I would stay away from the cuddyback after hearing all the problems they have had with them. Not saying they are not a good camera but it has to be ideal circumstances like no rain, no bugs, no cold, 75 degree temps. Just kidding but after doing a lot of reading and research I went with the Moultrie IR40 and WOW the battery life and picture quality are great. And for the money (around 219) its half the price of a lot of other cameras. I have heard and read a lot of good things about the stealth 1450 to but have not got to try one out yet. Another good website is chasingame.com . They do all kind of trigger testing, flash range, battery life and many other tests to give people an idea of what cameras will do.
