I’m not really interested in that feature because there is no coverage for it to send anyway.

Back to basics guys just a simple (like me) camera that I can set and forget for 6 months.

So 10+ megapixel check
Energiser lithium batteries check

GPRS Cams are alot more expencive and you need to be a patient man to put up with them Re their set up and lias with Putor etc

Just buy the best Cam possible for what $$ you have to spend
But just be careful - there is crap out there
Browning - Moultree - Bushnell - Acorn - all good
Go basic 1st and upgrade later

EBay - if you can get a good shipping rate is best option (shipping has got rediculas but)
Just buy a known Brand

I used Browning's for 2 years before changing to the GPRS Scoutguard (Bollymedia) ones
G8 little cams
Used to be able to get 2 in at once via Ebay - but now with NZ$ and shipping cranked up - its not easy getting two in under the $400
My 2 best (and most exp were Moultree) but they were $200NZ compared to a Browning at 150ish
