    Looking to put one on my x-mas list I needed some experienced advice. I mainly want to know if and when deer are coming through. I'm not overly consernd w/ pic quality. I want to keep the cost down to $150 or less. I've just started looking and comparing, man there are a ton out there. The moultrie 5.0 outfitter and the stealh cam sniper pro are two that I have looked at but I'm not leaning towards one brand or another.

    Is IR better then a flash? I assume a flash may startle game.

    Do they all have security measures or just the reallly expensive ones?

    Any suggestions on any brand or specific camera would be a great help.

    Check some of the blogs. I think I remember several reviews over the last few months on a number of the cams.

    Covert is the company that makes the Scoutgaurd (If I am not mistaken).

    If you are not too concerned about pic quality, you could probably get 2 cams from Wildgame Innovations for the price of one of these others mentioned.
