    There is only one Special Ops Cam. It's the $350 one, I found the 2 I have online for $280.

    Heck
    How far away are you getting your emails from the Special Ops Cam? The only thing bad, if there is a bad thing, is what if you don't get a satelitte feed in the area your wanting to get pics from? Oh yeah ,thanks for the SD card holder option from Pelican on Amazon,just waiting to hear what the cost of shipping will be, might be to pricey then, was $36.00 for the card holder.:(

    Is that $36 in Canadian money? That's twice what I pay for them in U.S. dollars!. The cameras are cellular so they are tower based. As long as you have good GSM cell coverage in your area then they will work. I have had my cameras running here in Kansas and get the pics instantly when I have been vacationing in California.

    Art-
    I am going to sell my 2012 Covert MP6s. What would be a fair price to sell two of them for? $170 for the pair? I don't remember what I paid for them and it varies quite a bit what they go for on the internet.

    Next question, is anyone from this team interested in buying them? I used both of them for less than a month in the woods this year.

    I'd say your price of 170 bucks is fair boof. I'd sell them quickly though, it's almost time for closeout prices and I bought a couple from wing supply last February for 75 bucks a piece brand new.

    I'd bet they sell fast if you list them on this site, lots of guys like the mp6 here.

    Didn't like the MP6 boof? I ask because I don't own any. Your price seems fare to me. Eders has them for $115 new. I am going to hold out until I see what is new at the ATA show or wait for closeout prices.

    I thought they were okay cameras. I use Moultrie M-80s and Moultrie D-444s and I think they are both much better cameras. The flash, setup and picture quality was superior to my MP6s, I thought.

    My experience was day pics are better on the mp6 and night pics were better on the m-80. Gotta have the mp6 with a nice backdrop to bounce the light back. Never had a D444, hows that cam boof?

    I've bought a two pack of new D-444s for $170 on Ebay.

    They are 8 mp, 60 foot IR flash, have the 16:9 widescreen images (which is awesome about Moultries) and tell you the moon/temp/barometric info. I think they are the best cameras you can find for the money.

    The one thing I miss about the moultrie's is the widescreen.

    If u guys find close out deals at $75 like you did last year let me know. For that price I will have to give them a try and see what all the hype is about these coverts. Looking to add close to around 5 more cameras this year.

    I don't. I think that is one step above the D-444. I think if I would buy something besides the D-444 then I would just spend the $10 extra and get the M-880 instead of the D-555.

    I've got m-80xs right now. M-880 has gotta be major step up right?

    I do really like my moultries. Only complaint is slooooow customer service that I've experienced. That's where covert catches my eye.
