Review on πŸ“· GardePro E5 Trail Camera 24MP 1296P Game Camera with Rapid 0.1S Motion Activation, 100ft Night Vision, and 90ft Detection Range for Outdoor Wildlife Scouting and Hunting - Brown by Fuzzhead Nelson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The E5 camera works better than the E6 camera for my application

This is the third GardePro camera I've bought, all have good build quality and are fairly easy to navigate and use. The first was the E6 with Bluetooth/Wi-Fi, which performed well when connected up to 100 feet away. in an open field. However, the infrared flash range for night photos/videos was less than what I needed for my particular situation. In my opinion this was mainly due to the slower lens and very wide angle of view, it worked well for daytime use. During the day I left my camera to watch the Bluebird aviary as Bluetooth/Wi-Fi enabled me to stay out of the area to take photos. Then I tried the E5 model, which fully met my needs for night surveillance, a faster lens gave better results in terms of range and illumination, so I ordered a second one. My second camera's infrared flash stopped working but after about ten days I got video with sound but a black screen, this camera was replaced within 48 hours with no problems. In general, the GardePro cameras performed well, the E6 with its wide field of view is best suited for narrow spaces where the distance from the camera to the object is about 10 meters or less, for good night shots, during the day there are no problems, and bluetooth/wi-fi works fine. E5. with a faster lens has a much better range at night, easily over 50ft but a slightly narrower field of view but comparable at that distance. The E5 with Bluetooth/Wi-Fi would be the perfect camera for me. The video shows 30 inch climbing finches in front of the camera
