wtnhunt Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 Finished this one up the other day, and finally got it out today after bowhunting for a little while this morning. Think this one may just be the nicest one I have built yet. Went with a yeti board this time instead of a pix board. Sony p41 camera, used a wide angle pir lens for wider detection range, and a flash enhancing lens to extend the flash range a bit. All tucked nicely into a 1040 pelican case, first 3d camo job on this one too, a shot of it in the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TKLambert Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 Where do you get all the parts and stuff to make your own? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted September 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 Where do you get all the parts and stuff to make your own? Couple different places I have used. Was using boards and parts from pixcontroller http://www.pixcontroller.com/, but the parts for this last build came from yeticam http://www.yeticam.com/HomeBrew_Parts.htm.

wtnhunt Posted September 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 I'm know from experience you'll get some great pics from it. I have a few other p41 setups, the pics from them are of very good quality. Most of the trail cam pics I have posted this year have been from one of the p41 setups.

Mirage Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 shhhweeeet ! nice how much you got wraped up in that camera??looks great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted September 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 can I ask why the yeti board this time william? The yeti board was only $40, came with the glass and connectors. Had the board the same week I ordered, pix has some issues with getting customers what they order in a decent time frame. Figured it was worth trying. So far very impressed with the yeti setup.

bigmoss Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Those P41 are the best, I was able to grab 2 more cams off of ebay in the last few weeks so I am building 2 more to add to the collection also ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was that you bidding against me:eek:. Hard to get p41's for a reasonable price, but I have managed to get a few reasonable. I have a total of 4 of them, they make great trail cams for sure, always watching for deals on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted September 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 how you like that Yeti board William??? Well Scott, I had to ask Mark a question about the dips, he answered me within an hour:cool:. Gotta be happy with that kind of response:D. So far while testing, the yeti in comparison to the pix boards seems to be a bit faster:cool:. Will have to see how it does with battery life and overall performance in the field.
