IL-Cornfed is right, the Reconyx is by far superior to anything else out there if you have the money. I don't think I would buy a Cuddeback IR. The night pics I've seen from those are not very good. The Cuddeback capture's pics are great but not the capture IR. I don't know what you have to spend but IMO there are several good cameras in the $200 range. ie Moultrie I-40, Cuddeback Capture, and the Bushnell Trophycam. But if you do have between 5 and $600, then the Reconyx is definately the best cam out there. Whatever you end up buying, just enjoy it for what it is, a great hobby!
