Default trail cams

We have 7 trail cams between moutrie and primos truth cams. They all work and take decent photos. I think the moultrie take the cold weather better( -20). I have never tried video mode on the primos as I prefer stills. I don't spend more than what you spend because if one gets stolen its not a huge loss. The most recent one we bought was the moultrie D -65 and it takes great photos.

Canadian Tire: Bushnell trophy 8 Mpx $279 down to $111. None in Edmonton area stores but I have got a rain cheque. Ask for it on great deals.

We use the Moultries all season long and have nothing bad to say about 'em.

Good luck with that. I went there today and a worker told me that they were on sale because they were discontinued. No more will be showing up in any of their stores. I watched him on the computer and he seemed like he actually knew what he was talking about.

I picked up a couple of those units Bushnell 8MP, found one in Calgary and one in Olds in my travels.....Saved $170.00 EACH on them.

I also bought a Moultrie Picture Viewer...but it only works for pics and vids taken with a Moultrie. If anyone is interested I will sell it for $45 including the 4AAA batteries, regular $100.00. I have only opened the package and tried to use it for about 20mins.....
