Motion pictures not working
so looking at the photos below i'm needing some input. i have set my camera to time lapse due to not catching much for pictures with my camera. If you look at the pictures below you will see the time that they were taken. also you will notice the one that says it was a motion pic. how is it that the only motion picture taken when the deer was there for 15 min.
I have a GC-USCb camera.The firmware is up to date the sensitivity is on normal, have a class 10 card in, trigger was set to 0. In start stop mode i have it set to trigger interval 4 min. and timelapse is set to 4 min.
Any welcome is much appreciated!

First it's hard for a camera to sense an animal walking directly towards or away from the camera. Second, remember that the camera isn't going to do anything while it's sending a picture so if the camera takes the time lapse photo and it takes a minute to send even if the deer is jumping around it's not going to take another picture. The deer also needs to move to get the camera to trigger as well, if it's basically standing in the same spot eating that might not be enough movement to trigger the camera. Using the start stop times be aware that you need to have both sets of start stop times set to incorporate all 24 hours of the day. Anything outside of those start stop times and the camera is basically off. If I were you I would lower the camera where you have it mounted and angle it up a little bit, I think it will help with the detection and also help the flash carry out farther. The picture is also showing P3, your batteries are getting low and that's not going to help detection either.
