I've used Moultrie and Stealthcam. The newer they are the better the battery life. But the picture quality has gone down on the cheaper models.

I hate the pics my Moultrie takes.
Not as clear and crisp as I’d like.

I have had 4 moultrie 990i. 2 gen 1 2 gen 2. They all have either died on me or work for a little bit then stop taking pictures and kill the battery.

I will not buy another Moultrie camera.

On top of that I had the moultrie spin feeder. It it junk. The motor was such poor quality that the brush holders would flex in different temperatures and never work consistently.

So not only will I not buy their cameras. I wont buy any of their crap.

Right now i'm running 2 Bushnell agressors and 2 Bushnell E3 cameras. They are going strong.

I'm looking at 4 more cameras this year. I love the E3's for their battery life and detection range. Thought about getting some Browning strike forces this year to compare. We'll see.

I will have to look at the brands, but I think both are the same, Moultrie maybe, both are showing no sd card when you turn them on. One after a year or so and the other after a week. Tried different sd card, same message. Is this a common problem or am I doing something wrong? miles


Look out for number 1, don't step in number 2.

I've had pretty good luck with the Bushnell Trophy Cams. One of them has a tooth or claw hole in the front of the case from a damned bear but it still works.
Is anyone using the Spypoint brand cameras?
