TroutHunter 39 Report post Posted November 12, 2015 So I recently purchased a trail cam/SD card reader combo pack from Sportsman's Guide. I picked it up from Ryden's earlier in the week and am overall happy with what I bought. SD card reader is the main reason I bought the combo pack, trail cam was just a bonus. SD reader is easy to use, shows great images on the screen, only downfall is the buttons make a subtle clicking sound when pressed... hopefully it won't spook any deer. Trail cam works as needed. Daytime picture quality is good, nighttime photos are good too, but some are a bit blurry. I suppose you get what you pay for... If anyone is looking for an SD card reader, I feel this is a good one, with a bonus trail cam. http://www.sportsmansguide.com/product/index/wildgame-innovations-cloak-camera-and-viewer-package?a=1848916 What are you guys using in the field, if anything, to check pics?? I have been using my laptop but am always too anxious to wait to get home to check them. Cheers,Adam Quote ** People often ask me why I like hunting and fishing so much...

Nnev 70 Report post Posted November 12, 2015 I'm wayyyy too anxious to wait till i get home! I usually carry and extra card, switch cards then head to the blind. I plug this into my phone and kill some time. http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=9738356&CatId=942 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think I have 5 in total, 3 in the field and 2 spares to switch out when i check cams/put out feed... I thought about one of the readers that plug into your phone, but I'm rocking the old iPhone 4 after my samsung took a swim earlier in the fall... screen is kinda small compared to what Im used to with the larger Samsung haha.

Well I have another suggestion then. Samsung s5 Active. After I my first droid took a drink and busted up 2 iphone screens I bought this and it's made it past 1 fishing season and almost a full hunting season. Water proof, shock proof... I don't even use a case and it's holding up awesome. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Beamer Report post Posted November 13, 2015 I use my camera, switch out cards while going in and view them while in the stand, just for entertainment Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pbear 24 Report post Posted November 13, 2015 I bought a unit that plugs into the iPad. It was about $40 at staples. It will not work with my iPhone unfortunately so I have to borrow my kids iPad mini whenever I want to check it out. I think it's called a lightning adapter Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
