    In the market to buy a couple new cameras. What's everyone's opinion on the best ones at a reasonable price? That automatically excludes reconyx lol.

    There are a bunch out there. I like to check out trailcampro.com and check out their reviews. I recently bought a browning strike force for $120 and also have a covert that runs great. Primos proof cam 02 has gotten great reviews also and is right around $120 if you find a good deal

    Picked up a couple Browning Strike Force HD cameras this year and have been very happy with the picture quality and battery life for the money I spent ($125/e).

    Amazon has a Stealth Cam for $60, but I am sure it is a base model? I might get one, just because I am a base model kind of guy

    I have all Browning cams now...they are great for the $$$...my favorites are the spec ops and Strike Force, but my range ops work just fine as well.

    I'd by the Moultrie Trace all day long at $40 a pop from Academy Sports if you can find them! They take really good day pics and their night pics are on par with cams 3 times the cost from what I have seen.

    That's a great pic for a $40 cam. Wish we had Academy Sports in this neck of the country. I'd pick a few up. Great Xmas gifts too.
