Few things have impacted the way deer hunters hunt like the advancement of trail camera technology. Some hunters hate them, but most hunters love them and rely on them for priceless intel, season after season.
Like the years before it, 2024 delivers another boom in trail cam options and advancements. Here’s a look at the new trail cameras for 2024.
Stealth Cam Revolver
Stealth Cam is stirring a lot of buzz for 2024 with the release of their all new Revolver trail camera. The Revolver is built to deliver 360-degree cellular capabilities and so much more. Most notably, the Revolver covers six zones to deliver a complete panorama of its surroundings. This means users get a full 360 degrees of visibility, day and night, to ensure they never miss a thing—even deer passing behind where the lens is positioned. Thanks to a silent, pivoting motor, the Revolver offers the option to get more than just one photo from a single vantage when a zone is triggered. The camera responds quickly to movement, situating its lens in the correct zone to deliver high-quality images and videos in real time,
making it ideal for use on food plots.
Hunters can choose from three photo operation settings, including:
• Single-zone capture, which takes a single photo or video of only the triggered zone, like
most traditional trail cameras.
• 180-zone capture, which takes three photos of three different zones: one of the zone to
the left of the triggered zone, one of the triggered zone itself, and one of the zone to the
right of the triggered zone.
• 360-zone capture, which takes a photo of all six zones, in order via a clockwise rotation,
starting with the designated “zone one.” Thus, users will receive six images of the entire
area surrounding the triggered zone, the equivalent of a panoramic photograph.
