I have a moultrie D4.0 now thought for the same price for an IR I may get one the reviews I saw looked good for a cheap IR camera but was just seeing if anyone had tried one before? I will look a little deeper into it first

I have one of the moultrie I-40 4.0 cameras. So far so good but only had it out about a week.

Default Camtrakker the original!

The camtrakker game camera is one of the originals and is still around because they are built with quality in mind and are made here in the USA!

I have one and I wouldn't trade it for any other camera. IT's fairly low cost if you figure in the 1st year of batteries you have to bue with the El-cheapo cameras and it takes much better pictures and you get more pics of the game you are chasing!

These things are the bomb with their rechargable battery packs and high resolution 10 mp images.

Wow I sound like I work for them. HAHA! I wish I could. I would like going to work every day!

Check them out atCamtrakker - Game cameras, digital game camera, film game camera, hunting camera, trail camera, scouting camera, digital research camera, film research camera, camera trap

I just picked up the Bushnell trophy cam. I havent placed it in the field yet , but I have tested it around the yard. puts out great 8.0 megapixel still images and video clips as well. It is very small in size.
see the link below, it should answer any questions you may have. The biggest downside of this trail cam is the price. It is on the expensive side.

one of the complaints with the WGI cameras is the battery life. i believe it takes 4 C batteries. a buddy of mine had modified his to run on a spring top 6v battery with a solar panel. And he loves it now. his modification was very inexpensive. On the other hand , i use 5 moultrie D-40s. that run on the 6 D cells. Moultrie recently had their solar panels with on board battery, on sale, (factory refurbs, with a 1 year warranty) for about 1/2 what a new one is. Seeing it has an onboard battery, you don't need to put any batteries in the camera. Saving money on batteries.

The Bushnell trophy cam should have 8 AAs to work up to if full capacity but will funtion on only 4 AAs. it can last up to a year with 8 AAs in the recommended flavor.
See, da Trail Cam posting in the Lodge
