Thank you so much! I had a QS12FX camera (Used, not in a package) given to me from a family member, so I didn't have an instruction manual to go off of to figure out how to set it up. Although yours was a slightly different model, the instructions were still fairly the same, and I was able to figure out how to set up the camera! Thank you so much!
LOL! Thanks, I bought several cameras to set up around my property, but I bought this one to be a remote cam in a place I seldom travel. I set it up, (so I thought) left it for a month and pulled the card hoping to see all the bears roaming my property, to my shock, I never hit the "Quit" function so it never recorded a thing. Lucky for me you posted an idiots guide for this camera since I lost the instructions. Thanks much.
After years of using trail cameras I have found it best to use the blue /silver colored lithium batteries for longer life. yes, they are expensive but in the long run it's better
Thanks for the video is very good when you go straight to what you want to show people how to do.... can you when having a chance show how to review the videos and photos on phone,, tablet,,, or computer
On the cam when its goes threw the count down and says ready, do you just close it up?or after the count down and when it say ready do you hit enter??? Or just when it says ready just close it up and its ready????? Please help thanks
I have had Mine for less than a year, and It takes pictures of eeverything But when I leave the deer come all around it and no pictures, and the batteries are new, It also took 2 pictures as I was removing the card, Do you have any Idea what is wrong? Is it me or the camera?
I got the same one. So you are telling me that on video mode I can only choose 5 min delay between video shoots? I can't choose 60 min or 30 min delay? Last night I set up this camera in the woods and all the SD card memory was used up in 1hr because it kept taking videos of critters every 5 mins and it overwrote previous nocturnal video which was the one I was interested in. I want it to record 1 min video every 30 mins and not be triggered every 5 mins.
Instructions on my newly purchased QS14AT say "with the SD card label facing towards the front of camera, insert the SD card". It won't go in this way. The SD card label needs to face the back of camera as you are doing it. Mistakes like these that one encounters at the very beginning of sitting the thing up are really discouraging for folks who are a bit scared of technology to begin with
what are you using to view videos? i have the same camera and have no problems with pictures but i cant watch the videos that are recorded with my chrome book, ipad or laptop. i have tried several sd cards and i still have the same issue
I'm having the same problem. I had the P12 but took it back when I couldn't get video to play on my phone, now I have the QS12K and I'm still not able to view video, that's too coincidental that I get 2 defective cameras in a row. Maybe there's a setting on my phone and I'm just not getting right.
I have had the same issue even after reformatting 4 SD cards, camera us set for 15 sec. video and I can not even view the videos on the stealthcam card reader. SD cards are formatted in NFTS format.
I have the exact same camera but for some reason mine dont take night pictures is there a reason why? And usually when i go to check on it,its usually off
Whitetail Hunter Outdoors I got another question man thanks for the response. I have my SD card in the cam but it's pretty deep inside the slot and I'm having trouble getting it out. Is there a button that pops it out?
I’m actually looking at buying this camera at Dicks Sporting goods, they have them on sale for $49. Is there anyway I could see what kind of photos it takes? Morning and night if I could? Thanks!
Whitetail Hunter Outdoors Done subscribed and everything. I hunt in South Georgia right on the Okefenokee Swamp. Always cool to see how other people hunt in Georgia.
i have this camera and watched your video and set it up it was working inside but when my husband took it out to the deer feeder over night we put the sd card in computer to look at pics and there were only 3 of him no deer any idea why ?
How do u find the video on the stealth cam? It took 5 videos..I used my sd card and the adapter to check it out on my phone. All the pics showed up but whenever I put it on video it just shows blanks. Like itll show the 5 videos it took but when i click on them they are all black. What am i doing wrong?
Buddy those "purple" lights are infra-red lights and you can't see them, the only reason you see them is because the guy's video camera somehow catched it, but no animal or human eyes can see them at night, that's the point.
you have to make sure you insert the little SD card in the bigger SD card. The little one is the real memory chip, the bigger one is an adaptor to let the Game Camera's bigger slot hold it...likewise for your computer SD drive if you try to view your pix that way
Good video, you went a little fast for me to look at the video and then my camera and your fingers hid what button you were pushing on. Also, the display is pretty crummy in as much as trying to figure out what mode it is on, like another viewer said, "it's like an etch-a-sketch", can't really make out what the display says...You were helpful, but please try again, with a pause and a little slower for us beginners ...:-)).............
Once you open the bottom there is a power button. Just hold it down for a second or two once you put batteries in. It should turn on, then it is ready for use.
This camera is junk and whats bad is I bought the newer version.. The 16mp. I set it up for a week then went this weekend to pick it up. It took 11,000 pics and 80% of them are blurred. The night time pics are distorted. I won't buy another one. I experimented with alot of different cameras. Another bad one is the tasco 10 mp camera. I bought 3 in Febuary and all of them take 3 pics then pauses for the next 3. Out of the 3 pics each time, 2 of them are dark. The video is bad quality. All of mine have lines running across. I'm going back to reconyx. It is expensive but you get what you pay for.
Fantastic video! Even in the future - I come from 2024

