Camera Ratings
Detection Range: 12/20
The detection range of the updated P60 model is better than previous Meidase cameras but still only about 50-60 feet.

Speed: 6/10
The video trigger is only average, and faster animals are often about to exit the picture before the camera start recording.

Accuracy: 9/10
The accuracy of this inexpensive unit is pretty impressive. When the sensitivity option is set to Low, we have seen a minimal number of false triggers on extremely windy days. However, when the detection sensitivity option is set to Medium or High, the number of false triggers would increase considerably.

Battery Life: 8/10
Especially in picture mode, the Meidase and GardePro cameras have pretty good battery life if you can avoid false triggers. The P60 is also performing well thus far. However, the battery life will decrease considerably when the side detection sensors are enabled. While not recommended by the manufacturer, we have successfully used rechargeable batteries during the warmer months. We do not recommend using rechargeable or even alkaline batteries in the winter.
Daylight Images: 9/10
Daytime images are bright and sharp but would benefit from a slightly more color saturation. Overall, especially considering the low price, the daytime images are outstanding.

Lowlight Images: 8/10
Lowlight images are a little more grainy but still acceptable. Also, compared to previous versions, the P60 is switching to the nighttime B&W monochrome mode sooner. That change has improved the image quality during dusk and down.

Night Images: 7/10
The P60 is equipped with an invisible infrared illumination, and as with most trail cameras, nighttime images are black & white. The night images are not too grainy, but the flash is somewhat centered, resulting in uneven illumination.

I gave this rating due to the fact I had 5 fail at one time. Warranty department only sent 1 replacement. Have to keep on them for the other replacements. Still waiting on 2 more replacement cameras since I placed my claim in October.

FOR THE MONEY; one of the best Game Cameras that I have ever owned. I currently have ~15 and this on is a 9.9! Enough said, buy it!
