Brinno Time Lapse Camera BCC300-M - Outdoor Construction Jobsite, Plant, Weather Timelapse Camera - LCD Screen, Extended Battery Life, IPX4 Water-Resistant, Wall Mount

Camera was super easy to setup. Be sure to hit the center oaky button to start recording. It will say REC when recording. It can be confusing as it says on in the bottom left corner suggesting it is recording. I setup a time schedule, mounted it, and never looked back. Super easy, amazing video quality, and very affordable!

I purchased 3 of these and none of them work. Almost a thousand dollars now down the drain. Initially, the tests worked, but once they were put in place, nothing. I thought at first there was a problem with the memory cards, so I bought new memory cards. Tested, worked fine. Then put in place and ran them for a while - now still nothing. Now it's past the return window and I'm just out a ton of money.

The Brinno BCC300-M is a dependable option for long-term time-lapse projects, especially outdoors. It delivers good results in normal lighting, and the included case feels sturdy enough for jobsite or weather-exposed setups. However, there are a few things users should watch for. Low-light performance is limited, and footage becomes noticeably grainy as the light drops. The front lens can also loosen over time if the camera is frequently adjusted; I learned the hard way and lost a full day of footage because the lens shifted out of focus. Previewing video on the device would be a helpful feature, as you currently need a computer to check your results. A built-in leveling guide for vertical and horizontal alignment would also make setup much easier. Overall, it is a very good time-lapse camera, as long as you know these limitations going in and double-check the lens before each shoot.

Solid camera. Video recording quality is decent for a time lapse camera. However I do have major complain with the waterproof casing. When doing shot water condensation collects inside the case causes blurry video till it dries up. DId checked many times it is installed properly and ensures that the rubber gasket is clean. Still water accumulates inside the casing after every rain.

Update 7.15.2024 - Sadly night mode does not work. There is so much grainy/static like interference in the images, this seems to be useless for any type of night-time time-lapse you might want to do. Hoping maybe I just got a bad unit. Waiting for customer service to ping me back - sent messages both to their website as well as their YouTube product page. Will adjust rating appropriately After purchasing (and returning) two different time-laps cameras, each of which I spent hours trying to program or connect to an app, I finally bit the bullet and paid the extra money for a Brinno. SUPER easy set up. No need to schedule, so you can just hit the ok button and start recording. Did a test by timelapsing a YT vid and it worked fine. Taking it outside now to do a more proper test, but I'm SUPER stoked that it appears that I don't have to send this one back too. 3rd time's a charm. It was kind of disappointing that I had to purchase a waterproof case, but the cost didn't deter me. Very SIMPLE camera that is made for one thing.. time-lapse photography. If you're looking for easy, this one is recommended. Will update if things go awry.

Bought for a construction project. Followed every instruction. Said it was recording. Checked a month later and it’s recorded literally nothing. Wonderful. What a monumental waste of money.

Disappointed the device cannot take still images. This seems like a simple function, but a more expensive model was is required. Overall video quality is very low making the device all but useless if you care about what the end result looks like.

Great camera but you'd better be tech savvy as didn't come with good directions.
