Question: how do you set date and time. lost my instructions
Document: The shutter speed was so slow the picture was blurry. If I hadn't known who it was, I wouldn't have been able to tell from the picture.There is a display on the back that you use to set the date. Once operating, it displays how many pictures it took along with a battery indicator and the word "Hi". The instructions are ridiculous but I was able to figure out how to set the date/time. What I can't do is alter anything else.
Hard to set date/time and not very sensitive.It is also a pain to get the pictures out of it. With the sd card or with wire.
This unit takes reasonable pictures but it will not allow me to set the date and time.If you need pics without a timeline it would be a good buy.
With a 2GB memory card, I should get about 25,000 pictures based on the instructions. Unfortunately, that's less than 3 days. I want to set this up and let it take the random picture over a matter of weeks. Who has time to go through 24,990 pictures of nothing to find the 10 pictures of that deer eating my tomato plants?Mostly worthless, I'm afraid.
I so much wanted this to work. I put the batteries in and set the date/time. I then placed it on a table facing my kitchen to test it out. After about 10 minutes, I hooked it up to a computer. There were 290 pictures on it!! Most were of NOTHING. I used a program to quickly step through the pictures and there wasn't even a flicker of difference from one to the next on about 285 of the pictures.
I purchased this to use in an empty rental property. It is very difficult to set the time and date. In the guide it says after you turn it on it will automatically start taking pictures in 3 minutes. It does not do this every time and there is no indicator to tell you that it is working. When it does works the pictures are good, you just never know when it is actually taking them. It is a good idea, but the product leaves a lot to be desired.
the description was over rated. once recd. needs direct sight for clear photos, hard to program date / time/ year did not work for me as advertised.
the camera works very good. not a real high quailty picture, but, for the price, it is good quality. i put in a set of eveready gold batteries, and they are lasting a long time. i only use it when i am away from home for more than one day. it will take a lot of pics when there is movement, so a few of the pics will be very clear, incase i need to use them for identication.
Camera is always on. One that comes on when needed would have been better. The batteries burn out quickly and when they do you lose the date and time stamp, so an a/c adapter seem essential.It has built in memory, but it doesn't keep the time stamp.Take out the batteries and you have to reset the time and date. The camera is white. It would be less visible if it was a dark color.
I got mine and it has worked fine so far. The property I am watching is in the country ad isolated. The first time I left it there, it's batteries ran out before I got back to download the pictures. It appeared someone had been around but because the batteries failed, I didn't get any pictures. I have always used a 2GB SD card that to make sure I don't loose any pictures. It would have been nice to have a suggested life of the batteries included in the instructions.
Answer: Per instruction sheet: 1) Press and hold down the ON/OFF button for 3 seconds, until screen turns on. 2) Press and hold MODE button until dAt appears on the screen then press SET button. 3) Press ON/OFF button to scroll.  Once you've set the desired number press SET button to save. FORMAT: 1XX = Year (Example for 2009, it should read 109); 2XX = Month (Example for July, it should read 207); 3XX = Day (Example for July ll, it should read 311); 4XX = Hour (Military Setting - Example for 12:00 pm, it should read 412 and for 1:00 pm, it should read 413); 5XX = Minutes (Example for 12:30, it should read 530).  Note: Upon turning ON, the device will warm up for about 3 minutes and will immediately start taking photos.  Note: The date and time must be set each time the unit is reset [or loses power].
