 So I bought one Friday and tested it in the backyard this weekend and to say the least I am not pleased it say's it will activate out to 50' which is not even close more like 15-20 feet and the pics are blurry day time and night if there is any movement I guess the old saying is correct "You get what you pay for"

I know what you mean. My 5 yr old old cuddeback captures are the best and most reliable cameras I've owned. Used ones are still around $100 on eBay, but worth it imo.

I tried a stelth cam once. Once. I have a friend that has had pretty good luck with his.
Try the Wildgame Innovations Blade 6. Academy has them for $60. I am very pleased with the pics and its easy to operate. BTW - i previously ran Bushnell trophy cams. They have some nice features but both have an annoying problem. On one the date and time resets and the other shuts off when it is cold and I have to remove the batteries to reset it.

Well I think I found the problem and fixed it I bought a class 10 SD card and now the pictures are a lot better than when I had the class 4 SD card in it, I had no idea it would make that much difference....

The cheap older wild games are built well and do not fail. I have had 8 of them and got 5 yrs out of all but 1 of them. Had one of their high resolution IR ones as well it still runs 6byrs in with no problems.
Currently running Moultrie and love the pic quality but 2 or 3 of them break every year. But I love the pics and the ease of the settings.
I would not hesitate to buy either brand again

I have 4 or 5 wildgames that have been going strong for years. no problem whatsoever. they're not the best cameras in the world, but for the price, they are good.
my experience with stealth, you get what you pay for. the higher end cameras are great. the lower end ones suck.

Moultrie is the best camera for the price in my opinion. WildGame cams suck that is all

Moultrie is not the best camera, sorry, not sorry.
I want a camera that the deer never notice or pay attention too!
I noticed my Moultire was getting a lot of attention in the pictures. (deer were staring at it and even had pictures of them jumping and running)
With that said, I started messing with the camera, found out they CLICK! I've only messed with 4 brands. Cuddyback (bought two, both failed out the box!) refunded after the second one to never buy one again.
Went to a 30 dollar camera, don't remember the brand. Worked for 2 months, then quit.
Bought a 45 dollar Primo's camera, filled a 4gb card in 3 months. Still going strong after 7 months.
On to a browning camera, heard a lot of good things and I spent a little bit more money. We will see how it goes.
Wish y'all much luck on getting big buck pictures!
