Camera Ratings
Detection Range: 10/20
The detection range probably is the weakest point of this model, and the detection range is limited to only about 50 feet.
Speed: 7/10
The photo trigger is acceptable for a camera at this price, but the video trigger is somewhat slow.
Accuracy: 6/10
We recommend using the low sensitivity setting option as the camera is inclined to false triggers.
Battery Life: 8/10
In photo mode, the batties will last for a very long time. However, in video mode, the battery life is just average.
Daylight Images: 7/10
The daytime images are hit-or-miss. Some are excellent, and others are grainy and out of focus for no apparent reason. We have also seen substantial picture quality differences between the units we have in the field.
Design: 14/20
Overall, the design and features of this camera are pretty good. The camera provides plenty of settings and is easy to set up. The buttons would benefit from better labeling as the button labels are almost invisible and hard to see in low light. The G500 can be secured to a tree with a python cable lock. It also provides the option to use a small padlock to secure the door. The included strap is the thinnest we have seen, and we always replace it with more secure straps from other manufacturers.
Verdict: 65/100

Bevelacquaj 5/10
I purchased the above camera and am very happy reading your reviews regarding it. Unfortunately I am not computer literate and cannot get it set up. Is there any video you can direct me to to accomplish this?
