[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5384188, member: 1409"] From an overall "best value" aspect, I'd rate the Browning brand for trail cams #1. For very specific applications, there are certain other brands with specific models I may find "better" (sometimes even a better long-term value), but most brands/models that are "cheaper" up front end up being short on features, reliability, and lasting value. One thing many do not consider is the ongoing costs of batteries, and the battery life of a specific cam, plus the "special" trips you sometimes make just to replace the batteries (as well as an SD card). Add to this how many years of life you may expect to get from a particular cam. On these issues, Browning is at the top of the heap, including most their cams being able to utilize very large capacity SD cards, meaning you have less worry about the card filling up before you revisit the cam. As to the Browning Spec Ops Elite HP5, not only can it utilize high-speed SD cards up to 512 GB (most cams cannot go above 32 GB), but with the HP5 you may be able to go year[U]s[/U] on your first set of batteries! Add to this it's feature rich reliability, and you can see how by paying just a little bit more up front, you receive much more in benefits, plus costs savings, over time. Note: The HP5 is not a cell cam, but it is a top-notch model for running video, for which you absolutely do need the ability for using SD cards larger than the 32 GB limit of so many other brands.
