Well guys I just went and bought a new d40, I was interested in the capture, but i didn't want to spend that much for a camera. Just wondering what everyone thinks of there moultrie D40 pros and cons.

I've got some good pics with mine. Very clear. In "couple Nebraska Bucks" in trail cam section the 3rd pic is from the d40. The only thing I'm not to sure I like is it goes into a sleep mode. But for all I know it catches everything that goes by.

On the ranch we hunt there are about 5 of them out, I have two of them and I have never had any problems with mine but two of the other ones have had to be sent back and replaced (wouldn't flash at night). I think they are either hit or miss with that b/cI know one of those were purchased at the same time and place I bought mine (webought them together)but if you get a good one you will be happy with it, like I said I can't complain about either one of mine they have bothbeen awesome!!!! I would also recommend that if you could afford $200 go for a I-40, that camera has really impressed me......

I dont like my sleeping mode that much because it takes to long to wake up. It never gets deer that are just jogging by slowly. ( really slow ). It usually has to be in a spot where the deer are bedding down or munching on something. I would say if you want it going into a path way where deer run I would put it facing into the path so it gets the deer running straight to it. (it has some time to wake up.)
