Any opinions on Leaf River or Stealth Cameras?

I want to buy a couple of Cameras and have been looking at the Leaf River and Stealth ...anyone have any working experience with these cameras and what is a fair price to pay for them?

I have a Leaf River and would rather have another Moultrie or Scoutguard. My leafriver is not as user friendly and doesn't take as good as quality of a picture. I did send it back once - good customer support - however no improvement in it's performance. Just my honest 2 cents.

Forgot to reply regarding the Stealthcams. Have had multiple older 35mm Stealths with good results however the memory cards are so much more convenient than dealing with film. I also have a I-450 which I do like and get good results with - but I would recommend the separate Battery pack.

Stealths will work well for you if you are setting it up over a feeder. They have very slow trigger times for trail useage but take really nice pictures. I just bought an I590 for $100 and am happy with it so far.

The Scoutguard 550 is what you want for trail useage right now if you don't want to spend $500+ on a camera. They have great triggers and take decent pictures and great videos. They run $200. I'm very happy with mine.
