Is the camera motion activated?

Yes, it is motion activated. You can choose the mottion sensitivity from low, normal, and high.
1030759
Yes. I checked out the reviews at trailcampro.com before I purchased mine last fall. I like its features and found it to be everything that I was looking for. I didn't have a single blurry photo all season.
1030760
yes it is,but unless you are going to have an external power supply do yourself a favor and do not buy it. Batteries do not last .
1030761
Yes, it is motion activated. It can also be set to take pics at certain times in the day.
1030762
Yes and has a good range although if it is foggy out it will still pick up movement just is not clear sometimes on what made it take a picture

Yes, the camera is motion activated. I have been pleased with the performance of the Browning camera. I have been using it for a season in the south -FL so no cold weather.

Isabel- No, it's not motion activated. It stays on when it gets dark and goes out when light again.

This is a motion activated camera, it only works when activated by motion..... You can take pictures with it in your hand by pressing the right button but is very difficult to aim that way.

Not sure. Our camera is motion sensitive and used when we are away so we are not doing much recording (we hope).

its a feature that is controlled by your security dvr, not the camera. so yes on my stem, it will motion detect/record.

Yes. There is a motion activation setting. Works fairly well. There is also a setting that allows it to "roll over" when the card is full and record over the oldest files.

Yes...it's motion activated...but you can also set it for intervals...As I understand it, you can set it for intervals and it will still pick up motion...

It does send an alert when there is motion but doesn't automatically start recording...unless I have NO CLUE. I have to manually go online to hit record. I would like these cameras a lot better if they recorded all the time...otherwise they are great!

No, the system gives no audible or visual cue that it is recording. Motion detection is pretty sensitive, even at the low setting. Snowflakes blowing by the camera will easily trigger a recording.

It can do both. I use it mainly in the motion activated mode. But, you can set it up as a plot camera where it'll shoot so many seconds of video each day at a specified time. I own two of these and they've been great cameras for the money.

Yes it's fully automatic. It just doesn't "report" its presence to the body (so the camera will indeed try to AF).

Motion detection works by comparing the current frame to the previous frame. In other words, it is an image subtraction. If enough pixels show a big enough change in RGB values, the camera's algorithm considers it be motion. The camera's built in algorithm is OK but rather simplistic. Software such as Blue Iris for PCs and Evocam for Macs have more sophisticated motion detection algorithms.

Yes. Motion can be enabled or disabled on a per camera basis. Area of motion detected is also easily adjusted per camera. For instance, you need to exclude a bush that blows in the breeze - you simply mark boxes within a grid to disable detection. Similarly, recording is also set on a per camera basis. Time restraint recording also per camera. It's a nice system! I've had mine on 24/7 for 2 years with no problems. The box says they're good to 10 degrees, mine had no problems with -25 temps last week.

Easiest way is to push the camera down which will turn the motion off. I only use the camera for Skype, however not on a regular basis. I don't miss the motion functionality at all.

There were no patteries. It was motion activated as far as I could tell. I returned my product for that reason.

No, I have not seen where there is a setting for this feature. The screen will light up and show all cameras if motion is detected. That is beneficial if you have the monitor near you.

No it does not. Its recorded automatically to your hard drive if motion is detected.
