[QUOTE="Hunter 257W, post: 5008974, member: 12277"] I started with the film cameras and don't even recall the brand but it was the same company that made the timers that used sewing thread across a deer trail to time something walking over the thread which pulled it out of the timer clock switch. Those old film cameras worked well but you were limited to only 36 shots and film, developing and batteries ran into a lot of money. Can't hardly believe I was willing to spend that much back then. I've tried several of the cheapo digitals. Wildgame Innovations and Primos being the two I recall that gave good/decent service. One of those however used C batteries and consumed 4 new batteries every 3 weeks. Fortunately somebody stole that one - being a thief , they deserve it. :) This year I saw a sale at Midway on the Browning Strike Force Explorer Trail Camera 18 MP for $99 and bought 2. I love that camera so much that I ordered another last week but paid regular price of $149. They have a sensitive trigger so you'll get every chipmunk that runs by literally but since we aren't using film that doesn't cost anything but a little time to delete some pictures. I use 32MG cards so have no problem with the cards filling up before I get back to the camera. I had one camera in the past that had video capability but they were very grainy. These Browning's have very good quality videos and the sound is good too. I should have bought 5 of them at that $99 price. [/QUOTE]
