I have had excellent luck with a Moultrie game cam. One thing I really like is the event counter still works if the camera batteries die.

I have taken close to 200 pictures this week with the cuddeback, I like it better all the time, It really opens up your picture taking, I used to set my camera up so it would'nt take any more pictures than one every 10 minutes just to save film, now I set the digital at 2 minutes and get alot of good pics that I normally would'nt get with my 35mm. It will save a pile of money in film and developing cost, IMO a digital is the way to go.

I have 5 trail cams and 3 are the stealth cam, 1 is a mouiltrie and 1 is a buckshot. The buckshot is a total piece of garbage and cost the most. the tree I had 1 stealth cam on got knocked over in a really bad storm and opened up I brought it home cleaned it up and put it back out and it worked fine. For the price you can't beat them digitals are great if you want to spend $400.00 . for me $60.00 is good enough to put on a tree

I have $69 stealthcam and it works great. I would not hesitate to buy more and spread them around. At $3.99 to develop at Walmart its super cheap and reliable. My pictures look good so I cannot imagine spending over a hundred dollars on a trailcam.

I have the cheap stealth cam model. It is well worth the $65 I paid for it. But the processing and battery are starting hurt the pocket book. SO this winter I plan on building my own digital. They are cheaper to build then to buy and much easier on the batteries.

If you take many pictures a digital will pay for itself in a matter of weeks or months, With film being about 5 bucks a roll and developing cost about 5 bucks or more per roll it don't take long, then the 35 mm I had would take a set of 4 batteries about every 2 rolls of film, with the cuddeback, I have now taken about 250 pictures, with no film or developing cost and still on my first set of batteries and they are still about 75% of full charge, With my 35mm I was paying for film and developing cost of squirrel, coon and everything else pics, now I print what I want and delete the rest, and last but sure not least is there is no waiting to see what you have.
