Check out these links: http://www.chasingame.com and http://www.trailcampro.com for reviews. Many camera brands, if the animal is close at night or faster moving, create a blur. The WildView Ez Cam are very hard on batteries. I suggest spending $150 to $200 for a decent camera. Cheaper cameras have cheaper, poor quality parts. Another suggestion, what ever camera you choose, purchase good quality batteries.
View some of the pictures and or videos submitted by members on various trail camera forums. If you find something you would be happy with, as a rule the members would be happy to help with any questions you may have.
Bushnell offers a two year manufacture warranty. Most others only offer one year. Many dealers only offer up to 90 days.
Some good buys can be had on EBay. As a word of caution, if the EBay seller isn't an authorized dealer by the manufacture, there is no warranty. Good luck in your choice.

The little acorn is awesome, very reliable, great battery life, trigger speed and pics are great. I just posted some nice bucks in this section if you want to look at pics. They run around $190. Scoot

Of the cheaper cams I've had wildgame, stealth cam, and primos. Primos has without a doubt been the most reliable for me.
