Hi,
Short version: Can anyone recommend a good wireless NIGHT outdoor wildlife camera that has short enough range that I can put it on my front porch and it can focus on the floor, but also catch any intruders that move quickly? I see cameras that are short range (Ring type cameras) but they seem to be very slow to trigger, and other true wildlife cameras are for long-range (tens of yards) but have much faster trigger time, like Moultrie. I need both: close focus, and fast trigger time.
Long version: I have a new feral outside and an occasional other feral who may or may not still be lurking around. I am completely unsuccessful at getting close to either of them, though I have TNH (trapped, neutered and homed) others. I can't get near these cats. If they even see me, they are gone for a while. I am also realizing that there is a LOT more wildlife in my yard than I had thought. I see tracks of bigger animals but I'm not sure what they are... so I need a good nighttime camera that can see up close, but doesn't take forver to trigger in case there is a fast-moving animal out there. Maybe I need more than one camera...? I have never owned one, though I've dealt with feral cats in a fairly rural area for 20 years.
Thank you in advance.
