BUSHNELL TRAIL SENTRY 2.1MP 11-9200
I am looking at getting one of these cameras (BUSHNELL TRAIL SENTRY 2.1MP GAME CAMERA 11-9200) and I would like to know if anyone has one and they are happy with it. It is the 2.1 mp not the 1.3 mp. Thanks for your help.

I have one and have been fairly happy with it. Bushnell actuall replaced my 2.1 Mp that I was having some difficulties with with the 3.1 model. pics below. they are somewhat grainy and the flash isn't great, but not a bad cam.

bwhunter - those are some of the best trail cam pics I've seen!
zmschillin - I think there are better cameras for the money. This isn't the best performing camera. They advertise the trigger time as real good but the camera seems to have a 'sleep mode' (even though bushnell denies it). Mine definitely fallsa sleep. Then trigger times suck!
Flash range is also terrible on these cams. and I get less then 3 weeks before my batteries die. I've taken mineout of the woods because of the batteries and the flash range. It's going to go on ebay sometime soon.
I'd look at the moultrie d40 for $100. I've been pretty vocal about my issues with it but it's strenghts are the bushnells weaknesses.
Have fun!!

BWHUNTER- I love those pics!!
i don't have any experience with the trail sentry, but i also would recommend a moultrie d40, they're in the same price range and in my opinion a great camera

You guys are right the flash isn't that great, I don't know about the moultrie d40 but I have 3 of the older 2.1 cameras and all of them have been sent back in to get fixed,and they still eat batteries in about 2 days. Here are a couple night pictures, the camera is about 20 feet from the fence.
