Please show me your camo camera, looking at putting one in a tree !

[Jack B Nimble]

I like to see your camo cameras. I will be hiking a turret in a tree and I am going to camo paint etc and perhaps even build a bird house around it. Looking ofr ideas and how you hide your wires say on the side of tree.

I don't have any pics, but I ran 4 Cat5e cables in a 1/2" or 3/4" grey electrical conduit. I ran the conduit underground to the tree, then on the back side of the tree so I couldn't see it from the house. My cam is totally visible, but that's my preference.

I may do another hidden install on a different tree and was considering just running outdoor rated Cat5 stapled to tree. Good luck

This one has no wires. 100% portable and takes a picture a second (or longer) for months on a set of batteries. Plotwatcher Pro game camera inside. Not much good at night without external light but great for keeping an eye on things away from home on short notice or in the boonies long term.

I'm also interested in seeing pics of this type of setup.

I will be moving one of my cameras to a tree in my back yard. I've ordered a mount and will be using PVC conduit buried across the yard to the tree. I will post pics once complete.

If you wanted to go super concealed cut a rebate into the tree and your conduit in that. Remove the bark first and glue it over the top for the perfect crime. The tree will continue to Grow around the conduit. Alternatively just paint everything matt black for low visibility.

I like the conduit idea. Was either going to paint mine or use something like thisCamo Sheets & Rolls | Camouflage Vinyl Rolls | Camowraps® to wrap conduit and camera

Can't do the in-tree method as it would def kill the tree I'm using.

I'm gunna run the conduit on the back side so we can't visual see it once I'm done. Spray paint it of course as well as the camera mount.

I wasn't looking to camo my cameras, just make them discrete and not bright white from the street. I mounted them high up above normal field of vision. I've had several people walk right by several times and I ask them if they saw the new cameras, not a single one has noticed them. Might not take as much as you are thinking. As long as they bend in slightly and are not contrasting to the tree color and the conduit is on the back side of the tree, you will probably be surprised how hard they are to see for the average person or criminal at night. The red IR illuminators give away the cameras more then anything at night.
