Sony RX100 II as a Camera Trap

A camera that Sony has been producing for quite a while is the DSC-RX100 series.  The original was announced in 2012 as an advanced compact camera with a 20.2 megapixel sensor.  Since the release, the camera has been upgraded three times to the RX100 IV.  With version II came the addition of the Sony Multi Terminal connector.  This enables the use a a wired remote and makes it a great selection for a camera trap.

Here is the TRLcam version of a camera trap utilizing the Sony RX100 II.

The camera trap utilizes the same controller as our other video/still Sony traps.  The bank of switches set video length, day only, night only, 24/7, enable/disable internal PIR, enable/disable external flood for night video and system on/off.

Here are three sample daytime videos taken with the RX100 II camera trap.
