Both cameras now received and set up for the first time yesterday last night - the Kings in the front yard and the Ebay on the front porch where the possum tries to get in.
The ebay camera was a surprise - seemed to work well, particularly given its low price.
Day and night - all seems to work OK

The Kings "proper" trail camera was a disappointment.

So it would seem that while the Kings is activated by movement as it should, the infrared illumination is not working as evidenced by the night pic just picking up lights in th distance and not illuminating the area in front. Also the lens is fogged up in the cool of early morning - the pic was at 6.00 but did clear by 8.00.
So the ebay camera works really well for its price and the Kings looks as if it is faulty.
I will get onto the 4wd SuperCentre today to return it but suspect there will be the usual argument about who pays for the return postage - they are supposed to but it is always argued.
