Wildlife Camera: Keep an eye on your ground even when you are away

Wildlife Camera: Know what is happening on your ground

With a wildlife camera you find out which game is using your bait site, salt lick or run, and at what time of day. That saves pointless outings and helps you judge your stock more accurately. Here you will find reliable LTE cameras from Spypoint and Zeiss that send pictures straight to your phone, along with solar panels, batteries, metal housings, antennas and mounts.

Pictures straight to your smartphone

Modern cellular cameras send every photo via an app, so you no longer have to drive out to the camera to swap the card. The Zeiss Secacam range runs from the Secacam 1 to the Secacam 7, some with a 100 degree wide angle for a broad field of view. With the FLEX series and the FORCE models, Spypoint offers cameras with high resolution, 4K video and versions with a no glow flash that is barely visible at night. Twin packs and four packs are handy if you want to watch several spots at once.

Power, protection and mounting

With a solar panel or a lithium battery, your camera runs for a long time without changing batteries. Metal housings from Spypoint and Zeiss protect against theft and curious animals, and a combination lock secures the camera to the tree as well. A tree strap, mounting screw and Vari mount help you find the right angle. Where the signal is weak, an external antenna improves reception. Please note that data protection rules apply to wildlife cameras, and depending on the country hunting regulations too, especially near paths.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need my own SIM card for an LTE wildlife camera?
Many Spypoint and Zeiss models already come with a SIM card or run on a data plan from the manufacturer via the app. Before buying, check how the model connects and which plan suits the way you use it. A quick signal test with your phone at the chosen spot is well worth doing.

Am I allowed to put up a wildlife camera in the woods?
The rules are not the same everywhere. Data protection requirements apply above all if paths, walkers or neighbouring properties could appear in the picture. Point the camera so that it only covers your spot, and find out about the rules in your country.

How do I stop branches and grass setting off the camera?
Cut back twigs and tall stems in the detection zone, as movement in the wind often triggers the camera. Avoid pointing it straight into the sun and face it northwards if you can. A suitable sensitivity setting also cuts down on empty pictures.
