    So I've had a camera stolen already, then I had a cam out for three weeks to find out I have 3000+ pics of a leaf that grew in front of the lens then the cam that I got a lot of pics on something is wrong with the color in the day shots everything looks pinkish orange. Night pics were fine though. It sucks because I got a pic of a fawn nursing and another with just the fawn it would have been nice to have them turn out good

    Rough luck, for sure. Stuck IR filter?

    I have had cams stolen. Its one reason I like lower priced cams. I can afford expensive cams really, but I really dislike that feeling when they are stolen. A cheaper cam disappears, I don't fret as much. Not sure if its the attachment to the money or the quality cam itself. But it irks me.

    At least on that cam brand the customer service should be painless. That's a huge plus.

    Looks like a stuck filter, you should be able to tap the cam lightly on the side and should be good to go.

    Even though the fawn pic is red, I still think it is pretty cool.

    Well tapping on the camera didn't seem to help at all and I really don't want to bang on it any harder than I have already so I think I may need to send it in to get fixed.
