More on High Resolution Security Cameras

If you read my previous article on high resolution security cameras and are interested in more options, you may want to look at "Trail Cameras". These devices are designed for hunters, something which I am not into at all, but hunting does (rather symbolically) describe what I was trying to accomplish.

These cameras are designed from the ground up to be:

• Independent (no connections needed)
• Provide high resolution photographs
• Triggered by motion

As far as the manufacturers of these cameras are concerned, their customers consist of people who get excited by images of roaming "bucks" and other wildlife that may happen to pass by their trail camera. I'm not yet sure what hunters intend to do with these photographs, but some of the images captured by these trail cameras are very cool. I won't pretend to understand the market at all, but I do understand what these devices are intended to do and it fits the application of "high resolution security" perfectly.

There are several manufacturers of these cameras (among quite a few):

I am currently playing with one made by Moultrie and have found it to be fairly reliable. The addition of an "Eye-Fi" card makes it so that the captured images can be automatically transferred to a either an online destination of your choice such as a web-based photo sharing service or your PC. I'll be sure to update with more information soon.
