    Default Setting up a Cam?

    Got any tips for a first time trail camera user?
    Also Just got the cheap moultrie 100, but would you recommend using a memery card for it or just the camera itself?

    Yes, buy 2 memory cards so you can switch them out.

    Most defintely use memory cards. And like Finn said get 2 of them so you can swap cards.

    It looks like you're going to get a memory card or two. I would highly recommend a memory card reader if you don't already have one. They are so much faster and more convenient than hooking up the whole cam to the computer.

    Would also suggest using two cards and a reader. Nice to be able to leave the cam out. Have had pretty good results with cams setup at mineral sites, but deer are really not using the minerals too much now.
