Don't bother, wouldnt work longer than 3mins once it was just running on the batteries. #4x4superstore in Cairns Show details
4x4 supercentre cheap trail cameras – Ordered click and collect from Adelaide store and pickup last Saturday morning early. Went bought two new micro sd cards and energiser batteries for total extra $80 . Got home went through instructions (they are not correct for items sold as instructions say set button yet there’s only off,test, on and M. But once set up using test button the unit… Read more
once turned to on shuts down and doesn’t turn back on not with sensors or pressing the on button again. Both cameras purchased are the same. Called the help number and had to supply a video and description then takes 3-5 days for them to decide what to do! Can’t even take back to the store and return for a refund!! How can you buy direct from store and can’t return a brand new product! Couldn’t attach pictures

[Content Removed] rubbish - No refund - Store credit. Won't be back – These cameras work half the time (if at all) and turns on after the action has happened. Stupidly bought 2. Remember you have to also buy a $25 SD card and 8 AA Batteries. Took one back to replace. Then one back for refund (meant to take both. Now have one I can't be bothered returning. And two useless SD cards ($50). Returns service was shocking… Read more
- Completely uninterested. Return receipt specified refund - Got email saying I have store credit. Won't use it. Won't be shopping at Adventure Kings ever again.

Does good for the price – These do fine for the price point. good entry level for sure. now I have the hang of what I need, I will be upgrading. Biggest complaints, which are easily overcome, but frustrating each time are, 1 - the latches are finicky, 2 - the battery compartment and battery removal is far more difficult than need be. otherwise, 5 days easy battery life, full SD cards with reasonable footage of game. So a very good starter unit for the price. Show details

Scam and rip off – Order what they had on there web sit for the other half’s birthday. Couldn’t wait to get them and open them up to see his face.

there money. Have sent an email no reply. Called and no one want anything to do with you. Very disappointing very rude company. When they turn around and say not my problem. Which made me feel offended and discriminated. Very misleading product that is falsely advertising an item Wont be buy from them again and definitely will be telling people not to buy from them either

Doesn’t record – Very disappointed Kings as it doesn’t even record which is literally the whole purpose of it. I have a 32gb sd card in and it’s empty so it’s not because of space. Show details

Absolute garbage – Bought four, was hit and run last night. Camera recorded absolutely nothing. Ute is severely damaged. Absolutely no footage. Thank you so much Kings! Absolute and utter garbage, don’t waste your money. Now looking for actual dash cams to replace this crap Show details

Kings Dashcam camera – Bought 2 for $75 both worked for a few months. Decided to pull the card out and watch some vids. Both cameras the same can't play the files on any video player. Total rubbish glad I didn't have an accident and need the files. Chucked both of them away. Trying to find a quality dashcam now. Show details

Kings Dashcamera images/movies do not work – I bought the Kings Dash-cam two for $79.90 After a week I pulled out the SD card to view the images/Clips . To my surprise the images don't work . I am unable to view any images. The SD card was tested in other equipment s like cameras and it works fine. We have now deduced its a hardware issue , that is the KINGS DASH CAM. One is still sealed in the box. I now plan to return both units. I would not advise/recommend these DashCams. Show details

You get what you pay for + good service – I own 4 of these cameras, purchased at different times. They are not as good as the Bushnells or Reconyx, but the photos they take are reasonable and at $75 a piece I am not worried about leaving them on public land unattended. Recently two of the cameras started to make a clicking noise. I submitted a warranty claim to 4WD Supa centre and within 12 hours it had been resolved. Within 24hrs I had 2 new cameras in my hands.

Faulty product – Wont accept any sd cards absolute garbage sd cards work in every other thing i put them in but this camera by the reviews its a common problem. Makes me think all the good reviews are fake. Show details

Rubbish – Bought 2 and neither can even recognise SD card in unit. When plugged in to laptop the lappy recognises an sd card yet camera does not. Cannot format SD card in either camera as keeps saying "Memory Card Missing". Don't even waste your time with this product. Not only out of pocket for cameras and freight but for 2 SD Cards and 16 AA batteries which added nearly $100 of wasted money on these units. Never ever buy Kings products. Show details

