Alpha Cam Dual Lens 4K Review
Pros
- Solid picture and video quality
- Blistering fast in picture mode
- Incredible battery life
- Solid case design
Cons
- Hard to remove the SD card
Alpha Cam is a brand new trail camera company coming to market this year. This 4K model has high video resolution and dual camera lens (one lens for day photos, one for night).
Photo resolution: 32 mpxl (interpolated)
Video resolution: 3840 x 2160 @ 30 fps - 1920 x 1080 @ 60 fps
Video coding format: MOV
Flash Type: No Glow IR
Daytime images have realistic color and above average clarity. We have noticed some slight blurring on animals that aren't moving that fast. Overall, daytime images are quite solid.
Night photos have an adequate flash range for a no glow camera and seem to stop motion well. The contrast and clarity is a plus and the Dual Lens 4K doesn't appear to overexpose on close-up animals.
The daytime video quality on the 4K isn't as sharp as we expected from a 4K dual lens trail camera, however, it is still above average and shows good color and audio. The clarity is just average. Night videos are more impressive and have excellent clarity and contrast.
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.
Picture & Video Resting Power (on): 0.65 mW
Picture Daytime/Nighttime Power Consumption: 1.1 Ws | 0.9 Ws
Video Daytime/Nighttime Power Consumption: 16.7 Ws | 76.8 Ws
Picture Mode
If this camera were to take 35-day and 35-night pictures every 24 hours, the Alpha 4K would last 34.3 months in the field on a set of 8 AA lithium batteries. We consider this to be absolutely outstanding.
Video Mode
If this camera were to take 15-day and 15-night videos (10-second videos) every 24 hours, it would last 3 months in the field on a set of lithium batteries.
Picture Trigger & Recovery Speed: 0.14 s. | 0.7 s.
Video Trigger & Recovery Speed: 0.68 s. | 0.6 s. (In 4K mode: 0.85 s. | 1.0 s.)
Detection Range & Angle: 90ft. @ 41.5° (41.3° field of view)
Picture mode is blistering, top-notch fast. Video mode is very fast as well, coming in at about a half a second. There won't be much action missed.
The detection range is quite ample and the field of view and detection angle are perfectly matched, this is an impressive feat for a new camera company.
Dimensions: 5" x 4" x 2.5"
Battery Type: 8 AA
External Battery Jack: 12-volt
SD Card Size: Up 256GB
Case Design
The Alpha Cam 4K has a very familiar case design. There is a large latch for opening and closing this little unit and a fixed battery tray that accepts 8 AA batteries. The large screen on the inside of the camera makes picture playback and setting adjustments a cinch.
There is a tripod insert on the bottom of the camera and a python bracket on the back. Overall, case design is solid and looks exactly like many other camera models on the market. The SD card is hard to remove.
Camera Setup
Setting up the camera is super easy and done with backlight buttons and a large 2.4" screen. We never had to crack the user's manual and it is quite intuitive. The Alpha Cam has popular settings like hybrid mode (photo + video) and programmable start/stop time.

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.
Seriously, though, we know you have plenty of options of where to spend your hard-earned money. The internet can be the wild, wild, west of too-good-to-be-true deals. If you choose to do business with us, we will go out of our way to make sure you are happy with the camera you select and the service we provide you.

- In order to receive a full refund, items must be returned with their original packaging (including UPC code) and all contents
- Cameras or products must be returned in their original condition. You cannot write on the cameras, paint them or deface them in any way. This completely voids the warranty with both us and the specific manufacturer.
