Browning Spec Ops Extreme - A great camera
"This is my second Spec Ops Extreme and my favorite of the three different manufactured cameras I own. The sound and video is outstanding."
Browning Spec Ops Extreme
"Pros: Great daytime & long range clear night pictures & very good battery life. Excellent sensitivity and video startup times. Lots of user options. Cons: Daytime pictures could use a little more contrast/pop. Biggest problem is blurred nighttime videos on moving objects. (Reason for 4 instead of 5 stars) Seems only the "Blackout" cameras have this problem. Fix that and this camera would be almost perfect. Own 2 of these, 1 for security & one for hunting. Would Recommend!"
Browning Spec Ops Extreme
"Awesome camera had out over 2 months as cold as 15 below and still took excellent pictures. Worth every penny!"
Great Photos
"I have been using this for about one week and am really impressed with the quality and clarity of the still photos and the videos. I have a Browning Strike Force HD Pro that I have been using for about 8 months and I find the Spec Ops Extreme to produce far superior images. It is interesting that the Spec OPs produces MP4 videos while the Strike Force produces AVI videos. I don't know if that accounts for any of the video quality difference, but the 20-second AVIs tend to be about 61 MB while the MP4s are about 45 MB. I haven't got a good read on battery life, but so far the batteries are showing about 95%."
Best Surprise Christmas gift of the year!
"I bought this camera for my dad and from the moment he opened it he was like a little kid in a candy shop. He has used it several times even just the short amount of time he's had it (it's January 5) he is too excited to use it in the coming years! Thanks for the great recommendation by trailcamerapro. Wouldn't change a thing!"
The best for the money
"Beautiful video and easy set up. So far, so good. Love it!"
Browning Spec Ops Extreme
"For the price I think the Browning Spec Ops Extreme is an excellent choice. I had previously purchased a couple of Browning Spec Ops XR's and was very pleased with the camera's for the price and wanted to get 2 more. I was disappointed when I was told they were no longer available. I was skeptical that the new version would be as good as the old but was pleasantly surprised that it is."
After 30+ days, first results
"I spent considerable time deciding which camera to buy. I wanted great photos with great sound. I chose the Browning Spec Ops Extreme for this very reason...you know, looking at what other guys were sharing with different cameras. Check it out :) https://youtu.be/vdj5ThD-OU0"
Browning spec ops extreme
"This is my second Browning spec ops extreme from Trailcam pro. I could not be happier with them. None of the pictures day or night have spooked the deer what so ever. Videos are out of this world!! Being 52 years old and not to tech savy I found these cameras to be very easy to program and set up to my liking."
Q&A
- The SD card inserted into my home Windows 10 Dell desktop is not being read. Now at work on my laptop running Windows 7 Pro, the SD card is recognized. Why the difference? I am seeing info on the Net about this Windows 10 problem concerning SD cards, along with various "fixes." But now thinking if I just ask you guys it will be much easier to fix by following your instructions.
- Not sure but my work computer does the same thing. I believe it is due to just having a bad sd card reader in my computer?
- What is the difference between Video Mode and TrailCam operation mode? I want to set my camera out near a cave of sorts and have the camera take video of various animals that may stop by.
- Trailcam mode will take pictures. Video mode will take videos. Thanks
- One of the reviews stated that tenergy rechargeable batteries didn't work in this camera. Is that true?
- Browning cameras work with Tenergy Nimh rechargeable batteries. Thanks!
- What is the response time for the Browning Spec Ops Extreme? Thank you.
- You can find this in the category "Detection Circuit." In the case of this camera, it is 0.8 seconds.
- Can you elaborate on the time-lapse function? Do you get (let's say 700) individual jpg files that you can then make into a time-lapse footage using an NLE? Or does the camera create an in-camera movie file of the time-lapse sequence and if so what type of file is being made? If so can this be viewed on an Apple OS?
- Jeff, Time lapse is on one file that is viewed on the supplied Browning Time Lapse CD software. You can go through all the images here and pull screenshots of a particular picture (s) you may want.
- can you lock this without a security box?
- Yes, it has a metal bracket on the back of the camera that a python fits through. Thanks
- What external 12volt accessories/12v supplies are available for the 2017 spec ops extreme please
- Here is the power pack: https://www.trailcampro.com/collections/browning-trail-cameras/products/browning-trail-camera-power-pack
- Does it have the option of 2 or 3 minute detection delay between pics or is like the last years models which only offers 30sec, 1,5,10 min delays to choose from?
- Steve, I believe the delays are identical to last year.
- What is the maximum night video length?
- 20 seconds on all Browning cameras.
