    Really? WOw, so many folks absolutely love their Browning Strike Forces I assumed they were everything a good cam should be.
    Of what I have used, my G42's are damn good for a low glow and reasonably priced. I'd buy another ten pack without hesitation if I could afford it and replace every one of my moultries as they poop out. The G42's don't have a spectacular night pic either but that goes along with no or low glow cameras I suppose. I don't get much blur with them. This Primos doesn't seem like an awful camera by any means. It's better than my Covert MP8 black from what I've seen out of it so far.

    My landlord gave me a pair of older Bushnells last year and one will just start taking pics nonstop until the card is full and the other one has battery issues. They took decent pics but for those older models they don't seem very reliable, of course I think the same could be said for the stealth cams of the same year models ( I think 2010 and 2011).

    yeah I thought I would love my Browning from what I read and what everyone else says. Agree that the MP8 not being impressive at all at night. During the day its great though. I want to say my Bushnells are 12 and 13 so that may of fixed a few things. I bought one around 10 and returned it within a week or two. But the newer ones I have, have been great so far with no issues and I think they just keep stepping it up every year. I might have to check out the G42 but like you said any no glow isn't going to have as good of night pictures.

    I just ordered last years model of this cam online for $99 @ wing supply. The gen2 model (this year) of the 990i is about the above price.

    I have 3 Browning StrikeForces and experience zero blur. However, I do run a lot of video

    Try changing the sensing down to Low. I had a 466 to do the same thing at a certain spot and once I changed the setting it worked fine.
