Anyone have a Game Cam that sends you pics/video to your phone ?

@mowin Thanks for the feed back on your cell cams. I have several acres with my regular game cams around in different spots with most around the coops to see what's lurking around especially at night when most of the predators roam here. I did a lot of research before I got my original cameras several years ago. There was a lot of info on YouTube showing the differences such as no glow vs low glow as well as the LEDs and PIR's. I have some rather poor cameras but most are good especially with the nighttime pictures. I personally don't mind going out and swapping out the memory cards every morning and I also check the birds since most of the cameras are near the coops, but my DH wants me to try either a WiFi camera or a cell camera.
 
If your cell works out by the coop, a cell cam should also work depending on signal strength. I've never used a wifi cam, so can't comment on them.
Here a pic from one of my cell cams.
Do you have any nighttime pictures with your cell cam?

Be aware that a cell cam sends a compressed pic to your phone. Some cam manufacturers sent pics are a better quality then others. Thats one reason I like the tactacams over the stealth cam.
You can also set the cams to send the pics immediately, but while uploading and sending, the cam cannot take another pic. The stealth cam takes over a minute to upload and send, the tactacams about 20 seconds. You can also set the cam to upload and send the pics every hr, twice a day or once a day. I have mine set for every hr.
 
I looked up the tactacams. It appears they work on verizon. I found one that works with AT&T too.

They have at&t cams also.
Oh ya, just remembered. There's a device the converts non cell game cams to cell cams. Don't have any experience with them though

I looked them up and apparently they only work with cameras that take the standard SD cards, not the micro SD cards. Most of my cameras take the micro SD cards.
