wtnhunt Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 How good is the coverage area you guys are getting. Set ours up yesterday and when I tested, was getting me crawling as far out as about 20 feet. It was only the area directly in front of the cam that it was picking me up in though, it would not detect my movement out to the sides. The distance is where it was set at the factory and that is turned all the way up. The stealth cam seemed to pick up considerably more on the sides. Just wondering if this is normal of the leaf river to only pick up pretty much directly in front of the camera? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogdoc Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 Re: Leaf river sensor William--I was reading the instructions and it does state the passive infrared heat sensor is designed to detect moving infrered heat in a long narrow zone directly in front of the unit. maybe this prevents shots of just the head or butt shots--which I do get a lot of with the stealth cam. I finally got mine out in the field this weekend--will check it next weekend. todd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimT Posted January 19, 2005 Report Share Posted January 19, 2005 Re: Leaf river sensor Todd is right on with this. No head or butt shots with that cam. A great selling point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
