Default Best trail camera for the money?

I am wanting to buy a trail camera but they seem to be so dang expensive. Is their a good camera for under $150? Any advice on trail cameras?
Thanks, gen.

I wasn't to keen on some of the Wildgame Innovations cameras in the beginning but according to chasingame.com they have come a long way with their cameras this year. Most of those are less than $150.00. Also the Primos cams are getting good reviews and I know that at least two of their models are in your price range. Hope this helps.

Blessings.....Pastorjim

The customer service ar Wildgame is great. I have four Wildgame cameras. My IR4 started acting up. They had me send it in and they are replacing it. For the money I have been very pleased with them. I also have a Wildview camera. I don't care for it at all. Just my opinion.

For me, it's easy to answer. The spypoint FL-A is the best for the money. It's infrared, easy to use and great pictures. You can even have it for $99 on Gander's website. Hard to beat that !!!

I own 4 2009 Bushnell trophy cams and they work great.
I did a test with a few cameras from a local archery shop and really liked the Wildgame X6C.
I bought two of them and really like them.
Dicks sports has them on sale now for $125.00

Here are a few picture and videos from the Wildgame.

I love my I-40 by Moultrie. I got it for $180 from www.americangunnery.com
I did a contact us with them and they were willing to offer me a discount code because they are a new company trying to build business. Here is the direct link to their cameras. They shipped fast.

be very very very careful with the I40, i have had nothing but bad bad bad luck with it, if its not in DIRECT SUNLITE you will only get Black and white pictures during the day ;-( in the woods that will be all you get until the leaves fall ;-( I have sent two of them back to the moultrie because they were both thesame exact thing, they are sending me an I60 now free of change because ofthis, but I am sure it will be the same exact way
