in need of a new trail cam
 

i need a a new cam. i had a moultrie d-40 that crapped out on me. i been looking at bushnell trophy cam i heard its great but the only problem is its 200 dollars. i would like to get one cheaper than that. im just looking for some advice. thanks

I'm gonna say no to any IR cameras, blurry nighttime shots seem to be the norm.
Comparing flash to IR it seems the flash cameras do not blur on moving animals.

I like my trophy cam, very fast trigger time, just the darn blurry night shots irritate me.

Looks like the Primos lineup has some good sub $200 cams

WGI x6c - The best $100 cam out here right now. Great battery life, the best videos I have ever seen, and a fairly quick trigger speed.

When the PIR is set to high I can pick up moving objects over 50 yards away and have the pictures to prove it.

can you post any pictures up?

I just bought two cameras one on Craigs list, leafriver 85$ and a D55IR 75$, now these are used but hey if they work its a steal, LOL I bought a brand new D55 flash camera for 100$ in August and its still at 45% battery life, AWESOME CAMERA

I have a Tasco 3 Megapixal Trail Cam.
You can get it at Wal-Mart for $50.00
This is what the pictures, and videos look like.

Evan, i agree with JMAN that the wildgame x6c is a great buy for the price and would suggest it to anyone who wants a cheaper prices IR cam. pictures are great both day and night and videos are awesome. also very compact cam just like the bushnell. only negatives are no burst mode-only 30 second delay- and trigger speed isnt the quickest- around 2 seconds. great cam overall

Try going to www.chasingame.com and look at the review section to compare tons of cams on their performance etc.............

X2 but just for quick reference, I would say some of the WGI or Primos cams are a good buy in that price-range.

I was using my x6c for security purposes
