What's the best infrared trail cam?
 
Looking to get one soon, but not sure which to get. I have a couple cuddebacks now and like them a lot. But I also like the idea of the cam taking pics in groups of less than a minute apart like some of the other models offer. However, none of them will give an approximate trigger speed like the cuddebacks will. I've had a slow one(Leaf River) and hated it.

Bushnell and Moultrie both have several infrared models available, extending all the way to a 6.0 MP model.

The ne wMoultrie IRs are looking like they may be a strong contender this year. Strong flash, clear pics, color day, B&W night and around $200 to boot (for the 4MP unit). They have a 4MP model & a 6MP model available.

welll I have a leaf river IR and I love it, mine does not seem to be slow, i dont have many pics that are of deers rumps, I think alot of it is camera placement. The only thing that i would like it to be better at is the color in the daytime photos are a little off but as long as i can see the deer and how big it is i dont need anything else. I would recommend it for 300 before the 500 bucks on a cuddeback and then all the mounting hardware. 600.00 just doesnt seem right.

Swamp Ghost is a great cam, the guy builds them using homebrew technology, you will not be disappointed in one of them. I have several that are built basically the same wayand with the same components as his, they work well and I can guarantee you his customer service won't leave you hangin'.

I have also heard the Recon is a good IR cam for the money ($300).

Chasin' Game used to have a good independant survey of the production model game camsout there, I would definitely look at what they have to say before I bought one.

FYW upload your pics to Photobucket.com and then post them in your post.
