Im a first time trail camera user also. I picked up a Primos 35 from Amazon. I think it was about 80$ shipped. Ive had it up for three weeks now. 250 pics and battery life is at 99%. Picture quality is decent too!

I actually just checked it today. Heres a pic.

My $65 camera is in a homemade box, lag bolted to a tree and padlocked.  Plus it's in a place only me and the critters go...
If it was easy, everybody would be doing it.

When Bernie Madoff did it, it's called a "Ponzi Scheme"
When Government does it, it's called "Social Security"

I would say it is. I have both. The Tasco is nice for it's simplicity. But I'd take the Primos over the Tasco because of the burst mode capability. It will do a 3 shot burst, while the Tasco only takes one picture at a time. The Primos is also infrared, which had its pluses and minuses, but IMO the best thing about IR is that the batteries last longer.

If reliablity is a concern, buy from Wal Mart and get the extended 1 year warranty for an extra $6.
