My trail cam is only taking pics in black and white. The spot that I have it setup does not get much sun, but I don't think all the pics should be black and white. Anyone else have this problem?

 

[blackeyes]

no not with mine. does it have the self-diagnostic test?

If you still cant figure out whats wrong, moultrie has excellent customer service, just give them a call and they will prob just ask you to send it in.

What he said, only night pics should be B/W... Call them, I sent one back last year and they sent me back a new one...[up]

not enough sun light.

I have a few of the I40s. They need a certain level of sunlight to operate in color.
I thought I had a problem with one of mine last year but after I moved it into an area with more light I got the color pics.
I also think that some are a bit more sensitive about the light than others. That's just a guess though.

def call moultrie..if it was bought in the last 2 years, tell them u are sending it back for repair..I did the same thing about 2 weeks ago and they sent me a brand new camera...im not sure if you are having problems with yours or not since i dont know about the IR cams since i have flash...but it makes sense if it is deep woods they would be more black and white [confusedagain]

but like i said, if there is osmething wrong and it was purchased within the last 2 years you have nothing to worry about they have an outstanding customer service center.

You should've bought a Stealth Cam.

reeltight wasn't asked for trailcam suggestions or reviews. He is having a problem with a particular camera that he has and was asking for assistance/suggestions. Can one simply stick to a topic and offer constructive assistance/help?

i have 4 i40s they do that in the summer when the canopy is full as the leaves drop they will be color. basically not enough ambiet light

Thanks for the info guys. It must be all the I-40's. Even in the winter with no leaves I still got very few color shots. It sounds like they need direct sun to take shots in color. I'm still going to give them a call.