yeah the display is designed for dyslexic folks. have to use the instructions to decipher the commands. F70dE.
Very good introduction of the camera. Thanks.
Bro this would have taken me forever to set up thanks so much for posting a vid this easy to follow and understand 🙂
Thanks my homie. Thought my display was on the fritz right out of the box but your demo is the same
Same here! I couldn't make heads or tails out of this POS display.
Camera is good, but that display needs to go.
After years of using trail cameras I have found it best to use the blue /silver colored lithium batteries for longer life. yes, they are expensive but in the long run it's better
Your video was very helpful on how to use this cam, big thumbs up to you
I have a slightly newer model but your explanation really helped out. thanks
I just picked one of these up today. hopefully it works!
This is no glow or low glow?
Zeus I believe it’s low glow. Although mine has never worked correctly so...
Thanks for the video is very good when you go straight to what you want to show people how to do.... can you when having a chance show how to review the videos and photos on phone,, tablet,,, or computer
Just bought 2 of these there awesome
Many thanks. So much easier to understand than the instructions 😁
Just got the BT14K stealth got it running now. Good test photos so far. Was $55 at Cabela's
Very well explained 5/6/22
Watching you from Agency Iowa. Thank you!
I thought I set it ours up just like this. But the only pics it takes is the ones of us setting it up and taking it down. Help please.
Kellie Cook Ransom the cameras suck. It’s not a setup problem
I changed out the batteries but it still doesn't turn on. Is there anything else for me to check on why it still isn't working?
Thank you for informative video! Very helpful
On the cam when its goes threw the count down and says ready, do you just close it up?or after the count down and when it say ready do you hit enter??? Or just when it says ready just close it up and its ready????? Please help thanks

After reading the comments sounds like playback of the card is a problem. Any helpful hints?? Thanks.
Need StealthCam FX series set up directions...

nice camera how do you turn off after you set it up
Just find the QUIT section when in the settings and click enter.
what are you using to view videos? i have the same camera and have no problems with pictures but i cant watch the videos that are recorded with my chrome book, ipad or laptop. i have tried several sd cards and i still have the same issue
Not sure what your issue might be with that. I would call the company and ask for a new camera.
I'm having the same problem. I had the P12 but took it back when I couldn't get video to play on my phone, now I have the QS12K and I'm still not able to view video, that's too coincidental that I get 2 defective cameras in a row. Maybe there's a setting on my phone and I'm just not getting right.

