My buddy got some cheapie $70 cameras that took a nice picture of a 150' s, 160' s deer. The key is if you have time to develop the film, or have to see it then. If you have to see it the minute you check it, spend the extra to get a digital. BE SURE TO GET ONE THAT HAS A GOOD DELAY, ESPECIALLY IF YOU SET IT UP AT A BAIT SITE. SHORT DELAYS WILL LEAD TO A DOE USING UP ALL YOUR FILM!
