first pics from my first cam...

...I'm so pumped!

I set up my HCO Panda on Saturday evening. My first "real" pics were texted this am. I have 150+ pics of nothing but wind blown trees/grass. These are texted pics...therefore seem low-quality. The same pics pulled from the card will be 10x better.

cool, you will be addicted now... got my first camera late last December so I have been doing it for less than 3 months. got 2 cameras myself, one is in the backyard and one is in a secret honey hole over a trophy rock.

How exactly does the email/text feature work? Do you have to pay extra for this. Do you have to have a specific cell provider?

If its Moultrie's system, it's an additional charge and you need to buy a sending unit.

I've had great luck with my cameras but if you don't read the box really closely, you'd think you could set it up and have pictures emailed to you right away. It takes an AT&T signal and a monthy fee to get the pics sent to you. And it takes more batteries unless you get the solar charging unit also. All things I'd get if I wanted to dump $400 a camera set-up plus a monthly fee.

I still use Moultrie and would buy more of them when I need more, but now I know what to expect.

The camera has a SIM card slot. I have a ATT GoPhone prepaid account with unlimited text messages.

Here's the cam

We have noticed that our cam is very sensitive to sun light.

Awesome pics! I only have one cam, but that number will only increase.

Very true! I can't get over the fact I'm 4 hours away from these spots :grin:

I'd never get any work done if my camera updated me everytime a deer walked by. Cost is the only thing stopping me from getting one of these - would love to have it.

You and me both I wished i could get the money up to get a few like that. But i'm thinking about going with moultrie game cams i heard they was the best in the cellular cams but not sure.

Speaking of work, I was sitting in a board meeting yesterday when these popped up. Had to excuse myself to the restroom because I was so excited.
