I use the moltrie and i like it. i have had problems with keeping the battery charged. but i am going to get a solar panel charger for about $25 and that should take care of that problem. from what i have heard the wildview isnt a bad camera either

Don't know about the wildview but I have the gamespy 100 and it is alright a little slow trigger speed works great by a feeder selling them on ebay for $79.00 I believe.I have had mine for a year and with the rechargeable batteries I don't have a problem with them going dead. was forced to turn the flash off on mine because it it getting slower as it gets older to trigger about 5 seconds with flash off. I like the camera and I angle it up and down trails to get the most out of the slow trigger and keep flash off, the majority of my pics are during daylight it seems anyway.

Dave we have been talking about the new moultries. Why spend $100 on 2.1 MP and slower trigger speed when the new moultriehas4.0 MP,better battery life,and 1 second trigger speedat about the same cost.

The moultrie cameras are good, but there not the best. I like them becouse they are affordable and work pretty decent. Just make sure that you have the solar panel and rechargable batteries, and that you angle the camera down the trail or put some corn or deer attractent out to make them stop. Good Luck!

I have the wildview cameras and like them alot. I have purchased a 12 volt rechargable battery and it will last about a month in the warm weather. Very good cameras for the cost.

the new moultries do not really have a 1 second trigger time. the camera has a sleep mode that kicks in after only2minutes!!! after that it takes a 'couple seconds' for the camera to wake up from sleep mode. there is no great technological advancement in this camera, it's just a marketing gimmick.

Personally, I'd go with the wildview 3.0 or 4.0. With either camera you are looking at you'll want to go w/ rechargeable batteries. it will save you a lot of money.
