What happen when tech ignorant dad adjusts trail camera

Unread postby Mike » Mon Aug 05, 2013 5:28 pm

Our pics have been dark, so I told him to adjust the cam to use all the ir emitters, he said he couldn't find it even though there are only 2 switches on the camera, one is power and one adjust number of emitters. Instead he zoomed the camera in 4x, guess he got the shot though. Oh yeah, this was only out 1 day, he went back to adjust it after I emailed him a pic of where the switch was located. Guess it could be worse :)

Pretty sure he had a mainframe 14pt typical last year, I am a little excited :D Had the matching interior points.

Yeah, I gave up on having my Dad check the camera near his house. He is good at switching out cards, but for some reason he likes to shut it off when he leaves! :confusion-shrug:

That gave me a good laugh. The deer thought he was getting a nice close up picture and only got the top of his rack.

No disrespect meant to him or anyone, I was trying to say whatever the opposite of tech saavy is in the post title and thats what came out at the time. I appreciate him running cameras, the weekly card pull is usually one of the highlights of the week. His camera skills have definitely improved over the first years.

It is amazing that the younger you are the better you are at understanding and using technology. Mike don't misunderstand me I am not offended in any way, when it comes to technology I laugh at myself.
