I just (yesterday) bought a Bushnell Aggressor Wireless. It's been txting me photos. I sure hope it works out in the woods.

The Browning and Moultrie I bought rarely flash properly at night. They are fine sunrise to sunset. I hate the menu on the Moultrie. Not very user friendly. The menu on the Browning is very good and shows you the battery percentage very clearly. I have 2 of the Cabela's black infrared that work very well for both photos and video. The menus are very good. Just wish they showed the battery percentage. They only show a small bar on the internal screen just before going into the menu settings. Easy to miss and I don't think it is as accurate as it should be.

Here's a pic my Browning Strike Force captured a few days ago:

I have two Stealth Cam G45NGs which are relatively inexpensive cameras with good photo performance day or night but the video is poor at night. The only draw back is they tend lose the date/time settings often when powering down for removal of the SD card to download on the computer. Since they do not behave this way all of the time I imagine there is a time limit for saving the date/time settings. None of the other settings are reset, though. I especially like the auxiliary battery packs.

I've been a fan of Stealthcam after trying a few other brands with poor results. Moultree has always disappointed me and it's now a brand I wont spend another dollar on. My Stealthcam game cameras have lasted from 2 to 3 years out in the elements all year long. I just replaced my last one, which cost about a hundred bucks with another that was originally a hundred bucks, but on sale for $79. I'm very disappointed in this camera. At 10 years, at night, the pics are blurry. I've never had that problem before.

I'm going to have to get another game camera, and will follow along this thread to see what everyone else has that they like.

I'm in the same boat. I've tried Moultrie (great quality photo's, but they only last a year), Stealthcam (eat batteries and the night LED's quit working) and Bushnell (just plain junk, didn't last 6 months).

The guys on my lease started buying Wildgame Innovations. They seem to be working pretty well and they cost less than $100.

I have two Brownings(no glow) and two Bushnell infa-reds.Like them both
The Bushells are superior at night the Brownings a little better in the
day-light(quality).Run all on video.Happy with both brands.
Moultrie has been problematic,WildGames are junk.

I have had about 18 of various makes, all seem to have their own issues. Now, I usually buy cheap and lower my expectations. All I want is to know what and when something passed, do not need the HD capability, super sized mem capacity, wireless, etc. I do try to get range of flash as a priority. I also AVOID anything that takes a "C" cell battery. I agree with early post, WGI meets most of my needs, cheap enough and so far, reliable.
