My very first Wildgame can from 07 finally died this season... And several others have continued working fine... Guess it is hit or miss.
And that's true of EVERY brand of Chinese made camera. You might get a good one and you might get a lemon. The only difference between brands is the percent that are lemons.

Got two, two years ago on the WalMart closeout aisle for $20 a piece. One is working like a champ. I started noticing the other not getting any pics at the placement but will take them when I check it (yes there's deer there). Perhaps the sensor range is going bad on it????

The first WG IR4 I bought lasted about 2 seasons, it was my 1st camera ever and it was great! Since then I have bought 2 more and they are junk, I wont buy another one! I guess it is hit or miss, some have great luck and are bad! But then again I'm not spending $300 to have a camera stolen in the woods so I will stick with the cheap cameras!!

Cameras are way down in price. Other than a Reconyx or BuckeyeCam, you won't find many Chinese made cams--even the best of them--for over $250, and most of the better ones can be bought for $200 or less.
