    Yes Jim. But after reading this, I am not sure about getting the xt (2012), or the the regular M80 from last year.

    And to add more to think about, I have thought about doing another S600! Oh what to do, what to do? My original plan was to get the M80 and just use it as a Video cam........

    That's all I've been using my M80 for. That's what I had in mind for it when I got it. If I had it to do over again, I think I might have went with the Stealthcam Archers Choice.

    I couldnt remember what he told me so i called him and he said 147. His has the update done (i dont remember what that was supposed to fix) I owned an m 80x also and i got rid of it for the same reason. I tried eneloops, lithiums and alkalines, all took unexceptable picture amounts. It did do good in short sleeve weather though which does me no good.....I've got my eye on that DLC black flash but im waiting for the specs to come out.
