Amazon reviews no longer carry any weight on product quality. Fake reviews have been extremely prevalent these days.

 It's easy to buy cheap cams, set them out, get some pics and think they work great. I've done this. Then out of skepticism one time I added one of my more expensive cams to the same tree right above it and was shocked at how many animals the cheaper cam missed. Saving a few bucks is not worth losing those pics to me.

Ive done this and had the opposite results. What was considered a great cam at the time was one of the worst cold weather cams. Some of the best cams I own in cold weather were under $50

I guess it's just like the optics debate then. Some guys swear Vortex is as good as Swarovski. I'll stick with my Swaro's however.  :chuckle:

I've been using Camparks for about a year. They've been good other than nighttime pictures aren't the greatest but good enough.

 :yeah:My dad has seen a few nice bulls right above cam but haven't got them on photo or vid... so maybe that is the reason we are not getting them on cam! Thanks for sayin something about it :chuckle: :chuckle:
