Aldeer.com Forums Alabama Deer Talk Aldeer Pics and Trailcams Looking to buy my first trailcam.

Has anyone had a wildgame innovations cam? I'm on a budget, so I don't want to spend more than $200. What's the best camera for the money?

I am not a big fan of wildgame innovations deer cam. I have had 2 of the 4.0 or 6.0 megapixel can't really remember which and both of them have had blank pics and not taking the number of pics i thought they should. If you could fine the extra money, this is what i would get!

You should be able to find some 2009 Bushnell Trophy Cams on Ebay for around $170...Also, a good buddy of mine just got a Moultrie M100 and he is very pleased with it...I believe it was $175

i have two x6c's and they work just fine .i like the video mode but it takes excellent pics as well. wildgame gets a bad rap sometimes but they do great for me .i think some of their cheaper models are junk and that's why they get a bad rap.i bought mine for $85 on ebay just my two cents ,good luck.

X2 on the x6c!!!

I have 2.
They take great pics nad the battery life is awesome. VERY simple to set up for a beginner, as well.

I have the WGI N6 and so far it has been great.

I've got 2 of the new M80 Moultries, love them. Great battery life. Only complaint is the lazer you use to aim it with is not strong as the old I40s. I trigger them ,then look at the pics to see if it's aimed properly. I have 3 old moultrie I 40s, only problem, I dropped one and sometimes it works, sometimes it don't. My bad . The M80s are well within your budget.

Unless Bushnell has made huge strides their cameras are crap.

I've got 3 wildview cams from academy that are $59you a piece and love them I will post pics on later tonight. I just got back from the club and have some good pictures

Bass pro told me that wildgame was the most brought back camera.

I have 2 of the X6C WI and I am happy with them. Just found some Cudde back Attack IR's for $185 TMD each and have three of those on the way plus a Primos Blackout to try out.

On the one I just bought the laser isn't concentrated and you can't see it in daylight over a couple of feet away. Are all the M80s like that?

Go to http://www.chasingame.com/index.php?id=2 for the best 2011 camera reviews you can find. For under $200 you can get a nice camera. About all companies have made some bad ones. I was surprised at the rating on the Leupold game cams. You'd think they would be top of the line but chasingame says differently. JMO

I like the picture Quality of a Cuddeback.

No doubt at all, Cuddeback expert. now that they have the new ones out now is the time to jump on the expert. you can find them for around $125 if you look online. I have had 5 over the years, 2 got stolen and 1 had to send back-but they sent me a brand new one for $50 bucks. They are the easiest to use, I just bought a Bushnell just to try it out and you need a phd to work it.

Same here . Been thinking here lately bout buying one of the new Cuddeback Attacks.

I have a Wildgame Nation N6 (red six) that works fine. The cam is also my first game cam, too. I couldn't afford an expensive game cam and the WGI was a gift to me from family. ($89. at Walmart)

I'm not experiencing the trouble that some report they are having. My battery life is fine and I'm getting good night-time and day photos. I recommend a WGI N6. The deer aren't spooking from the camera, either. I get 30-50 pics each night/day of deer, coons, crows and squirrels.

Covert has some good cams, reasonably priced and GREAT customer service.

Another option is: Cabela's has the Truth46 on sale for $99 until the 30th. Go to Bass Pro and get them to ad match, if you are interested in those.
