Buyer beware on long range camera systems.

If you really want a good system, buy the Shot Marker and never look back.

Here is a link to a long range target camera video from 2012 that a guy made himself. Seeing how this particular technology is 7 years old, it still shows what can be done for do-it-yourselfers.

I too have the Bullseye and have used it successfully to 600yds. The only problem I've encountered is I have to use reactive style targets, like Shoot-n-see. 600yd targets that are black and white make viewing extremely difficult.

I wonder if using a colour other than white or black on the target would help? I have only just bought a Bullseye target cam and was hoping I didn't need to use shoot-n-see targets.

I just print out target's on my printer in red or pink, you can see them clearly.

If you shoot on a white/cream color background you will be fine.

Does anyone have experience with the Caldwell Ballistic Precision LR 1 mile target camera system? It was reviewed on this site some years ago, and the price is good <$350).

I have used the Caldwell Target Camera system since it was introduced a couple of times each week at 600 yds with no problems. It would be nice if it had the last shot fired feature but at 600 yards where I usually shoot if I look at my tablet right after I shoot I get to see the bullet impact on the screen and I have the system take a picture of each shot. Optics Planet has it for $250.

Is Target Vision still in business?

Has anything changed in the design or function of the two cameras? Or is the “new” Longshot Camera just branding?

There is a new version that came out this year, not sure which one you have.

For what it's worth, you can get components on Ebay. I used a TX/RX and camera for under $60.00. Use my I pad for the display and it works at 600 yds without issues.
