Well, the last thread this apparently cursed camera was involved in was bizarre, so it figures the sequel would be. ( I thought, "good grief imagine what the forum guys will say now) My son John and I ( the oldest who has had many adventures shared with you all) went out to check my cameras this afternoon. We got some decent pics on the first two but when we got to the third (a Bresser 5 MP model, around $35 at Walmart) it hadn't got anything. I figured it was the batteries since we had to change out the ones on it's twin last week. We came prepared and put in brand new Energizer AA batteries. I know they were in the right way and what-not because I double checked the +/- symbols before I put them in.
We were hanging about waiting to see if it was going to work when there was a fairly loud "pop" from the unit and a blue flash. ( we had not shut the battery door ). While we were still exclaiming about these events, there was another pop, some sizzling, and a third and final pop. At this point it began oozing acid and I had the presence of mind to borrow John's camera and take a short video.
Note about halfway through how John takes a look at the trailcam and ducks out of frame.
If you listen close you can hear it crackling and sizzling.
Yes, this is the very same camera that caught the mystery Sheriff deputy that spawned such a long thread.

Anyway, what in the world???
Woody, I posted this on the Huntingindiana FB page to hopefully give it a little pop before I put it anywhere else on FB.
