About this site
About Wildlife Trail Cameras
Wildlife Trail Cameras is an independent UK guide to trail cameras (camera traps) — for watching garden wildlife, nature at night, and keeping an eye on property.
What you’ll find here
- A camera database with the manufacturers’ specifications side by side, filters and a side-by-side comparison.
- Research reviews (specifications, what published reviews found, strengths, weaknesses and who it suits) — or, where no review has been published yet, a clearly labelled spec profile.
- Shortlists for hedgehogs, birds, badgers and foxes, security, beginners and 4G cameras, with their criteria shown.
- Guides to choosing, settings, placement, night-time infrared, batteries and cards, mounting, 4G SIMs, sharing clips, and the law on privacy and wildlife.
How we work
We don’t test cameras ourselves, and we say so on every camera page. Everything comes from sources we list — manufacturers, independent reviewers and official bodies — written in our own words with a checked date. Read how we review for the details.
Who runs it
Wildlife Trail Cameras is owned by Steven Smith. The site is independent of every camera brand and retailer, and is paid for by affiliate links — see our affiliate disclosure.
