How inferior are competitor
trail cameras using CMOS imaging sensors to CCD imaging sensors?
We now have the tools to
show you!
Trail Sense Engineering has
procured a common, high quality CMOS imaging sensor equipped with
a camera flash similar in size to what is used by the higher
quality CCD imaging sensor found in all Name Brand Digital
Cameras. Olympus utilizes the highest quality, most light
receptive CCD imaging sensors available on the market today.
As you can see, the left
hand series of pictures are very dark, even though the camera
flash was used at a range of approximately 10-feet to the "target"
deer.
By Comparison, the right
hand side of pictures, taken by the Olympus D425, the exact model
used within the TrailMAC, are very bright - in-fact the background
trees are even visible.
This is why the Trail
Cameras using a "built in" digital deer camera use such huge
flashes, but don't advertise flash distance, or advertise 1/2 the
flash distance of a TrailMAC. Larger flashes, make more
noise, consume more power, and are the direct result of cheaper
components.
We believe serious hunters,
once they understand the difference, don't mind paying a bit more
money - for such a tremendous advantage. |
