My camera is not being triggered unless moving object is within 5 feet or so. Any ideas?

Make sure that the sensitivity is set to normal and maybe try adjusting the angle, for the best detection you want the subject in the middle of the frame top to bottom.

Please post a picture or two from the camera so we can see the set. Daytime photos are best.

I would tilt both of those cameras up, I think that will make a big difference. Is the sensitivity set to normal?

I’ll try tilting it up. Yes it’s set to normal. If I walk by it where that deer is it won’t take a picture of me 9 times out of ten right now.

Yes, where that deer is is above the best detection area.

There’s a lot of vegetation in the way in the detection zone. That can’t be helping things but you may not have any options for removing it.
