QDMA's New Camera Book is Out

I've got a copy on the way. I wrote the chapter on how to evaluate trail-cameras--their different functions and the positives and negatives of each, depending upon the intended use of the camera, and the chapter on conducting a non-baited camera census.
 
I believe the real strength of the book is that different people wrote each chapter. This combines the sum knowledge of a lot of experienced people with slightly different viewpoints and techniques. This is the way the QDMA's food plot book was done and I think it added considerably to its value.

I received my copy last week and have thoroughly enjoyed what I have read so far. A lot of info in the book confirms what I have learned over the last 5 or 6 years. BSK did an outstanding job on his chapters. Excellent color photos of deer doing some interesting things. GREAT BOOK!
 
BSK- did your survey consider cameras that were mounted at normal, waist height with cameras that were placed higher and angled down?

I'd be curious to see how the deer react in this situation.

Are you talking about the article I had in Quality Whitetails about camera avoidance or what I wrote in the book chapters?

Any arcticle. I've heard if you mount the camera high and aim it down the deer associate the flash with natural occurences such as lightning.
 
The "mount high and point down" set-up will reduce camera avoidance DRAMATICALLY, especially with red-glow cams, but that set-up limits your trigger area to just a spot on the ground. Deer away from that spot will may not trigger the camera.

You gain something and lose something...

If deer grow up with cameras taking their pictures their whole life, will they not become accustomed to them?

Somewhat, but I still see camera avoidance from deer that have been flashed all their life (or at least their adult life).
