I have owned cameras made by Cuddeback, Stealth Cam, Big Rack Trophy Products, Moultrie, Trail Timer, Recon Outdoors and Reconyx. The Reconyx cameras stand above all others in quality, batterylife, durability, etc.
The issue is price for me. I had a Moultrie stolen. The Moultrie was just over the hill from one of my Reconyx and it scared me so I sold the Reconyx cameras I had and bought 4 cheaper Moultries.
