To each their own..I have tried the cheaper cameras and I am pretty sure I was missing a lot of deer because of the trigger speed. SO to me what good is a camera in the woods if you get pictures of only a fraction of the game that walks by it. I could walk by most of the time slow and it wouldn't get a picture of me. I set my cameras up on trails, not feeders. It is illegal to have food out in NY. For a feeder or mineral lick where the deer are going to stop for a minute, the cheaper models do the job for sure.
