Streak Type: Low Glow IR (Reconyx marks this no gleam yet we can see an exceptionally black out noticeable shine)

Day picture seems indistinguishable to past Hyperfire models. They have practical shading and great lucidity in an assortment of field conditions. We have observed the photos to be extremely reliable and have even delivered great "dusk" photographs now and again of the morning and night when different cameras would have changed to IR (dark/white) mode. This is one of the best Deer camera.

Night pictures are clear, offer best of-class streak go, have fantastic complexity, and stop movement and any camera we've seen. By and large, these are the best low gleam IR pictures available.

Daytime video quality is baffling when contrasted with Ultrafire models. At the point when Reconyx first presented the XR6 numerous TV demonstrates quickly started joining film with no noticeable loss of value. This won't be conceivable with daytime video from the HF2. The casing rate is only 20 outlines for every second and recordings can be jerky and in some cases hard to watch. The determination is low and the clearness simply isn't what we were anticipating. Be that as it may, night video quality is great with solid brightening and difference. The camera likewise completes an incredible activity of not overexposing close questions.

Imagine a scenario in which you buy from us and aren't content with the picture quality.

Megapixel Ratings:

Before, numerous individuals get mistook for the megapixel rating trail camera producers publicize. Organizations blow up the mpxl rating to pull in eyes to their items. They do this through addition, which carefully adds megapixels to a photograph without really enhancing the photo.

Be that as it may, the Hyperfire 2 isn't interjected. This is a genuine 3 mpxl camera. We wish each organization would publicize their local determination and not fall into making up advertising traps.

• Battery Life: 90/100
• Picture and Video Resting Power (on): 0.65 mW
• Picture Daytime/Nighttime Power Consumption: 1.2 Ws | 1.2 Ws
• Video Daytime/Nighttime Power Consumption: 22.6 Ws | 108.2 Ws

The proficiency in picture mode is not at all like anything we have tried previously. It is, by a long shot, the most productive picture battery life we have ever tried. Video battery life isn't exactly that great, yet it is still great. If you don't mind take note of, our general battery rating takes the heaviness of both picture and video life and midpoints them together.

Picture Mode

In the event that this camera were to take 35-day and 35-night pictures at regular intervals, the Hyperfire 2 would most recent 38.6 months in the field on an arrangement of 12 AA Lithium Batteries. Indeed, you read that accurately - 38+ months. Our jaws dropped as well.

Video Mode

In the event that this camera were to take 15-day and 15-night recordings (10-second recordings) at regular intervals, it would most recent 2.7 months in the field on an arrangement of lithium batteries. This is great video life.

• Video Trigger and Recovery Speed: 0.24 s. /4.6 s.

Identifying critters shouldn't be an issue for the Hyperfire 2. Trigger speed in the two modes is great and recuperation times are great too.

The Hyperfire 2 distinguished out to 80 ft., making it a better than expected discovery go. In general, the discovery circuit is extraordinary.

Case Design

The Hyperfire 2 has a genuinely standard case outline. It feels strong and well-fabricated. The lock is larger than usual and simple to control. The batteries slide in significantly less demanding than on the Reconyx Ultrafire cameras and the SD card is anything but difficult to embed too. The python bolt section is on the front of the camera, which means the link will bolt within the camera and additionally the camera to the tree.

We were frustrated that the Hyperfire 2 just has one strung embed (on the base) rather than having two like the old cameras. This constrains the adaptability of a tripod or Slate River Mount. Likewise, the camera has a straightforward LCD screen for settings however does not have the inside watcher that numerous cameras come furnished with now.

Point of fact, the case plan on the Hyperfire 2 is extremely strong however not weighty. We do anticipate that this camera will have the capacity to work down to - 20° Fahrenheit, so if that is a worry, the case configuration is as yet better than Chinese-made cameras. Nonetheless, when spending this measure of cash, it would be extremely decent to have the fancy odds and ends that we see on different cameras (inner watcher and numerous 1/4" x 20 embeds).

Camera Setup

It's simple, straightforward, and arms in a moment or two. The Hyperfire 2 takes into consideration the camera to just be outfitted amid light, evening time, or day/night; which is a decent update from the old Hyperfire cameras. Another redesign is the capacity to utilize SD cards up to 512 Gigs.

With a 16 Gig SD card and the camera taking 3 mpxl photographs, the Hyperfire 2 could store 25,641 pictures on the SD card.

With a 16 Gig SD card and the camera taking 1280x720 recordings, the Hyperfire 2 could store 747 10-second recordings. These numbers can fluctuate somewhat yet this gives you a smart thought of capacity thoughts.

From this information, you can extrapolate out capacity limits of various measured SD cards and distinctive determination settings. We give you a 16 Gig SD card with the buy of this camera through us. On the off chance that you require extra or bigger SD cards, you can shop all SD card choices here.
