Exactly--- both cams are 2.8mm lenses... That deer was right next to my mailbox-- 2 feet away. Some punk kid could have put some fireworks in that thing, & the b&w cam would not have caught it. I redrew all my trigger zones and rules today, and I just adjusted for a little more brightness in the image. I hope that doesn't jack up my motion quality-- shouldn't at 1/100 shutter speed. We will find out.Catching animals is nice but make sure you can catch/trigger someone in a hoodie successfully. After all, these are surveillance cameras, I would rather miss the deer but capture a prowler
Should walk out there your self to make your adjustments. I did it that way at my place. I even parked my car out there to get my license plate PTZ camera setup in the right location.Exactly--- both cams are 2.8mm lenses... That deer was right next to my mailbox-- 2 feet away.

BTW-- I initially put cams in to capture neighborhood deer as much as anything else! Love seeing those ghosts of the night....as long as they stay out of my garden.
It probably has a fawn or twins nearby.... it will chase away bucks. I'm pretty sure the bucks are in bachelor groups hanging out together drinking beer and playing video games.
