Tail Feathers

I've been pretty pleased with my two Primos 48's.
One clicks noticeably but the newer one doesn't.
I just set the clicker a little further from the feeder.  Still get plenty of pics on it.
Love to hunt the King of Spring!

Check this out from Wing Supply

http://www.wingsupply.com/game-cameras-accessories/primos-truth-cam-46-5-0mp-digital-game-camera/

Can't beat $89 with free shipping if you just want a functional camera...

They also have the Moultrie M80XD (camera I just bought) for $129.  Right now it ships with a free Moultrie security box and free shipping.

Favorite pic from my Primos 48:  I did crop and zoom it a bit.  Notice the small buck on the left.

In my opinion reconyx is top of the line and the best.  They are pricey but worth every penny.

Without a doubt they are the best and I qoute, again....."worth every penny".

Thanks to everyone for all the input.  I've decided on either the Bushnell HD (IR) or the Bushnell HD MAX (Blackout IR).  Does anyone think the blackout IR is worth the price difference?

Thanks
I love golf.  It keeps a lot of people out of the turkey woods.

Ryan T.,  Reconyx is made here in Wisconsin and I found mine from a dealer on sale for $420.  I know that is steep but the first time I put it out for a week there was like 400 pics and all with deer or turks in them.  I have the hc500 model which is there less expensive cam but I know when it is out it will be rock solid with no problems.  Scoot

I like wildgame. Can get some good ones under 100 dollars and batteries last a good while in them. Takes good pictures too.

Bushnell trophy camera for me for the last few years. You order a wire from Hong Kong, buy a 6 volt battery, and 4000 pictures later you charge the battery and repeat the process.

Initial battery cost probably $25 per camera. I have run mine for 2 years on the same 2 batteries per camera. Another $15 per camera for a solar charger and you don't have to change batteries for years. Saves money, time and still get more than adequate pictures.
