I have a trail camera that hadn''t been out for a couple of years. Batteries were corroded and dead as could be. Put in new batteries and an SD card and hung it on a tree. Pulled the card and the date and time on every picture was accurate. What the heck? Are trail cameras connected to a satellite? There's no need to be. ???


Life ain't supposed to be easy.

Do you guys have to reset the clock and date when you swap batteries out?

My cams are all cell phone linked, so i never set the time.

No idea how one with dead batteries would keep the time tho.

I don't have to set time and date or settings unless the batteries are pulled for the winter.
