now kicked out of the app each time I play a video. Tried on iphone 5c, 6s and ipad. Ipad eleminated green screen but still kicked out each time I started video. Maybe an app problem, They should have developed their own app so it would work!
