Customer Reviews
Moultrie Customer Service leaves a lot to be desired!!!!!
I recently purchased 2 of this units. Out of the box, one was defective. I called Moultrie who said ship it back and they would replace it. After waiting a week to hear from them I called and learned that it would take "3 or 4 weeks before my problem was evaluated". I explained that the unit was new and defective but was told it would have to go through their normal repair process, again 3 to 4 weeks.
If you decide to buy this product and have a problem, prepare to be very patient.
Very pleased with this camera
The battery life is excellent on this unit, ours has been out a good two months and battery life is still at 50 percent, and it does not take a lot of unnecessary pictures. We are pretty happy with it. The only peeve is that it does not come with a USB cord, but mostly you can just use the SD Cards and view them straight from the computer on newer computers anyway. You can set it to take like 3 pictures every 10 minutes, or 2 every hour or just one at a time. We haven't tried to do a video yet.
I hope I haven't reviewed the wrong thing, ours says Infrared Activated Game Survelillance Camera 4.0 MP. It looks the very same.
Moultree Undependable?
Let me preface this review with the fact that I own a couple of different game cameras. I have had experience with several brand names. I purchased the Moultree camera from a very well known outdoor outfitter store in mid-August, hoping to get some pictures of the local deer population before the season start in mid-October. I put the camera out, following all instructions, immediately upon returning home from the store. In the following 3 weeks I got several decent shots of the wildlife. After the fourth week, I went out to download pictures to my laptop, and the camera was inactive and inoperable. It worked for 4 weeks. As previously stated, I have other brand name cameras, some cheaper, that have all outlasted the Moultree. I now need to go through the hassle of returning it, etc... etc.... I'm sure that some people probably have had great results from this camera, my experience found it to be undependable.
