I have been researching about thecuddeback capture (flash) because I want another camera and I like what I see, however.... I have heard a lot of good thingsandalso a lotof bad things about it, especiallyconcerning night pics. I would like to know if anyone knows ifcuddeback has resolved any of these issues, or what problems (or lack of problems) you capture owners have had. I like the quality of the pics I have seen, but with any camera I understand some people are going to be really happy and some are going to have issues.. I guess I'm just looking for your thoughts on this cam.

Thanks for any info.

I've had 2 going for about a year now. All of my water cam pics that i have posted here are taken using the Capture flash. i havent had any problems with them, they take alot of pics on a set of batteries and for a 200.00 cam i think its tough to beat. I would'nt hesitate to buy another.

My capture has been great so far. I have had no trouble with night time pics with it only bad part I've had is when a deer is walking during the day you sometimes get a blurry picture. Otherwise it gets an A+

Adam,

I don't have a cuddeback but from everything I've seen and read, avoid the Capture IR. I've seen some night time pics from the IR and sometimes they are barely recognizable. I think the pics on the regular Capture are great though.

x2! Agree.

So far i am pleased with my capture flash. The batteries havnt died yet, and it takes super clear pictures. The downsides i have noticed are a yellow tint from the flash, some daytime motion blur and it sometimes has problems in the shadows. Other then that, it performs steller and has an awesome trigger speed.

Thank you for all the replies. That is what I wanted to hear, it looks like I will have a Capture in the near future.Having an obsession withtrail cams sure does lighten the wallet..

Caleb-- great pics,that picture of the squirrel jumping would have probably turned out extremely blurry on my moultries.. I think I have made my decision.

Thanks again for the input everyone

"I bought this camera because all you hear about is Cuddeback. I have 3 Moultrie D-40 4.0 cameras that I bought for $69.94 not $199.99 like the cuddeback. I set the Moultrie and the Cuddeback on the same tree looking in the same direction for 3 days, the Moultrie had 99 pictures the cuddeback had 13. when the cuddeback does take a picture the trigger speed is so slow the anamal that set it off is not in the picture. I am returning this camera and buying 3 more moultrie cameras for $10 more than the price of one Cuddeback."

This is one of the bad reviews on basspro's site, andthe reasonwhy I was scared about dropping 2 hundred bucks on one cam. Call me cheap (I kind of have to be right now) but price was the main reason I buy moultrie d-40's. HOWEVER, I love the moultries most of the time but HATE blurry pictures.
Did this person just get a bad cam?? I know this happens, what are your thoughts. I am still going to get a capture because the majority of reviews are good. I guess there arejust batches bad cams around??

just make sure you buy from a dealer with a good rep and you wont have to worry about it.
