Can't say I've ever heard anything good about Stealth Cam. But then, I haven't heard anything bad either.  :dunno:

Seems I just don't ever see much on the net on Stealth Cam. I'd be leery since they don't seem to be very popular.

When I get a chance I'll look and see if there's a review over on chasingame.com

I don't know a lot about trail cameras but I know that Jim Shockey endorses them.. But that really dos not mean anything..

I've had nothing but bad luck with stealth cams.
One I bought stopped working within a week and another wouldn't even turn on right out of the box!

Seems like I've read of a lot of problems with Stealthcams.  They aren't very reliable.  I've had a Wildgame Innovations 3mp infrared that's on it's 2nd season.  Paid $65 with SD Card and takes great pics.

Well thats all I needed to know, If a professional hunter does not like them I am sold.
One thing to think about though is Costco takes anything back so if there is a problem(EVER) take it back :chuckle:

That is a good point. It might be worth trying one just because you can always take it back to Costco and get your money back.

Crazy some guys have bad luck with Stealth Cams. So far outta all the different cameras we have tried the Jim Shockey Stealth cam has been the best hands down. Only downfall is they require 4 C batteries and are a little bulky. Always performed in  freezing cold temps, easy operation, great pics.

I see they have it online also, for $99.99, shipping included. However, I don't think the batteries are included. They also have a WGI cam online for the same price.

Liljozie and I use stealth cams, had them up in the woods for the past couple of months and have worked just fine  :tup: Not saying I wouldnt expect something to go wrong by the looks of other comments though. I payed 100 online for mine and it takes good pics, checking it tomorrow morning I will post pictures once I get back.

Guess I should have put the disclaimer: Your mileage may vary.  :chuckle:  I think if you get a good electronic ANYTHING, you are lucky.  i'm always amazed when i get something that works these days!
