Who else uses one. I got one from dicks flash sale online for 30 bucks. Took pretty good pics in the garden. Moved it to the woods for a week or so. It took about half good pics and half white pics. Some very whited out and some entirely blank white. Guess you get what you pay for. Anyone else have this issue?

Havnt tried those but got two primos work horse cams from dicks for 29$ and they take great pics. Had 1600 pics on it and still 90% battery life left and all pics were good.

I got one myself the problem I had is it seems like it was set to take pictures every 30 seconds because it took 1800 pics in 2 days and 1700 of them were blanks...

That is a program within the camera and I Hate IT!!! I HAVE HAD THE MOST DIFFICULT TIME PROGRAMMING THAT IDIOT THING.
 
Yea,at least one of ours is doing that cat. I read other reviews also that said the same. For some reason, some of them are not switching from the night IR during the day, causing whiteout. I see nothing on how to correct it.
Also read a review where guy set it up in garage with no movement and got over 1000 pics. So, there is a motion sensor issue too. Unless it's strong enough to pick up a fly. Again, I see no way to correct by my searches.
Even for $30 to $50, whatever folks have paid, these problems should not occur if quality control was in any way being done.
 
Btw, for those that bought and are not having trouble, are you time and dating your cards? For those having trouble, are you NOT time and dating? This is just a observation, but I have seen folks post pics with comment that they are not having issues, but they format card to time and date. Most that don't, seem to have issues. But, this could be a total coincidence.

no I updated the date and time first thing. The card is automatically formatted when you put one in and turn the camera on.

The Easy Cams will give you a time/date stamp and moon phase. I installed the Time Tool on my computer, put your SD card in, find the "update" button and click. Then press the button with three dots, find your SD card and double click it. You are ready to go. Just put the SD card in the camera and leave it.
