I know some of the real cheap ones go through batteries like crazy so I will probably stay away from them, but like to hear from others that have used a few cams and the questions, concerns they have of each.

Thanks


High dollar, but worth it in the long run is the Reconyx camera. The HC600 is fantastic. A set of 12AA Lithiums will take 20,000 pics or more depending on settings. Fast trigger speed, durable units that won't crap out in a year or two. Consider it an investment. Generally, the only naysayers are those that have never owned one.


Ive had some of all of them and this year got my first Reconyx 600. Ill be buying another new Reconyx soon. Fantastic camera. FYI, Leopold camera is garbage but the little card viewer is great. I also have a Bushnell that is adequate.
