Yep Moultrie I40 or D40. Put just a few more dollars with it and I think BSP has the Stealth I-450 for $129 and you get a $20 rebate and it is getting a little better review than the Moultries. Some of the Moultries are having a few whiteouts early morning and late evening. Go to Chasingame.com to see some reviews and go to the picture forum to compare pictures from the two cameras and see what some owners are saying.

Hard to beat the moultries for the price. i love the cudde's but to have one of them stolen is just asking too much. I have allready had one of the moultries stolen. I have to keep the price as reasonable as i can to afford the loss if stolen.

On warning about the I-450: many users are reporting the internal batteries go dead very quickly if the camera is taking a lot of pictures. I'm about to test one and I'll pass on my experiences.

Yeah, if I was going to buy the I450, I'd definitely go with the external battery, to get longer life.
