    Hey guys, new to this trail cam stuff. I put up a "Stealth cam" camera. Great pics the only problem is that i did'nt realize that overhanging leaves would set it off. Great lookn pics of corn. Can you set the sensitivity on them or do i need to go in and lop everything that could move? I did the grass area infront, but didn't think the over hang would cause. Pretty funny stuff. I got stoked seeing the card was "full". raced home to find out the damn thing took pics every minute for a day & half. nothing came by at all. you could see the limbs moving from set to set of pics. Also, the camera has burst mode up to 9 pics at a time. What do you recommend to set it at. It reset to take pics every minute after. Should I set to longer period between pics? help a brother out here thanks. Anyone wanna buy some real purty pictures of the country?

    I clear as much out as I can to avoid errant pics, also I don't have the burst mode option, but mine is set at 30 secs.....and have had pretty good luck that way. Good luck, cameras are addictive!
