Next Trail Camera
« on: August 29, 2012, 09:24:00 PM »
got a spypoint for my birthday in June, luckily demoed it a few weeks.

Turns out the camera focus is off. CS at Spypoint was very helpful. 3 weeks without the camera. I'm thinking of taking it back to Cb and get something else that won't break the bank. Looking at the Covert 4 MP camera?  Any thing else to consider????

thank you

I've had good luck with the Bushnell Trophy cams.A friend who has used a lot of different ones and has several types,likes it also but says the Moultrie M80 is a little better.

I have 10 Covert cameras now, switched over from Stealth a couple of years ago and extremely happy with them.  Still got the same set of AA batteries in 4 of them from last year with over 2000 pics on them and still showing about full.  I use the 3Meg setting and the pics are amazing and very clear and do well at night also.  Very happy, satisfied customer and have had no issues so far.

I have a bushnell trophy cam 8mp and a Moultrie M80 black out. They're both nice and easy to use. The pictures on the bushnell cameras are higher quality.

Hmm. I recently bought a spypoint tiny D and have had nothing but good luck with it. Seems to me it's a great camera in the $200 range. Coverts are also tough to beat for the money. Spypoint also makes one that you can switch from IR mode to flash mode. I still prefer flash photos of deer at night.

I just got a Bushnell something or other and had pics the next morning of a momma whitetail and her twins. Great picture quality.
