Have several tails, I would assume that it was the flash. The deer are back within several minutes. I did notice that there was a difference when a 3 or 5 picture burst was done. The deer did not come back for a while. A single flash was not as bad.  |

I think if someone can AFFORD a flashless camera it is better than a flashing one. I would like to put the two different ones on one piece of property and see what corn piles the deer spend more time at, flash or flashless. Also do deer go the flashless pile but not to the flash pile?

I've been running a camera with flash for seven or eight years now, and in all that time only have two pics of deer spooking off the flash. Not to say they might not avoid that spot in the future, though, so I'm undecided. But they keep coming back to the corn piles regardless of flash. Over the last 4 nights I had 133 pics on the cam, all of the same doe/fawn groups.

When you see tails, are there pictures prior to the tails that show feeding deer. It could be the noise of the camera feeding the film. Unless you have the digital kind. I know deer are quick but they can't jump a flash. Something else is scaring them if you have single pics of running deer.
