Spypoint camera

When spiders do not drape their nuts over the lense, my SPYPOINT micros work ok. For $75 each they are not bad

The good and the bad…
Good: nighttime flash is great in distance and spread, detection distance is better than any camera I have used, you get 100 free pictures a month, small in size, battery life is pretty good but depends on how often it transmits, it is also affordable. No problem so far with reliability (4 cameras), and it performs OTA updates. Daytime pictures have a fast shutter speed an can catch a bird in flight with no blurriness. Annual plan of $100 gives 250 free pictures for an unlimited number of cameras. This is usually enough except for feeders. You can buy AT&T or Verizon camera versions.

Bad: picture quality is pretty crappy especially at night (by far the biggest complaint). This is due to compression and transmission, not the camera itself. You can buy HD pictures for 50 for $5 which gives you close to “normal “ quality. On windy days grass or limb movement will trigger a picture, often it misses taking pictures that it should have made. (My old Moultries never missed a picture but they weren’t cell) Occasionally it randomly takes pictures. If you send pictures immediately as it takes them it will burn through batteries fairly quickly. 6 or less times per day greatly extends battery life.

I dont want or need a camera that makes my cell phone even more important in my life. Its ok to disconnect and not have every gadget. I dont sleep within 100feet of my phone and cant imagine waking up and looking at shitty pics of does every morning.
