The Camtraptions products contained in the Garden Bundle will last over 5 days on standby when powered by alkaline batteries. If you need a longer standby time, then the Wilderness Bundle can last for over 2 months and offers wireless communication plus an extra flash and protective camera housing. The Quick Deploy Camera Trap is also available in wireless and wired versions, with an approximate 2 month and 4 month life respectively.

The bundle has been designed to provide everything necessary for stills photography, but video recording may also be possible for certain camera models. Please contact us for details.

Free Camera Connecting Cable

The Garden Camera Trap Bundle is compatible with many DSLR and mirrorless camera models from Canon, Nikon, Sony, Panasonic, Fuji, Olympus and OM System.

A compatible camera connecting cable is included free with every purchase of a Garden Camera Trap, however, the correct cable must still be selected and added to your cart separately from the Camera Connecting Cables page.

The free cable discount will be applied automatically at checkout when the Garden Camera Trap and Camera Connecting Cable are purchased together.*

If you are unsure about compatibility then we recommend getting in touch before placing your order.

Additional Equipment

Please note that the Garden Bundle does not include the camera and lens.

The following items are also recommended to help create your first camera trap:

• A light stand or Tree Bracket for mounting the Camera Trap Flash.
• A tripod or Jungle Mounts Tripod for mounting the camera.
• A 5m Extension Cable if you want to position the PIR Sensor further from the camera.
• A Flash Cable Splitter, an extra Flash Cable, and an F1 Flash if you would like to use two off-camera flashes in your trap.
• A set of Wireless Triggers v2 if you would like to use the flash wirelessly.

Product Compatibility

*Some entry-level Nikon cameras do not have a shutter release port for connecting third party trigger equipment, which makes them incompatible with this bundle.

*Some entry-level Canon DSLRs feature a non-standard flash hot shoe mount and are therefore incompatible with the Flash Hot Shoe Adapter and Camera Trap Flash in this bundle.

*The free cable discount only applies when the products are purchased together in the same order. The discount cannot be applied retrospectively. Only one free cable is included per Garden Camera Trap. Additional cables can be purchased in the same order (at full price) and the discount will automatically be applied to the cheapest cable in the cart.
