From the outside, the wildlife camera makes a perfect impression. In my opinion it is also waterproof, which can be seen by the pressure on the lid to seal it. The seals hold the camera housing up to this point and no moisture penetrates.

The image quality is top, both resolution and color fastness are satisfactory.
The camera is powered by 8 AA batteries or AA rechargeable batteries.

The scope of delivery includes 8 AA batteries required to operate the camera, a 64 GB SD card, a micro-USB cable, a holder for screwing to a tree, a durable strap for attaching it and a really excellent user manual, also in German.

You can pull out the SD card and view all pictures and videos on the computer.

The image resolution for videos and photos can be changed: up to 48 MP Ultra HD for photos and 4K Ultra HD for videos with or without sound. In the settings you can set the display of the date and time; choose: slow motion movies, loop recording or continuous recording etc.).
Response time of the K&F Concept camera: 0.2 seconds after motion detection. The range is approx. 20 m. The image quality is quite acceptable for this price range.

Conclusion: It's a really good little camera, I can highly recommend the wildlife camera.

The "K&F Concept 24MP 1296P 30fps wildlife camera" is delivered complete. This means that 8 AA size batteries and a 64 GB SD memory card are included. If you prefer to operate the camera with mains power for continuous stationary use, you can do this too: There is a socket for a power supply. You can buy universal power supplies on Amazon with various interchangeable plugs and adjustable power. I was able to easily connect a cheap universal power supply to the camera and operate the K&F camera with mains power.

Inserting the batteries, the SD card and the necessary settings in the camera menu are intuitive and quick. The menu can be set to German using the language selection and this setting is retained even after the camera is switched off. My tip would be: Try out the different image resolution settings in practice. My experience has been that 48MP isn't necessarily always the best choice.

The camera records using visible light during the day and infrared at night. The infrared radiation is so low-frequency that it cannot be detected by humans or animals. The switchover takes place automatically. The motion sensor starts taking photos or videos quickly when a moving object comes into the 120° angle covered by the camera.

What about the quality of the photo and video recordings? That depends on what standard you apply when looking at the images. You cannot expect the sharpness and resolution of a sophisticated system camera that easily costs several thousand euros. And you certainly wouldn't hang a camera like this on a tree unattended in the dark forest. In fact, you get the image quality of a simple compact camera, and this wildlife camera is nothing else. Except that it specializes in the requirements of discreet wildlife photography. Do you need more? Certainly not, the image quality is completely sufficient for the purpose and is more than pleasing, although it will hardly win you a gold medal in the wildlife photo competition.

I can highly recommend this K&F wildlife camera, because that's all you need for the hobby of "secret" wildlife photography.

48MP 4K Trail Camera: Found this trail camera easy to set up. The guide provides good direction and explanation of the options. Everything worked as intended. The device feels solid and will hold up to outdoor use. After a rainy night, the interior was completely dry when I checked the next morning. The images accompanying this report were taken at 4:09 a.m. Sunrise was at 5:43am, you can see how well the device captures my horses in the early hours of the morning. Since I haven't decided where I want to put the camera yet, I left the protective film on the lens and sensor and it still took great shots. This was also on the 5MP setting, there are 6 higher quality settings above this level. The device comes with default settings and many other options so you can set it up for a variety of needs.

It was easy to view the photos on the camera itself and on the computer using the included USB cable and SD card. Fortunately, the security check did not reveal any problems with the device or the SD card. Everything you need to get started is included in the packaging. Great device!

The wildlife camera has everything you need to get it ready for use quickly. Unfortunately there is no battery installed, but there are 8x batteries, which are included. Includes a 64 gigabyte memory card. The resolution is very high and therefore creates wonderful videos/photos.

It is simply attached to a round object or tree and the angle of the camera can even be adjusted slightly downwards. The night vision goes up to 20-25 meters - although I would say that you can still see everything very well up to 10-15 meters. However, you need a small lock to lock it yourself. Otherwise, the device is also password protected in case someone tries to tamper with it.

The price is okay, it works and has a better resolution than some devices for €40-50 that we have also tested. Since I've been using cameras like this, I've always been curious about what's going on in the forest behind the house. But there are often days where not a single recording or photo was taken. Hopefully there is no error in the device. Because it is unusual that nothing triggers the whole day or several days.

The recommendation is still there!

If you are looking for a good wildlife camera that does its job reliably and guarantees high image quality, you have come to the right place. The assembly was easy and without any problems. A positive feature is the SD memory card (64GB) included in the delivery, which has sufficient capacity if checked regularly. I was able to easily secure the camera around a medium-sized tree using the mounting strap. In use so far, it has proven to be waterproof, even in the North German summer's constant rain. The quality of the recordings, both photos (48MP) and videos (4k), corresponded to the promised self-promotion. The night time recording quality is particularly impressive. The available video and photo settings enable a variety of modes, both in terms of the quality, number and frequency of photos, as well as the video length and resolution, as well as the sensitivity of the motion sensor. It turned out for me that the most sensitive setting of the sensor is not practical, as even the shaking of a branch or a plant in the wind triggers the camera. Only the less helpful operating instructions lead to a point deduction. However, with a little fiddling and patience, I was able to master the most important settings purely intuitively.

