2011 WGI W6X (Micro 6) thirty count red flash six MP digital photographic camera review

One time we had managed to get through the Micro viii review we had not expected to do more on this series of camera. The departure in emitter count and the caste of interpolation is the basic difference between the ii. This emitter count is supposed to reach fifty feet. The PIR sensitivity is plan adjustable in three settings of High, Med Low to compensate for temperature weather.

At that place are three resolutions with the 6 MP on top and downwardly to 2 on the bottom. Delay goes downwards to a prissy xv seconds and upward through three more settings to two minutes. Existence this is what they call micro it operates off 8 AA cells. Programming is done on a front end mounted LCD and that procedure is simple but the camera has to be off the tree to accomplish information technology because of the button location. The advertized battery life is a month to a month and a half. Total bottom door gasket closes up tight and is weather resistant.

Nosotros merely finished the 8 series of this photographic camera and we had problems with whiteout pictures during the transition periods. We have besides seen on the outdoor forums where other cameras in this same micro series are having like problems. We volition give this camera a off-white chance to show to us that it is going to practise well and not have that outcome.

The dark room and out side testing with new pre tested cells showed there seems to exist plenty of flash and the trigger seemed to come in but under 2 seconds. The half-dozen MP day pictures had good color and came in proficient and clear (some fuzz) and nevertheless not as skillful as the N2 camera tested earlier. It is pretty warm today but I did get continuous sensing of my movement out to about 25 feet judging from the light. Nosotros got a little spoiled by the results of the WGI N2 which had a pretty fast trigger and very good pictures. My unofficial look at the delay time seemed to testify that it is pretty close but we will look a footling closer to this.

WGI offers a standard 1 year limited warranty and their client service is fairly easy to get hold of through their 800 number. We have seen where someone was unhappy about having to alter out a couple of cameras and the expense of shipping. One of the other companies we reported on does not fifty-fifty take the 800 number and when you finally get concord of them and explain your problem they have a pat reply saying for XX amount of dollars we will ship you a brand new camera as an upgrade once you ship in your broken ane. And so far we have had good reports on this companys client service section. It is time to get this camera in line to become into the lab for the balance of the review. Information technology is correct now 7^th in line then it will all the same be a piffling while before be a hole open.

08-08-2011 update: Time allowed united states to crowd yet another photographic camera into the line today and being these were trouble gratis tests and all went smooth was a pleasant suspension after the storm nosotros lived through with the Leupold cameras. The trigger times were fast 1.09 for twenty-four hours and 1.53 for the with flash test. The sensing test at 15 seconds stretched out to 21 seconds which is probably OK afterwards living with the double treatment for the same test on the lilliputian Moultrie s. The day range/8plate colour pictures fell in line with the pictures we got from the N2 camera. This is maxim that they were sharp and clear with proficient detail. The nighttime with wink pictures were also good with the black and white particular and very picayune grey casting. Sensing reached out to fifty feet for the 85 degree evening. Flash also reached to the end of the range. If this camera holds together with out the reported whiteout issues seen on the outdoor forums we will have some other good camera.

08-13-2011 update: Offset trip out to become samples proved that #1 day pictures are great, #2 this cameras follows the 8X with the white out issue during the transition. Once fully switched the night pictures seem to be OK. This trouble will probably accept to exist handled with some blazon of firmware upgrade.

08-23-2011 update: The white out result also followed u.s. into the video mode. The color day and the blackness and white nighttime videos are good but a little jerky. The not standard encoding is giving some systems (players) fits when they endeavour to play these videos.
