My dad has a old cam, one of the first ones made. Its black, and bulky. It's only good for temperatures like 26 degrees and above. The day we put it out, it malfunctioned and took a whole role of the same pic. It was above 30 degrees. Nothing triggered the camera. Anyone know what could have went wrong?

Was there a limb or anything in the way of the sensor? Was it facing the rising or setting sun? Other than that, I don't know. Try it again.

DO you have it facing north, I have found that if you face them any other way when its cold it will be tripped by the sun.

It was facing northeast. The pics were taken while the sun was setting to the west. There was some limbs next to the sensor, but i thought we cut 'em down pretty good. The limbs must have triggered it, thats all i can think of. Thanks!

Maybe some ghosts were messing around with it out there. They usually do that to a couple of my pictures on every roll.
