I have the 230ir and i love this camera!! The only downfall to it is that it only takes black and white pics!! As for trigger speed, it is alright but i wouldsugest putting some type of mineral out in front of the camera!! I get over 200 pics a week and about 5-8 of the pics are no shots!! This is a good camera that takes qaulity picks if the black and white doesn't bother you!
