I’m also looking for the G42NG manual! I’ve heard it has impressive image quality, especially in low-light conditions. Anyone tried it out in the dark?

Absolutely! The night vision on the G42NG is fantastic. I captured clear images of deer at night without any flash.

I’ve found the motion detection settings to be quite responsive! I set mine to high sensitivity, and it catches everything that moves. Works well for my backyard.

Good to know! Does that lead to any false triggers? I’ve heard mixed reviews.

From my experience, there are occasional false triggers, especially with wind movements. Overall, the clarity is worth the few extra shots of nothing.

Exactly! Plus, the photo quality during the day is stunning. Great for wildlife observation.

Does anyone have tips on positioning the camera? I’d love to optimize the night vision feature in wooded areas.

Positioning is key! Try to face the camera slightly downward to reduce background movement and increase the focus on animals. It worked for me!

Good tip! I’ve been setting mine flat, but I keep getting branches and leaves triggering it.

Haha, I’ve made that mistake too! It’s like the trees love my camera. Maybe a slight tilt can help avoid that.

I wonder how the G42NG compares with other models in the market? Can anyone provide insight?

I think it’s competitive! The G42NG stands out for its stealthy design and price point. Others might have more features, but often at higher costs.

I can help! You can find the manual for the Stealth Cam G42NG on the official Stealth Cam website under the support section. It’s a great resource for setting it up.

Make sure to place the camera about 3 feet off the ground facing slightly downward for the best angle. I’ve had success with that setup!

That website is super helpful! They have videos too. Any specific features you’re curious about?

Great tip! Also, don’t forget to test the field of view before you leave it out for a long time.

Don’t forget to set the shutter speed! A faster speed is great for capturing moving animals, which can be tricky. Try 1/1000 if you’re in low light.

Has anyone connected their G42NG to a mobile app? I’m struggling a bit with that. Any pointers would be nice!

You might want to make sure your Bluetooth settings are correct first. It can be really finicky!
