Camera Trap Journal
Camera Trap Journal is the field notebook that makes camera trap setups repeatable.Built by Camtraptions, it gives wildlife photographers a structured, visual way to document deployments, track changes, and work methodically in the field.THE PROBLEMYour camera saves aperture, shutter speed, ISO, and focal length in every image. But it does not record the flash positions, flash powers, aiming, modifiers, sensor placement, or overall layout that actually created the shot.That means successful camera trap images are often difficult to repeat. If you want to recreate a setup, improve the lighting, or explain a change to someone else in the field, you are often left relying on memory, rough notes, and trial and error.THE SOLUTIONCamera Trap Journal gives every setup a complete visual record. Document where your camera, flashes, sensors, and subject area were positioned, along with the settings for each piece of equipment. Use built-in checklists to guide deployments and maintenance visits, make targeted changes, and track how each setup evolved over time.The result is a more repeatable, methodical workflow for camera trap photography.VISUAL SETUP EDITOR• Place cameras, flashes, sensors, and subject markers on a top-down canvas• Flash direction indicators with power settings• Freehand drawing for paths, obstacles, and vegetation• Text labels for extra notes and annotationsCOMPLETE SETTINGS CAPTURE• Camera settings: lens, focal length, crop factor, aperture, ISO, shutter speed, and exposure mode• Flash settings: power, zoom, modifier, and distance to subject• Sensor settings: position, sensitivity, and heightCHECKLISTS FOR EVERY DEPLOYMENT• Built-in Setup Checklists and Visit Checklists based on real-world camera trap workflows• 24-item default Setup Checklist for deployments• 16-item default Visit Checklist for maintenance and routine checks• Fully customizable — edit, reorder, add, or remove items• Add one-off reminders for a specific visit• Quick actions let you add photos, voice notes, or diagram updates without leaving the checklist• Completed checklists are saved with your visit historyVISIT LOGGINGEvery visit can be logged as a new version of the setup, with the canvas, settings, notes, photos, and completed checklists saved together.
