Browning Strike Force Full HD Review
This little camera is incredibly fast, has great battery life, and easy to use. Picture quality is solid, daytime video is grainy, but night video impressed us. Overall, the price makes this package an attractive buy. - TCP Staff

Trail Camera Review
Pros
- Great night videos
- Fantastic battery life (22+ months)
- Extremely fast detection circuit
- User-friendly, easy to set up
Cons
- Grainy day videos
- Inaccurate temperature readings
Photo resolution: 22 mpxl (interpolated)
Video resolution: 1280x720 w/ audio (.avi files)
Flash Type: Red Glow IR
Day and night pictures are solid and have the typical Browning trail camera theme. Good enough clarity, solid color, and consistent. The Full HD doesn't have high-end picture quality but it is plenty good enough for wildlife scouting.
Daytime video quality is noticeably grainy, however, night video is impressive. Overall, video quality is a bit of a mixed bag.
What if you purchase from us and aren't happy with the image quality?
This is a common question and we have a very simple solution. Call, email, or chat with us and we can take a look at the images and offer suggestions or immediately tell if something is wrong with the camera. If so, we will warranty the camera for you (with the free 2-Year warranty you receive from us) or return the camera for a full refund (within 90 days of purchase). You have control of the process, remember, we work for you.
Megapixel Ratings:
In the past, many people get confused with the megapixel rating trail camera manufacturers advertise. Companies inflate the mpxl rating to attract eyes to their products. They do this through interpolation, which digitally adds megapixels to a photo without actually improving the picture.
The best way to judge picture quality is to look at actual pictures. You will notice this the most when you zoom in on a full-size image that a camera has taken. The details of the photo will appear hazy or even digitized. This is normal, and to be expected.

Case Design
Simplicity is the name of the game for the Strike Force Full HD. It is housed under a tried and trued case design that has been around for quite a few years now. Everything works as you would expect and we have had great luck with this particular design. This is an extremely small camera, making it easy to conceal.
Camera Setup
There is a simple LCD screen for programming. You will find all the normal options and it is very user-friendly. All the buttons are positive and work well, the LCD screen lights up when hitting a button - making it easier to read.
Durability
Browning cameras have inaccurate temperature readings.

FAQ's: Trail Camera
Q: Will this trail camera trigger on small animals (birds, rodents, etc.)?
A: Trail cameras detect on a combination of heat and movement, so, yes, small mammals will trigger the camera. However, if you are going after smaller warm-blooded mammals, we recommend getting the camera closer to your target. For best performance, place the camera in an area that would enable picture detection from 3 - 20 ft.
Q: Can animals see the infrared flash on this camera?
A: This is somewhat controversial. Humans can't see the flash as the nanometer spectrum is above what the human eye can detect. It's also much harder for an animal to see, but that could depend on the species of animal as different species see in different light spectrums.
Q: Where can I purchase this camera?
A: From us! We hope to woo you with our incredible charm, two-year warranty, 90-day returns, free continental U.S. shipping, and technical expertise.