Conclusion:
K&F offers a solidly built and robust wildlife camera. It remains to be seen whether it will continue to function in continuous operation. Overall, I am so far satisfied with the performance offered in terms of video, image and motion sensor quality. The only thing that stands out negatively is the operating instructions, which are not helpful in every respect. Still a recommendation due to the comparatively low price.
Good wildlife camera in a reasonable price range

I’ve been putting the camera though the paces for a couple of weeks now and have to say for the price they have impressed me. I love the screw in mounts and will be getting more for my other cameras. I have never used them before, but they are a real game changer for my setups. The night pictures are good enough to see the animal in frame and sharp enough for my needs. Daytime pictures are blow your mind sharp and look great color wise.
Right now, with the heat not much is moving but I did get a doe at night and a doe and fawn in daylight for you to see the quality of this camera. Nice kit with everything needed right out of the box and very easy to setup. I’ll be throwing in some Duracell’s and putting it out in the woods tell September.

First trail cam for me and I'm glad I didn't buy a more expensive one straight away. This kit has everything you need to get started and capture those night and daytime images when you're not able to be "there".

The camera came well packaged including batteries, memory card, USB cable and mounting strap. The controls are on the inside of the device - note that you can turn off the noise when selecting your settings.

It's also worth noting that the instructions for use for this device specifically discourage the use of rechargeable batteries and only seem to recommend alkaline batteries - I'm not sure why, as I prefer NiCad rechargeable batteries for something where batteries will be used frequently.

I think I might buy one or two more of these since I'm so impressed with what I've seen so far.

The first commissioning didn't start well. The battery compartment cover should be unlocked with a small loop and then lifted. The first thing I pulled up was the loop itself. This is a thread that is too thin with an equally thin knot at the end. It promptly slipped through the eyelet of the battery compartment lid. The compartment could then only be opened with a screwdriver and a bit of fiddling. All you have to do is pull in a thicker thread with neat knots at the end.

Trigger time
I have already installed cameras in a few places on a nearby farm so that I can at least have an idea of ​​who has sometimes attacked the free-roaming poultry. Unfortunately, this camera is a bit behind when it comes to shutter speed. I have set photo + video, and if you look at the pictures and videos, the hedgehog, for example, is already in the middle of the picture until there is a first photo. With the rabbit and the hedgehog, the hedgehog was always the faster ;-)

Image quality and megapixels
In my opinion, there isn't much left of the 48MP of the K+F wildlife camera. In order to save storage space and recording time, much smaller images should also do the trick. For videos, FullHD is still okay for recording. The lighting at night is ok for my purpose. With strong contrasts of sunshine and shadow, not everything can be seen.

What else caught my eye? The closures do not press the lid too tightly against the seal. I can't say yet whether it's permanently waterproof. Until now everything inside was still dry.

The cam comes in the usual format and the controls don't differ too much from other cams (on/off slide switch at the bottom).

The menu navigation is also available in German (English preset) and the basic settings can be set up quickly. There are other formats where you despair. Here you can easily walk through from above and set everything up. Very good.

Also positive: batteries (8xAA) are included, as well as a 64GB SD card.
The SD card should be enough for hundreds of recordings. A jpg with the setting 48MP requires approx. 14MB.
You can go down to 5MP, so 64GB should be enough for a long time.

Video resolution ranges from 640x480p to 3840x2160p, I didn't test it because it's not interesting for me. At the highest setting, at least the "time-lapse setting" specifies 8MP. So not too high anymore, in video mode. As I said, not relevant to me.
Basically, the usual settings are possible here: sensitivity, number of images, duration of video recording, response time (0.2 seconds according to the manufacturer), etc.

Let's get to the recordings.
48MP sounds great at first! Higher resolution like some, professional DSLM, drones are beaten anyway, and that for 70 euros!
The image quality itself is no longer that great.
Certainly good during the day, see photos, but at night the whole thing falls away quite a bit and you can only see shadows. The excerpts are cropped to approx. 100%.
If you just need the pictures to look at them, everything is ok. When it comes to enlargements or sections, it becomes critical and you can clearly see the out-of-focus areas.
Of course, this also has to do with the optics. Clear.

In any case, the detection range is good, according to the manufacturer:
detection range of up to 120° and a detection distance of 25m
(although I doubt that you can still see anything at night at a distance of 25m. The rabbit was about 4m away, night shot). The night lighting probably no longer exists there either.

What really bothered me was the plastic equipment: fasteners, screw connections, "tree claw" - the ribbing at the back of the mount, all made of plastic.
I would have liked a little more quality, especially with the closures.
It also comes with a strap and a hook that can be screwed into wood, for example, and then the cam can be screwed onto the floor with the 1/4" thread (like with the recordings). The thing is made of metal and I found that very practical. However, I wasn't able to test whether it would still be stable when animals liked it. It would be worth a try ;-)

The cam costs around 70 euros and I think it's pretty decent.
Price-performance is therefore ok, image quality would only be 3 stars for me, only 2 at night
. If you want better image quality, you should choose higher quality cams.
Certainly well suited for occasional “monitoring” of the garden or individual areas.
Ok for the price, photo quality is not outstanding but okay Ok for the price, photo quality is not outstanding but okay Ok for the price, photo quality is not outstanding but okay

Very impressed with the more compact size of this K&F Trail Camera as well as all the accessories that accompany it! Really like the fact that inspite of its' more compact size, it operates on 8 AA batteries. Many smaller trail cams operate on 4 AA batteries and my experience is those usually go through batteries rather quickly. This trail cam also comes with a 64GB SD Card! Also really appreciate the camera giving you the option to format the SD card which is much more convenient than putting it into a laptop to format. This trail cam comes with a mounting strap that attaches through an adjustable mounting bracket. You have a second option of an included "tree nail" for mounting the camera. Trail cam also sports 48MP pictures and 4K videos. This camera also gives you the ability to keep the camera from looping over existing pics once the SD card is full. This is a feature packed trail cam and is a great value at its' price point.
