Recommendations on a good trail camera!

Looking for the best bang for the buck on trail cameras.  Has anyone tried a few out and found a hands down favorite?  I have some good areas to place them, so I am going to jump on the boat as I see everyone elses great pics.

my 1st was a cudeback IR   easy to set up, good trigger  $200 + -     (ripped off) 

now I have two bushnells  more features, around $200- not the quality of pics I was expecting ?

I have seen some homebrew pics on this site that are very good.

Reconyx, they are probably the best by far in all ways but they are spendy.....look them up on the net

I have two of these Bushnells and hope to get them out this weekend. I bought security boxes at Cabela's for $35.

I agree with the bushnell, awesome camera!  I just put out a Moultrie D40 for the first time over a wallow and am hoping for some good results.  The Moultrie is around $100.  All the research I did said it is an Excellent camera and if you do not care if it is a flash or IR camera then it might be the way to go.

read lots of good reviews about the Bushnell Trophy cam.

I'd also recommend the new Primos Truthcam 46. I have a 35, it has a problem with the IR in heavy timber/brush areas, causes a lot of white out photos. From what I've read the 46 doesnt have this issue.

I don't think anything beats the Reconyx cams, but thats also why they're $400. or more.

One other great thing about the Bushnel cams. They use AA batteries and last a long time. You can use from 4 - 8 batteries depending on how long you plan on leaving it out.

I almost went broke putting batteries in my 2, D-40 cams. The money I'm saving in batteries alone is worth the extra $$ for the cam.

I have probably 100 pics and a few videos on my cam in about 1 month. It's loaded with 4 AA batteries and they are not showing low yet. And the pics are way better.

Something to think about.
