Game CAMS

Digitals have come down in price considerably. I would suggest the leaf river digital. It sells for around $300. If you buy a 35 mm cam you have to consider the cost of film and processing and that can get costly. The stealth cam is cheap and it works pretty good, but it does not put both date and time at the same time, you have to chose one or the other. Mine is on time now and I keep on my calendar when I change film so I have a good idea of when the pic were taken. I really wish I would have spent the extra on the digital.

Dont be afraid to make your own. I knew nothing about electronics and made 3 cams. My two digitals only cost me about $220 each and I didnt skimp on anything. I dont know of any good cams that I would rcommend for 100 dollars. I made my own 35 mm for about 120 dollars and I didnt skimp on it either. It is better than any store bought cam. I have pics on my webshots page below. If you are on a tight budget then the homebrew is the way to go. You can go to the homebrew web sites and they sell some good ones cheap there also. If you dont want that then spend a little extra and get the Leaf River cam.

I have several friends that have them. One guy bought 10 at one time and sold them to some others around here. He wont do that again. At lease half of them had some issues. You get what you pay for in this case. I have heard alot of bad things about them on different forums also. They are cheap and one of my friends likes his second one after having to return the first one to wal-mart. He said that it does eat batteries and he gets only 60 % of his pics with something in them.
