For me, it would depend on what application i was going to be using the camera for and how many acres i had available to hunt. Are you gonna be using it to watch a trail, over a scrape, or watching a feeder or some type of other bait.

Or maybe you want to just try a different camera? nothing wrong with that. I have 2 scoutguards, they take pretty good pics but IMO the pic quality isnt as good as the Cudde. The battery life however is better with the scoutguard then the Cudde. I have found that you will get at least twice as many pics with the scoutguard vs the Cudde. Another thing with the scoutguard, i have to reformat my card if i take it out of the Cudde and put it the scoutguard, no big deal really, just something you need to be aware of when using different brands of cams.

It all boils down to how involved you want to get when using different brands of cams. Maybe thats something Pastorjim can explain better then i can because he has several different brands of cams that he uses.