Nice video, just bought this
I have the exact same camera but for some reason mine dont take night pictures is there a reason why? And usually when i go to check on it,its usually off
does the camera/video only activate when something passes by or is a constant recording if I have it on video mode?
Only when something walks by it.
Whitetail Hunter Outdoors I got another question man thanks for the response. I have my SD card in the cam but it's pretty deep inside the slot and I'm having trouble getting it out. Is there a button that pops it out?
Just push it with your finger nail. It is spring loaded. Should come right out.
Whitetail Hunter Outdoors does the video mode capture audio? I uploaded the files to my computer and I have the videos but can't hear anything.
No audio on this camera. Other higher end cameras offer that feature.
I’m actually looking at buying this camera at Dicks Sporting goods, they have them on sale for $49. Is there anyway I could see what kind of photos it takes? Morning and night if I could? Thanks!
I just uploaded the video to show the pictures and videos go check it out on my channel.
Whitetail Hunter Outdoors Done subscribed and everything. I hunt in South Georgia right on the Okefenokee Swamp. Always cool to see how other people hunt in Georgia.
I've hunted down there on family friends property. I have shot a few deer down there but I have had a harder time seeing big buck there.
i have this camera and watched your video and set it up it was working inside but when my husband took it out to the deer feeder over night we put the sd card in computer to look at pics and there were only 3 of him no deer any idea why ?
Like my Stealth cam black ops 8 pics but the thing eats batteries.
This is low glow or no glow?
Does this camera take pics at night?
So wen you quit and say ready dose it automatically record or take photos
it counts down from 10 i think then starts operating.
How high up off the ground do i need to mount the camera at 40 feet away?
what size is the video 64 x480or 1280 x 720? or something else
How do u find the video on the stealth cam? It took 5 videos..I used my sd card and the adapter to check it out on my phone. All the pics showed up but whenever I put it on video it just shows blanks. Like itll show the 5 videos it took but when i click on them they are all black. What am i doing wrong?
I had some issues with this as well, the best thing to do is put the card in your computer and view them there. I hope this helps.
I put it right and when its is "rdy" it put next " SD LC" ! and it turn off and nothing is taken by the camera. Ayone with this problem?
Would this make a good security canera?
no. not very good night vision either. buy something of more quality. this is good for toying around.
My camera takes way to many pictures and this is not my fist tail camera , so i know to clear the area
Lo malo es que el doblaje cubre la Cámara y se ve muy poco
What's the difference between a qs12k and just a qs12?
The k includes memory card I think
I just get this camera but my came in 3pack but idk I never use this kind befor how good is the night pics if anybody know
HOW DO YOU TURN IT ON?
mine doesnt show any of the purple lights why? is it a setting
Buddy those "purple" lights are infra-red lights and you can't see them, the only reason you see them is because the guy's video camera somehow catched it, but no animal or human eyes can see them at night, that's the point.
does it flash and scare game off ?
No it uses a infared light and there is a very small red light when it takes a pic but doesn't bother game.
Just unpacked mine and inserted SD card. Won't recognize it. Says "No card". Now what? I've had it in and out 10 times.
Use a different SD card or format the card on the computer. Sometimes the cards go bad.
Mine only works with the one it came with ive tried dozen of other cards all diff memory sizes and nothing.
I had the same problem and I was installing it in the wrong way!! Now no more issues😀good camera
you have to make sure you insert the little SD card in the bigger SD card. The little one is the real memory chip, the bigger one is an adaptor to let the Game Camera's bigger slot hold it...likewise for your computer SD drive if you try to view your pix that way
depends on where the card is bought from. bought a pack off ebay and one was not working. might have to format off computer.
Good video, you went a little fast for me to look at the video and then my camera and your fingers hid what button you were pushing on. Also, the display is pretty crummy in as much as trying to figure out what mode it is on, like another viewer said, "it's like an etch-a-sketch", can't really make out what the display says...You were helpful, but please try again, with a pause and a little slower for us beginners
...:-)).............
Would the low glow spook bull elk ?
No it will not.
Or please go from setting up to watching the videos please
how do you delete the card in the camera or can you
Does The Stealth Cam QS12K have Night Vision?
Yes.
not the greatest. pretty grainy unless it is within 10 feet of the camera.
how do you delete the in the cvamera
I tried this camera and it would not work. took it back and got another and it still wouldn't work. Buy something else.
I am not very smart and this may be stupid But how do I turn it on ? and how can I tell if it is working?
Once you open the bottom there is a power button. Just hold it down for a second or two once you put batteries in. It should turn on, then it is ready for use.
Hello, does this have audio? I don't see your video posted on the demo, that's the only way I would buy this, thanks
No audio. Most trail cameras don't.

These cameras suck. Got a two pack in December. They’re missing all kinds of motion. And the night pictures are trash.
