Camera sensitivity and time lapse

I frequently get shots of nothing. I think animals are triggering the camera but it is slow to fire. I tried a test with it and if I was walking away it would capture me but if I was walking toward it wouldn’t capture me. I’ve moved the camera to several different locations including ones sheltered from wind and sun to reduce false triggers. If I get any images it is generally something receding versus approaching. The time lapse is set to 0 and I changed the sensitivity to high but it didn’t seem to make any difference. Anyone have any ideas?

  I think you mean trigger interval of 0 rather than time lapse. That setting is the quiet time between when the camera finishes sending and when it takes the next pic.

  What model camera (GC-what?)

  can you post a picture from your set? You mention approaching and receding. Is your camera set so that animals are not right on it and coming from an angle rather than nearly straight towards it?

  My camera model is GC-V4Gb. I also sent a couple pictures last week taken by the camera in a reply to your email to show the setup.

  What email address did you use? You can actually post pics here. You might want to do that. I just added this picture to test. Posting a picture is easy.
