First year I ran the big bulky moultire cameras that took c or d batteries. I replaced them with primos cameras that were smaller and none of them made 2 full seasons.

      Do you run them year around?

      You may try putting a piece of plywood or something as a sun shield. I started running them sept- jan to try to get a longer life out of them. I store them when not in use in my house with no batteries in them. I don't know how long I get out of a camera, I brought 3 of my older cams home to put behind my house when they were 4 years old and they were all stolen.

      I am on year 3 for 2 strikeforce and 2 stealths

        I may try a piece of plywood to protect them.

          Focus camera on eBay has them for $65-75 from time to time. They are factory refurbs in a factory package. Can't tell the difference. Pics are still amazing. I just put 2 more out.
          I think they are $72 with free shipping right now.

                I do the same if cattle are not around. I drive 10' galvanized post into the ground and mounted my cam and solar panel about 7' up angled down to keep the cows off em. Works great.

                  Best cams I've had were the old Cuddeback Captures and then the Primos 60 model. The Captures had the best shutter speed, took the best pics, day or night, and were the easiest to set up for this old guy. Three of them, 2 lasted 3+ years and one 2+. The Primos had good daytime pics, OK shutter speed, and were not too hard to set up. 2 yrs out of one, 3 out of one, and one ran 3 years 24/7 at one of my hog feeders. Got a Bushnell there now that seems to be just fine (knock on wood).

                  I've got one Cudde going now and it's just fine, 2 Brownings, the Bushnell, and a Strike Force that I'm not sure about but am going to put it back in service soon, alongside one of the Brownings to verify it is taking pics when animals are in front of it.

                        Laugh all u want, but I've had better luck with the big bulky primos truth 35 than any others. They take pics and have less "blanks" than my others.

                            Smart does this help with sun glare? I've got a camera in one spot and it seems like no matter where I put that dang thing my evening shots tend to have a bad glare. Seems like it would help the camera to switch to black and white in the low light early morning late evening shots as well.
