[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5846842, member: 1409"] And that my friends, is the usual trade-off. For a few years, I shunned anything that wasn't true black flash, and @ half my cams are black flash (mainly for security purposes more than wildlife). However, for maybe the past 2 or 3 years, I've been please with the Browning cams that are not true black flash. I just set the flash level to "low" or "economy" mode, and still get a comparable range to true black flash, but typically with less blurring. The advantage to these "low-glow red" flash cams is you have the option for longer ranges in fields (if desired), they cost less upfront, and their battery life is longer. I obtained two GardePros last year to give a fair "testing" shake. For the money, they're certainly not bad, and do take good pics. But I have not been impressed with their programming options, initially a bit mislead that they had "advanced" field scan modes (which they do not). I've tried several brands of cams over the years. These GardePros (models I have) are one of the worst when it comes to being user friendly, i.e. a bit different than most other brands. These are the GardePro units I have, and my friends at TCP do give them overall good reviews. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.trailcampro.com/products/gardepro-t5ng[/URL] I'm just less impressed than they. Trigger speed is a bit on the slow side. And the time-lapse option is anything but [I]"advanced".[/I] [/QUOTE]
