    Has anyone used this camera? looks like a good one for the money and seems to get decent reviews.

    I wouldn't use any of their cameras!! Just because of the their stupid ass TV show. I cannot stand the Busbice Family, a bunch of *******s IMO!

    Thanks, yeah it seems that most of the cameras are registering about a 2-2.5sec trigger speed. Would be good for scrapes and food sources im thinking. Possibly on a trail if I angle it right.

    2 to 2.5 seconds Is way slow. Like you said though It would be good for food sources and scrapes, trigger speed doesn't matter near as much then. On a trail though your probably always going to get the 2nd deer If there's 2 of them no matter on the angle unless they stop and stare at the camera.

    I have been happy with the quality of the photographs but they do have problems with their construction. The weak plastic tabs that hold the batteries in place are common and I reinforced mine before I added 6 Volt external batteries to them this past winter. You need to aim the camera straight down a lane to get more deer in the shots before they walk away. I pulled one of my cameras from the field on Wednesday because it's having technical problems that I can't seem to fix. The thing worked fine for 2.5 months this summer and then just started wigging out. I've added some pics for your use to see the quality.

    x2. They are terrible hunters who mainly hunt high fence. I'll never support them in any way

    Their camera's are HORRIBLE (POS)........ Not worth their Cheap price.
    IMO:
    I received the IR4 as a christmas present... Also said WOW, looks like a great camera.
    Right out of the package, Nothing but WHITE Pic's for this camera... Very, Very SLOW trip speed.
    I returned it to ****'s and purchased their 2MP camera (not IR)...:rant:
    Same problem.. Back it went. Took a few good Pic's but had to many white-outs during the day (yes, Batteries were new)
    Purchased a Stealth "Rougue" IR5 ($99...cabelas) and LOVE IT:hail:!
