Is there any way to secure the camera? If there is somewhere to thread a cable through it could be locked to a post, but I can't tell if there is.

There is no way to really secure the camera short of building a case for it or possible using a game camera case. It does have a standard 1/4 20 thread tripod mount on the bottom but that will probably do little for securing it. Frankly there is little one can do to secure any camera if someone wants it bad enough.

Unfortunately, the connector that locks the camera to the harness (it works well and released from the harness easily and quickly) uses the tripod mounting screw hole, and must be unscrewed to be able to mount it to a tripod. Not a very difficult task, but not as convenient as I'd prefer.

hi Christinethe tripod has a removable mount that is pretty universal with still, digital and video cameras alike. there should be a slot on the bottom of your camera where you can screw in a post. that post is attached to a mount which connects to (and is removable from) the tripod. I don't ever remove the mount from My camera. I just use the quick release and take the camera and mount. hope this helped!

I am sorry to say this but now the camera is with my friend. But there is an outlet on one side of the camera near memory slot. Please have a look at it

Most cameras have a little ring or hook on them. All you do is ....hmmm hard to explain. I'll give it a try. Put the little loop (bottom of the pic) through the ring on the camera. Loop the larger one through the small one and it's permanently attached. Did that make any sense at all?

I believe there is a strap loop on the receiver but no place for a proper lock. Only the receiver's antenna needs to be in direct sight of cam's antenna. I bury mine in some rocks 50 yards away with only the antenna poking out. I seriously doubt anyone could ever find it.

The cable has a loop on one end. You wrap the cable around something such as a table leg or something solid / permenant and feed the cable through its own loop. Camera is not blocked.

Since it's a monopod and you have to hold it somewhere to keep it steady, you might as well hold on to the camera anyway. But I would not carry it with the camera screwed on - seems risky.

Hello DorothyI do not secure the receiver to anything just hide it in a bush or in/under something. You can check the range of the unit to camera on the menu page (little triangle next to view option). I have even put the receiver in a building and it works. No line of sight needed. I have three units so far for remote site security.Hope this helps...

Thanks for your question, According to the product details, a wire is included: "The camera cable is threaded through stand for additional security." I hope this helps!

Bob, did you ever find out? I just ordered the camera and want to know the same thing! Thanks for any help.

No. The security cable will not stop entrance to memory card or on/off etc., But there is another series of lock holes from body to the cover that you open, can put a small master, or combination lock to deter entrance. Just remember there isn't any material or plastic on this camera or any camera i've seen that can keep a dishonest person from stealing things. All this will deter most random persons from messing with your stuff. Enough said. Hope this helps

You should use a hex key. I was able to tighten it by hand but it would be more secure with the key. Alternatively, You can just use the normal screw that comes with the camera. Not sure why they felt the need to change it up here because I found that the screw works just fine.

These may seem obvious but first check to make sure you have the right key for the lock and then make sure the key is all the way into the lock. It is a Master Lock and my code starts with a P. Then turn it 1/4 turn clockwise. It may take a little force to turn it. If that doesn't work, try releasing some of the tension on the cable by lifting the camera up some. If all else fails, get out the bolt cutters and cut the cable and return it as defective. Good Luck

You sure can, I did to catch a family thief taking stuff from my office, my only mistake was thinking that they wouldn't take the camera if they seen that too. I have never gotten my camera back, or the stuff that was originally stolen. So if you do, either conceal it real good, or lock it with a heavy duty lock.

Yes, you can. The strap (attaching) loops in the back are "bulged" on the top to accommodate a cable. But, here's the thing: the loops in the back are cheap plastic. I cracked one of the two loops on mine just by tightening my strap too much. So, if your thought is to secure this with a heavy metal cable and lock to prevent theft, I'd forget that idea. You'd need to put it in a strong box for that. Cheers.

So I believe that camera talks over port 1024 do you know what I'm talking about?? Reason I say that is I set one up and only opened 1024 thru the firewall. Grab the cameras ip address and perform a port scan ending your the top of your range @ 1025 cuz there are 65k+ ports. So paper clip it it before you start in case it's messed up & let me know & will see what happens, feel free to ping me
