I use the Moultrie d-40. Inexpensive and decent pics.

Check out www.chasingame.com  they have alot of reviews.

My next cam will be the Scoutguard 550.

Im looking to get one up to scout an area before late buck, I know its late in the season to do that but originally a buddy of mine was supposed to show me the ropes hunting but that didn't work out to well. I've been reading the reviews on the moultrie and it seems for the price its a good camera. A lot of negative reviews about it but for 79 bucks sounds good to me?
Happy Hunting :)

WashBCBook, I looked at the time required, the camera needed, box, external power supply, Infra detector. Better flash... and such, it just didn't look like I could build one for less than $100.

D-40 is a good cam, I've got an extra one I will make you a good deal on if you are interested.
