In your experience, what’s the best game camera under $50? Planning on putting cams out on 6 community scrapes for the length of the season and will probably run them on video mode.

Muddy cameras and the cheap Walmart tasco cameras have both served me very well. I had one tasco that the video function glitched. But it may have been the sd card I was using.

Slightly over $50 now unless your a prime member but I now have two of these. You can use a live feed to your phone for aiming the camera and they go for months on the internal battery. With bluetooth, I don't have to get out of the truck to check pics. Zero complaints and they are tiny.

You can find the bushnell cellucore on sale for around that. Cellular and a set of lithium batteries will last months. Its a little slow on trigger speed but would work fine for a scrape. I got one at woods and water for $50 and last time I was in there they still had them going for that.

Best one I have bought came from Tractor Supply, Treeline brand. Just bought a 30MP camera with an 80' detection range. Comes with 8-AAA batteries, 32G SD card and a spare battery tray. I also have the same thing
in a 20MP from last year and it has been Champ. No issues at all.

I just recently purchased two GardePro cameras from Trailcam Pro.

A little more than you are talking about spending but I've been pleased with them.

Which ones did yall get? I ordered a 4 pack of the A60s and with a discount code, got them for about $75 each. I have 2 deployed at the moment, but haven’t pulled any cards yet. I’ve seen great reviews on another forum.

I second this. These things are great. Getting rid of my Tactacam X-Pro’s this year and replacing them with these. It’s not a cell cam, but that’s what makes it so great IMO. No monthly plan, and no batteries. Image quality is far superior to my Tactacams too.

i’ve had good luck w/the Primos Truth cam’s (that use AA batteries) - but I don’t leave them out long - just long enough to survey & then they’re back at the house
