Nothing that is any good. There are a few flash cameras that are right around $100 that do well over baited areas, but you would be disappointed with them if you were trying to use them on a trail.

If you want to go to the $200 price range the ScoutGuard 550's are a good choice IMO. They actually have a quick enough trigger time you can set them out on a trail. I've gotten coyotes, bobcats, deer, raccoons, pigs, etc. on mine. All in 5 weeks on a trail.

RE: good trailcam?

I just bought my first trailcam and wanted infrared, video, and it needed to be digital. I couldn't find anything that met those criteria for less than $200. I ended up getting the ScoutGuard 550 (via an Amazon.com link that put me through to TrailCamPro). So far, so good. It supposedly has a very long battery life, and is much smaller than other brands. It also has a faster trigger time (about 1.2 seconds).

Good luck.

If I was going to spend $100 on a trail camera right now I would get the Stealth I-590. It is right at $100 and has a really good flash range (they advertise it as 90 feet), has good battery life and takes very nice pictures. The only drawback is it's trigger time. It is pretty slow and this camera needs to be over a baited sight where the deer are going to be sticking around rather than moving down a trail.
