    Default Need quick advice

    My boss got a Stealth digital for Christmas. From what I remember a lot of people have had problems with them haven't they? Don't they have short battery life? Should I recommend he exchange it?

    Thanks,

    I wouldn't return it--I have had great luck with mine and actually get very good battery life with it--in warm weather I will get a good month out of the batteries. The only problem is that it can be a little picky when loading the film---other than that the 2 that I have work great!

    RETRUN THE DIGITAL STEALTH CAM.

    EATS BATTERIES

    (The 35MM mentioned above are good)

    Look at Leaf River or Cuddeback

    my bad---read it too quickly. I agree with the others--I haven't heard anything good about the Stealth Cam digital. I got a leaf river digital for Christmas--just got it out a week ago but I was so glad the wife didn't get the Stealth Cam digital.

    sorry!

    OK you guys are scaring me... my parents just got me the Stealth cam 35mm, for Christmas and should I be worried about battery life or problems? They seem to have a pretty good return policy.

    I would get rid of it and buy two or three of the $60.00 35mm Stealth cams. I have three of the cheap ones. They work great.

    Stealth 35 mm cam does not eat batteries too bad. Have had best results with energizers in ours before swithching to energizer rechargeables.

    Have not heard anyhting good about the stealth digital, think I would try and exchange it for something else if you could.
