Title: my primos truth cam 46 stopped working.. CRAP!
Post by: backyard bucks on September 23, 2011, 06:50:59 PM: OK.
i'm looking at getting a different camera.. looking at posts and internet the 2011 bushnell trophy cam sounds like a good choice.. since i have only had the primos (and liked it until now..) i only had it for 2 and a half months in the woods and now will not turn on just flashes a bit and shuts off. (yes i tried new batteries.. :chuckle:)
what do you guys like for cameras?
thanks
Joel

It should covered by a mfg. warranty for longer than that.

I have the the cheaper model that is just IR not black flash. I personally wouldn't spend the money on all that. You should be able to find a cam like mine for 150 or less.

Post by: Jingles on October 01, 2011, 07:04:43 PM: I've left my Cuddieback out for months at a time even in the snow and have no problems with it. Taken lots of pics just nothing that would be of interest here

I have owned dozens of cameras and occasionally you will get new one that takes a dump so it really makes a difference to have good customer service.

Post by: backyard bucks on October 07, 2011, 05:51:15 PM: thanks for the responses everyone. i think i'll just package it up and send back to them like mentioned.. i don't have the receipt but if they don't do anything for it i'm not out anymore than i already am...
better to try that than just toss it in garbage.
