2035923
tens of thousands and it works absolutely perfectly fine. I love the camera. not one problem with anything about the camera. I will update with the exact shutter click numbers asap. by the way, I have upgraded to a d7100 (the deal was too good to pass up) but my primary is still the d70s

My camera wasn't grey market. It was Nikon USA. Still having troubles with viewfinder focus. Camera is being repaired for the 3rd time. I have a feeling it still won't work properly.

I have not had the camera for that long, only about 4 months, but have not had the problem occur. Before buying this model, I did a lot of research about the problem and was confident enough that it had been fixed, to shell out almost two grand for the camera. The Ken Rockwell website is a good source of information on Nikon and Canon cameras. I relied heavily on Ken Rockwell's opinion. On another note, I absolutely love everything about this camera.

I put this camera to the test by attaching it to a tree near my driveway. It was not reliable, as it did not take pictures when I knew something passed in front of it. I did get some pictures, but there were times when it did not take a picture and it should have or movement triggered the camera but it snapped the shot too late and I got an empty picture. I ended up sending the camera back. I did some research and found lots of good information here. http://www.trailcampro.com/ I ended up buying UM562. This camera will also send emails like the HCO SG580, but it is much more reliable. I put it to the same test and I am very pleased. I keeping the UM562 made by Uway.

Unfortunately I'm having the same issue. It continually records but it breaks as a 2 minutes video clips. I just got this cam not too long ago so I will have to figure out how to fix this problem and I'll let you know.

Well first off- you will have to be sure your camera is set to the "remote" setting. Most digital DSLR's will have a shutter release option in the menu and you must select the remote option first... and then it only work's one time! If yo want to do multiple exposures you will have to set it in the menu every time. Then second you will just have to bite the bullet and buy a new battery to see if it works then. Maybe go buy the battery at a camera store and then have the guy there test it. Good luck. I bought one for my Nikon D5100 and it works fine.

I have had no issues with the Leica electronic viewfinder. My most intensive use of the camera was taking 1470 photos on a two week trip to China. My only problem was the shutter. It is easy to get multiple shots if one's finger lingers on the shutter switch. I am very pleased with the camera. Raymond Powell

Daniel, Shutter actuations (not activations) is not a critical issue when it comes to professional styled cameras. The D300 is rated for 150K before it might fail. Might is the operative word. Most of these types of cameras go well beyond their stated actuations. Follow this link to get an answer as to how it's done. http://www.ehow.com/how_7428841_total-actuations-nikon-d300.html . . . . bgs. .

I would not waste one minute or even one penny on the crap. Yes, it is capable to make ONE single triggered recording if you do everything EXACTLY in the correct order. No, it will not make MULTIPLE triggered recordings. Most likely you get a single recording with sound of NOTHING USEFUL; other than that it does everything advertised. There are plenty of cameras, as well as internet cameras that will even send you an e-mail with the trigger photograph when it has been triggerd, a few more dollars, $150.00-$200.00 but far more useful then these novelties that are not worth the time or trouble to return, (which is what the seller is banking on).

The camera turns on, and you view "real time" just like looking through the viewfinder. The camera stays on for a total of 10 seconds or so. After about 5 seconds, you see the camera "click" as it records a single image of what the camera is looking at. Afterward, I can scroll back through the any/all the images that have been captured recently. It works a lot like a standard digital camera.

I'm sorry, I don't remember for certain how mine worked...or didn't work. I sent it back after about an hour of trying to get it to even be recognized by my computer there was very little (if anything) that DID work the way it was supposed to. I suggest you do the same. Return it and remember...most of the time...you get what you pay for. I ended up buying a very nice camera I'm pleased with on ebay for something like $20-$30. Good luck.

Happy Holly Days!

I just tried it out. The camera will take rapid photos of a moving object by just the touch of a button or two.

I'm surprised you got video! the one I bought won't do anything! Well it turns on but nothing else. I would look for a better cam.

I do not know exactly how long it takes to trigger the camera but it has been acceptable for my use (still photo's at a mineral lick). The trigger intervals can be set at 20 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes or 10 minutes. CAUTION: I purchased my camera about 4 month ago and it worked great for 5 weeks before it failed. I returned it to Wildview, they "repaired" it and sent it back to me approximately 3 weeks later. I put it back out and it worked fine for about 4 weeks before it failed again.
