Brinno GardenWatchCam with Flash Drive, Item GWCTLC130A

The GardenWatchCam is an easy-to-use 1.3 megapixel time lapse camera. Photos are stored as JPEG images for easy playback as a movie file on computer. GardenWatchCam uses a high quality lens to target your chosen gardening area, or a single bloom. GardenWatchCam is designed to take photos at predetermined time settings chosen by the user. There are 7 different time setting options. The first 6 settings are chosen by opening the camera and turning the switch to the desired time (1 minute, 5 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, 24 hours). The seventh (custom) setting is set by inserting the included 2GB USB flash drive into GardenWatchCam, which downloads Brinno software onto the drive. You then insert the USB drive into your computer and follow the directions on screen to customize any time setting at which you want to have GardenWatchCam take photos. GardenWatchCam has a lens that adjusts from 20 inches for close ups (like a flower blooming) to infinity. GardenWatchCam fastens securely into the top of a custom designed flexible mounting stake for insertion into the ground, or use any camera tripod. It "sleeps" between photos, thereby enabling remarkably long battery life. One set of 4 AA batteries (included) will last up to 6 months. Easy to set up and use, the camera flips open, a USB flash drive is inserted, time lapse setting chosen, camera switched on, closed and located. GardenWatchCam then works silently for months. Anything that moves within the field of view is perfect for GardenWatchCam. Watch your house being built, wasps, spiders or a bird building a nest. Capture the morning glory in all its glory or a clematis climbing a trellis...easy, glorious photos of your garden from first sprout to hard freeze. Every moment can be enjoyed and shared year round. Includes a Windows program for playback, or you can use any AVI video player or JPEG picture display application.
