The Vikeri trail camera has a lot going for it, but mine creates tons of corrupt .JPG photos and .AVI video files. There's a family of foxes living under my shed, so I bought this trail cam to capture the vixen and kits. After two days it appeared dead, so I bought a leading competitor's camera (that has been working fine). The Vikeri was completely unusable and locked-up so I was planning on sending it back The SD card contained mostly corrupt files. I figured I should try formatting the mini SD card, however, and that got it working again. I kept getting corrupt files, even with fresh batteries, so I bought a 6V power supply to see if that would help. Nope, lots of unusable corrupt files. Then I tried the 32 GB Samsung micro SD card from my Nikon DSLR and still got lots of corrupt files. Then I tried another new card; more corrupt files. After reformatting the cards on a PC, I'm still getting corrupt files almost every night. A few nights I've gotten all good files, but most nights many or most files are corrupt. Sometimes the last third or two thirds are bad, sometimes the middle files are bad. The last two nights, the first 68 were bad, then files #69 and on were fine. (I usually get a bit over 100 files per camera each night (the baby kit foxes are running all around my back yard every night). While the leading competitor's camera gets great stuff all night long, the Vikeri creates junk files more often than not. These files can't be viewed in any player and recovery software can't fix them. TLLDR: Even with a 6V power supply or fresh batteries and 3 different good micro SD cards, my Vikeri creates more corrupt files than usable files. Update 7 months after purchase: This camera is now dead. The rubber seals failed and water entered the camera body which killed it. The Campark that we bought around the same time is still working fine under the same conditions.
