    I have four of the Primos Proof cameras, really good photos and video for an affordable camera ( around $250-350 depending on model ) extremely basic to use, a retarded chimpanzee can operate them which is why I bought them. I have never had any issues with them and they have been out all of the winter and wet spring that we had.

    Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.

    I think Boar might be wanting GPRS Cams ??
    Not just observe and log Cams
    250- 350 is to much now for basic Trail Cams

    GPRS is
    I used to use the Cams that take a pic and or Vid and you go and change SD card inside it periodically and view what WAS there - not much good for security as theft be done and dusted

    Now - my GPRS Cams send me a photo (not Vid but still stores both on SD card like others) in 60-90 seconds
    They are complicated and you need not be a hot headed sort and know a bit of Putor savy
    They cost 4-500
    I have some Browning (good gear) ones that I used b4 - that cost approx 220NZ now - you can have as many as you want for 100$ each
    Very simple to use and extremely good on batt consumption (up to 8 months)

    Brother in law's cameras are Bushnell Aggressors and Moultries, of the two the Bushnell take some really good pictures and video.
