5.0 Megapixel Infrared Digital Motion-detection Camera
National Geographic photographer Michael Nichols uses specialized remote-camera systems to obtain images of rarely seen wildlife behavior. Triggered by heat and movement, our simplified all-weather cameras capture multiple images of backyard wildlife.
Our 5 megapixel infrared version provides clearer nighttime images without use of a flash, so nocturnal animals aren’t startled. Equipped with a 50-degree wide-angle lens, infrared emitter, test modes, and 24 hour operation. Features a 1- to 20-minute pause time between activations, minimum focus of 5 feet, AVI video capability, time and date stamp, moon phase stamp, built-in 32MB memory, and an SD card slot for expanded memory.
Please note: The infrared version of our motion-detection camera utilizes night vision. The nighttime images are black and white and daytime images are color. If you would like to capture color 5MP nighttime images using a flash, we recommend that you consider the 5.0 Megapixel Digital Motion-detection Camera.
