RE: Trail Cams
I just purchased a Bushnell Trail Sentry 2.1. After it was in the field for 2 weeks, i went to switch out the flash cards, which requires entering of a password. The camera would not accept the password that I programmed 2 weeks earlier and I was forced to take the camera home with me. Upon calling Bushnell, they said that I had to send it back to Bushnell for reprogramming. Bad news...turnaround time is 3-4 weeks and I have to send a check for $10 so they can ship it back to me. WHAT??????? I haven't had this thing in the field for 2 weeks, it's not working and I have to pay $10 for return shipping on top of the postage to get it there. That is very poor customer service. Customer service is just as important as the quality of the product and so far I'm impressed with neither.
That being said, had the camera not failed - I wouldn't know how poor their customer service is. The camera took pretty good pictures during it's 2 weeks in the field. I'd have been satisfied with it's performance if it were still working. I will say that I have a cuddy digital 3.0(the older style) and it takes more vibrant pictures and has a stronger flash than the bushnell. It should though, it cost well over 2x as much.
