trail cams
Just wondering if i could get some opinions from members on what they consider the best trail cameras on the market. And by best I am mostly considering ease of use and quality of pictures(day and night). I have a few different kinds of digital trail cameras, both flash and infared and was wondering whos had the best luck with which cameras.

I use a Moultrie 4.0 and like it. Here is a daytime and night time pic:

Then again, not many electronic devices do work in that kind of cold. As you can see, it takes a nice wide shot. It is easy to set the settings on it as well which is nice. Nothing worse than having a bunch of little buttons to fuss with. For the price, this is not a bad game camera at all IMO. |
I have one for sale in the buy and sell section. It is home made and with one switch it runs the whole thing. CHEAP as well

I have Moultrie's and they have been the most reliable, at least for me. There are some issue's with the flash though, I have one that the flash doesn't work anymore and I've heard of other's with the same problem. I've also got some that have taken thousands of night time shots, so it's hit or miss. For me they are easy to use and the best bang for the buck.

If you want quality night and day pictures you cannot beat the homebuilts. The buck is a homebuilt with a Sony 4.1 Megapixel camera. The nightime shot is with a Sony s600. You cannot beat the flash on this unit. I do not sell any of my cameras but there are people in Alberta and Sask that build and sell great units. If you want to contact them send me a PM.
I own one stealth cam. I have had it for a number of years. It has taken thousands of pictures. Good for scouting but not quality pictures. Bulky and large external battery is a drawback. I have had four moultries and had nothing but problems with them I gave the last one away last fall. A fellow brought me his bushnell the other day to see if I could make it work. It is going back to bushnell under warranty.

Those are some great quality photos. How much do the custom built ones usually go for?

Great pictures. I use the S40 for most of mine now and love them.
