Default Inexpensive Trail Cam

I am looking at some of these $100 cams. Are any of them any good?

I know some folks that are very happy with the moultrie d40. Personally, I like the $200 cams, then again it would be nice to have twice as many!

I may try your Tasco. I picked up a Moultrie d40 and already sent it back. Could not get it to flash after setting it up in the back yard. Figures I would get a bad one.

Maybe I learned my lesson. May try the $200 cams.

Cabelas has the Stealth I590 on sale for 89.99, from what I have seen here, it's a decent cam.

Not knocking your new cam but.....
Just because it's 4mp and IR for $90 doesn't mean it's good. What quality of picture and trigger speed does it have?

I just got a Wildview IR for $96 and Ill admit if aint the fastest camera on the market, and its better for sittin under feeders than on trails. But it takes awesome day and night pics.
