The new 07 model has clearer images. You can try doing this to fix yours - What I did- I bought a cuddeback from gander mountain one year and took it back the next year. Just tell them you lost your reciept and they gave me a new one from that current year. Otherwise you can call Cuddeback and see what they say. They usually tell you to send the camera in for repair in which your case it would be free cause it has one year warranty on it and they might be able to do something with it like put a new circuit board in. I have 2 cuddebacks right now...the older c3000 one and the expert. Next year I am going to buy the new moultrie no flash model and try that one out.
