There is a trail cam topic on here. But it is mostly homemade ones. If you did a search you would see Moultrie is a popular one due to its long battery life
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

Moultrie are affordable and have good battery life. There are stealthcam, which I use. It takes good pictures and has good battery life also. You can find more affordable ones in the 100 to 150 dollar range. The cuddebacks are supposed to be the best. That will be my next purchase. There trigger speed to capture a photo is supposed to be the best out of all the different cams. There are other brands also, you might want to check out cabelas' website and read their reviews or go to a sportsman warehouse and check them out.

My opinion is you cannot beat the I40 Moultrie, I have a few, the batt life is amazing, I put in batts in May and ran them till December, thousands of pics, good trigger speed, and easy to use. Much cheaper than others that I think are comparable or worse.I just cant justify spending $400 for a cam that does the same thing for $200 or cheaper if on sale.
