The most common resolution in trail cameras are 1080p which has a bit rate of 8 Mbps, and a 720p which is 5 Mbps.
Most trail camera manufacturers do not provide the bit rate of their cameras, but do provide the photo resolution. In general the higher the bit rate a camera takes, the high the quality of the photo. An SD card’s capacity for videos is determined by the Mega bits per second (Mbps) or bit rate. While understanding the capacity for photos are pretty cut and dry, the amount of storage you will need for running your camera in video mode, takes a bit more work. A helpful resource is SanDisk’s photo capacity chart, which will give you an accurate amount of storage available for your camera based on the MP it uses. A general rule of thumb is that for a standard 8 megapixel camera, an SD card will hold approximate 350 photos for every 1GB. The recommended capacity of your trail camera is just the maximum size of disk it will accept, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you need to spend all your hard earned money on storage you may never use. It is important to read the owners manual for your specific camera to assure the maximum capacity SD card your camera will take. Card CapacityĪlmost all trail cameras on today’s market accept an SD card with a storage capacity of at least 32GB, with some able to hold a capacity up to 512GB. We cover specifically standard sized SD cards in this article, but here is an article we spent time on constructing a helpful resource on using micro SD cards. The best SD card for your trail camera depends on many factors specific to your camera, such as storage capacity, card size, and speed in transferring photos to the card. SD cards are essentially the storage to your camera, and matching the best card to your camera is critical for the best results. Wireless cameras, blue tooth connections, 4K video modes and high megapixel counts are all amazing features, but without the correct SD card, are unable to perform to their intended levels. Lets be honest, in the realm of trail cameras there are hundreds of topics more exciting than SD cards.
