Default GameVu Trail camera???

Anyone using the GameVu Trail camera and is it worth the money, any problems with it??? I've got a CamTrakker and it's great but I'm considering getting another system that I wouldn't have to get the film developed with.

I got one a couple years ago. Had a horrible time with it. It would take good pics when set out in an open well lit area but took horrible pics when set up in the woods. Yeah, it's not supposed to take quality pics, only good enough to identify whats coming thru but we were not able to tell what was in the pic 90% of the time, even when viewing the pics on a 20" Monitor. I got tired of guessing if this or that was part of a deer. I sent it back to the company, they sent me another and it was the same thing all over again. There slogan is "No Film, No Flash" which is very true. After my experience I added to the slogan, "No Picture", which is also very true from my own experience. Maybe someone else has a better experience.

Thanks for the info!!! Guess I'll look for something else, any bad news is bad news when you're spending $400.00. The CamTrakker has been flawless in operation, just don't set it towards the sun in my findings.
