I have Moultries (1) IR 40, (2)IR55 all great on batteries good pic's and video, (2) Moultrie M-100's great pic's and video,but they loves batteries, (4) Bushnell Trail Cams great pic's, videos and great on batteries. Had one of the Bushnell's go to rapid shot with pink daytime photos, sent back to Bushnell, received a brand new camera all said in less than three weeks. Bushnell also gave me 45% off of any of their products for my trouble. Sometimes, great deals on cams on ebay

I would recommend bushnell cameras... I recently purchased a bushnell and just from playing with it in ny yard to acclimate myself to the cameras setting the pics are excellent, trigger speed is decent, and it has multiple settings for both camera and video.

Last week I purchased three cameras to use and test in search for what works. After much review of trail cam test results on trigger speed and recovery time I was torn between Bushnell and DLC. I wanted to try at least one cam that would text pics to my phone and I was liking the $10 a month charge DLC offered. Much better than what I was paying for Moultries service.
The Reconyx Pc 800 was a selection also. Along with energizer rechargeable batteries.
The testing has begun!

This site is awesome
Check out this site for all your trail cam info: TrailCamPro.com
It is a fantastic site for anybody looking to buy a trailcam.
With that said, I too am looking to buy a trail cam for the first time this year and I believe I have settled for the moultrie IR55, budsgunshop has them online for $95 about $110 taxed and delivered....give or take a little. I cant find them much cheaper than that.

I can't say I've tried every cam on the market but I got 2 of these last year and am very impressed. Paid $110 each. The battery life is awesome using lithium batteries. Picture quality is good and the night IR really lights up the night. When I buy cams the two main things i look for are battery life and night range. This m80 happens to be great in both areas. I've been wanting to try other cams but have a hard time switching when the M80's have not failed me yet. Good luck

I'm with GameChaser on this one, I have had very good luck with Bushnell and the DLC Covert cameras. I'm the type that tries to find the best quality camera for the lowest cost. I've had very good luck with the Bushnells IR's that use AA's in the past, and I bought a DLC Covert Reveal (white flash and also uses AA's) 5MP, loved it, so a few months later bought the DLC Covert Deuce with white flash and IR in one camera option, also love it. Now looking to get the new DLC Covert Reveal 8.0 MP. With tax and shipping never paid over $150 for the DLC Coverts.
I've used Moultrie for years with great success, and like the white flash rather than the IR (personal preference to color photos) but the only downfall was using D-Cell batteries. They now have the small IR cameras that use AA's and I have friends that say they work great.
I've also used Tasco, WildGame, Stealth, LeafRiver, CuddeBack, and some others (would not recomend any of these), but my favorite is the DLC Covert Deuce. 8 AA batties lasted months (taking white flash photos, set to go off every minute)