Know better, choose better.
It does the job well for a cheap trail camera – I bought mine from someone who had purchased two on a deal from 4WD SupaCentre. It was still in its unopened box. I wanted to bust a cat that keeps getting into our yard, and it worked. Took a few photos and a video of it sneaking around at 4am, and you can clearly see the cat. I had placed the camera on the ground, which was not ideal for… Read more · 1
triggering the sensor either. Daytime photos are clear and not overexposed as some other reviews say, but daytime video has weird colours through it and could be a lot better (issue resolved now, see below). I would recommend this camera for nighttime use any day, and for the price ($89 new currently) it’s not too bad at all. I originally rated it 3/5 stars because I was having issues with the video quality, but that may have been due to the micro SD card not being the right type. Reducing the video resolution has sorted that out, and there really is nothing that I would complain about now. The detection setting I use is FAR (stated at 20m), but it really works at around 10m; more than adequate for most needs. I haven't had it set up out in the rain, so I can't vouch for how waterproof it might be, but in my experience water will find its way into virtually any container eventually, so don't expect it to be out there for a month in lousy weather and be bone dry inside. To sum it all up, if you're wanting a trail camera that doesn't cost an arm and a leg but still does a good job at capturing wildlife, prowling cats or even trespassers, this camera is well worth buying.
My Kings camera caught fire on first battery fitment – I bought two cameras in january. I loaded a full compliment of batteries Everready gold. I left camera off overnight on my bench, next morning no battery life, case had expanded, all batteries seriously expanded and burnt. Battery lid extensively warped and keyboard partially melted the result press buttons are now burnt and non funtional. Photos… Read more
taken of damage. My "Good" working camera has night vision reduced to a small circle and very dull. Tried recommended cures, new batteries different memory and re format, still same.

Rubbish – For a weatherproof outdoor trail cam very hit and miss. Mine are miss. No help under warranty. If insects can get in so can water. Insects shorted the batteries which obviously leaked, and have corroded everything including the sd card. Both cameras take a maximum of 5 viewable photos then freeze. Mates have some that work perfectly though I have obviously got 2 duds. Less than 12 months old. Show details

Cheap and unreliable - don't waste your money – Bought a year or so ago but this is the first time I've used. Photos are OK (none of the problems reported by others) but the video does not always work. I cannot see any recorded videos on the actual camera (screen says No File), but when I downloaded to my PC I had all the videos. Image quality is OK on computer monitor. Sadly many of my… Read more
videos have not recorded properly - image is frozen after a few seconds but timeline and sound continue to the end of the actual recording.
The camera is so small that it's very easy to get your fingers in the shot - selfie stick definitely needed to ensure cleaner shots.
I connected to a small selfie stick but the brass nut in the adapter came out after a few seconds rendering that mount useless. Luckily the camera only fell a meter or so onto grass.

The video is clear but photos over exposed and white – I set this up and in full sun the jpegs are overexposed / all white and you can not detect anything. I thought it was good value for money if it worked but unfortunately I bought a dud as I have read other reviews. If it worked I would recommend it but spend a bit more and get one that can take photos so you can use it as a trail camera and it is fit for purpose. Show details

Good cheap temporary camera – I bought this camera from the Burleigh 4WD Supa Centre around 07/2019. It was used primarily for SCUBA diving footage between 1msw and 17msw. The footage came out pretty clear however there were leaking issues that started this month at only 6msw (the camera is rated waterproof to 30msw) and I believe that is what caused the issue where the… Read more
camera will no longer recognise ANY memory card. The camera is now a brick that lights up with the adventure kings logo and that is it.
I don't know where the 'overexposure' complaints come from as I have used it for 11 months underwater and taking pictures of diving groups above water and the quality was always good.
They are not built to last (probably made in some chinese sweatshop). 11 months out of a camera is appalling, however the footage was good.
I have included a video taken just today with it to demonstrate the quality.

Average – Poor quality photos during daylight. All washed out and overexposed. Date and time constantly reset, they work sometimes and then they just randomly stop working. Cheap product, wouldn’t recommend these to anyone. Show details

Overexposure a huge problem – Unless the camera is fully in the shade and pointing to the shade the photos are basically white. Looking through the camera it looks fine but all photos are overexposed and of no benefit. Show details

Cheap & unreliable – When Camera did work, it was ok. pic`s and videos are ok. Easy to operate & transfer data to computer. Problems, buttons would fail, unable to turn on, unable to navigate between functions, 2 units under warranty both, had same problems. Show details
