Hi,

I'm looking for advice on hunting cameras. The most important feature for me is the distance the sensor will pick up and the quality of the picture. I am looking at units with IR flash and 5Megpixels and above. Any suggestions as to places with good prices would be appreciated

Cheers

I have a Spypoint in the IR-C model, very good quality pictures with the 8 megpix.It is very easy to use and it is made in Canada.If I knew how to post pics I could show you some.If you go to there website you can see lots of pics.I think mine was around $400 with a rechargable battery and charger a little pricey but worth it
Hope this helps

Another very useful tool for following habits, is date and time stamp. Cuts down your time in the field :wink: DO NOT buy the cheapest and look for expandable SD slots that will take at least a 2gig card.

Check out Canadian extreme http://store.canadianextreme.com/ If they don't have what you are looking for listed, send him an email. He may be able to get it for you anyways.

Well I'll throw out the Moultrie I-40. The camera I have is 4 MP but takes decent quality pics and video (something I've yet to do but I know at least 3 people who have used the video feature). The nice thing is you don't break the bank on them as you can get them for $179 on sale occassionally at Bass Pro, otherwise they're usually around $225.

The camera takes pics up to 40 feet for sure that I know of but it is rated to 50 ft.

Here's a couple night shots from mine..

Great pics! Thanks for the info. The I-40 is an IR unit?

Just make sure you lock her up good.. I've heard way too many stories of cameras being stolen. I dont think I could sleep leaving a 400$ camera in the woods.. Good luck either way

I have just placed an order for several different models of game cameras including a Stealth Cam I-540IR, a Wildview EZ CAm, Moultrie Game Spy I-40 and Cuddleback Capture. Prices will range from about $175 - $350 once they arrive so something in every price range. Should be in by the middle of August. As well, if there is something particular you decide on I would be happy to quote you a price. Just give me a call at the store or email me.
Thanks,
Crystal

Thanks for the offer Crystal. I purchased and installed a Moultrie I-60 and am quite happy with it. If I see a need for another, I'll let you know.

Cheers
Yves
