    Wanting to try a time lapse on a bean field. Don't really know what to set it for. Anyone have some tips to get me started.

    What is the purpose of the time laspe? Getting deer in one evening? Sunset , longer period of time? All are variables when adjusting the settings.

    I'm running Moultrie D55IRXT's and have mine set for first and last 4 hours of daylight, taking pictures every minute. I can get about 2 weeks on an 8gb card. I might dial it down to first and last 3 hours as that seems to show the majority of movement where I'm setup and I'm not always able to get to the cameras every 2 weeks.

    Max resolution with a good vantage point taking pictures every 3 mins the last few hours of light using time lapse and start stop on the coverts. I'll tweak the time a little though.
