Post Game Cam's, What to look for when buying.

Looking to buy some of my first game cams, wondering what i should look for before buying. Flash? IR? Shutter Speed? ETC. No idea on brands, size, resolution. HELP?!

Between me and a hunting partner we run 11 cams. I like primos he enjoys moultrIe. I wouldn't spend more than 150 because cams seem to grow legs and run away the odd time. I would go with a 5 mp IR cam. You look at reconyx and such with big price tags and you realize you could have three average cams for the price of the fancy one, a bear had its way with. I'm ok with average pics of a big animals on a few cams that I know where to hunt than excellent pics of a smaller animal because you blew the budget on one cam!

X2 on the primos, I've got two, work great for 100$, bought them online from Cabelas in the states for cheaper too.
