    Too Dark? Bushnell 576 Updated

    I've been testing a 576 watching the driveway in video mode and all the video appears to be really dark to me. It was cloudy when I got this video but at 12:15pm I don't think it should be this dark. Whats your opinion?

    I have a Bushnell and I've always thought the pics/vids were a little darker than normal. That video didn't seem like it was exceptionally dark to me, especially since it was cloudy.

    Thanks. It may be my laptop monitor that makes it look dark.

    Here's a sunny day video I got today and really not much,if any, better than I got when it was cloudy. The only difference I saw was that the cam didn't auto expose at the beginning of the vid on the cloudy day. Notice when the video first starts that the brightness is there and you can actually see the green shrubs and trees but soon after the cam auto exposes and it gets dark to the point you can't see any color or at least I can't. Maybe I'm being too picky but I sure don't remember my 466's having those dark vids.

    I will have to try the 576 my nephew has on video and see if they are dark. Well he gave it to me as he got it for Christmas and has no interest in trail cams (17 year old).

    I am using the cam for coon duty in my barn but havent had it in the woods.
