If I were buying another one today I'd get a primos assuming I could get the sale price.  The large size seems antiquated and obnoxious  but with the eBay bear box,  cable, and padlock I feel good enough leaving it out there.

Oh yeah, the browning has much better out of camera night time photos but using shadow recovery and exposure compensation in Lightroom made the primos cams usable enough.

Thanks for the report. I was curious about how those Brownings would work. I have one Primos 35 and it works great for me. I've had it a couple of years and have not had one issue yet, which can't be said about several other cameras I've had.

Cropping the pictures is fine but it's sometimes interesting to see the time on the pictures, plus I would've known which were Primos pics and which were from the Browning cams.

LOL, no. I didn't know he lived in Arizona.  I will have to find my game camera pics, it literally looks EXACTLY the same.  The shape of it, trees, everything.  I even had a pic of a bear in mine.  That's funny

Well regardless I thank you for not just blurting it out publicly. Very low class to burn a honey hole like that  :bdid: Lots can be transacted via private message  :tup:

Bobcat here is an example of the shadow artifacts. They didn't show up on all the pictures, but do show up on several.

LOL. Yeah there is no way my mouth would of opened had it been.  I have a problem with keeping too quiet, if that's possible.  Just eerie how exact that spot looks.  Like I said before, great pics :tup: :tup: :tup:
