OhioNovice: Lots of good reports on the Moultrie M80. I have 2 of the M100 which is a higher versersion of the M80. When I purchased mine, there were no M80 in stock at the dealer. Moultrie cameras, when set to video take a picture first, then the video. The field of view in the video is narrower than in the picture. Moultrie said this is how it down loads. What you get in the picture is sometimes missed in the video due to delay. If you are permitted to set up over baits, this may not be a problem. Moultrie is limited to 10 second night video. Moultrie offers a one year manufactures warranty.
I have 7 of the 2009 model Bushnell Trophy Trail camera. When set to video, thats all it takes. Bushnell offers a two year manufactures warranty.
Overall both brands of cameras have given good service and both companies have given me good customer service when requiring more information or asking questions.
One thing I would suggest: whatever camera you choose, go to one that uses AA batteries. These cameras are smaller and easier to conceal. If you live in a cold weather area, one can use Lithium Ultimate batteries. These are high voltage, testing 1.79 to 1.83 volt fresh out of the package, tested with a digital meter. Another good battery is the Copper Top Duracell which tests 1.5 to 1.6 volt. Good luck in your choice.
