What is the best boolit? :-)

Sorry, but same kind of question not meaning to be a smart a**. How much do you want to
spend, for fun or serious trophy hunting, flash OK or not, IR quality level, how much
resolution and range do you need? Video? How long unattended?

You gotta do at least a little homework to know how to ask the right question.
After you do a little window shopping and have an idea what features you might want the guys can elaborate from there.

Try the Wildgame innovations camera. 75$, Infrared flash, can do video or stills, 4MP, and takes very good pictures.

I currently have an old Moultrie that runs off 6V selaed lead acid batteries and with a solar charger, it does pretty good, but not very quick to trigger. I also have last year's model of Bushnell's TrailCam and my favorite thing about it was its size. 6"x4", really small and easy to conceal. My uncle was running both cameras on the family farm while I'm in Korea and he has gotten hooked.
He bought 2 Moutlrie D55 with the white light flash and has them running too. The pictures he sends are all pretty good.

I have a couple cheap moutries they were the cheapest i could find with infered flash. They have worked find for two years and use d cell batterys and the batterys seem to have excellent life.

I can get this for $179 and would be in the budget

I have seen some Tasco ones at Walmart for $50 and then there's the high end Reconyx game cameras for $549. So it's all a function of money.
