Cox Mon, 31 Aug 2009 01:08:36 +0000 http://trailcamerareviews.com/?p=50#comment-37 I have used 2 Moutrie IR cameras the past 3 years. They are great on battery life and picture qaulity. The one drawback is the wake up time (delay) - is over thirty seconds. This does not matter over a food source but it is bad for trail photos becuase most game passes before the pics. I think the newer models have much better wake up time Another issue is they are hard to mount. The plastic clip on releases when you try to tighten it. Another issue is that you have to scroll through the options each time you turn it on. I like a camera that stays in he same mode ubtil you manually change it. A simple on/off would be nice, I tend to us the same settings unless I move to a different spot. One of my Moutrie has a built in veiwer. As far as I am am concerned it is a wasted feature. Its too small to see any real detail. Just switch out the s chip and look at home, on with a laptop n the truck. I am waiting for a new Covert II to arrive. I will let you know how I like it. I expect it will be easier to mount becuase of its small size. I have used 2 Moutrie IR cameras the past 3 years. They are great on battery life and picture qaulity.

That is, a list describing things like Flash or IR, megapixel size, memory storage type and capacity, programmable features (burst count, video, no flash, delay, etc.), cost, battery type and so forth.

Power up time #1, Battery life #2, quality photos #3. I would test at 32 degrees at both day and night. Would be a very interesting test. Most important thing when picking out a game camera.

This year someone recommend the Remington Ghost at Dick's Sporting Goods so I got one and put it up in the same place the Moultrie was to compare them. To say I was dissapointed would be an understatement. The videos are more important to me than the stills and the Ghost had the poorest quality I've seen yet. Thinking I may have gotten a lemon I returned it to Dick's and got a new one in return. I then took it home and set it up in the backyard and discovered that either I got two lemons or they're all lemons. Ex. Starting at 5 yards I started backing away from the camera and by the time I was at 15 yards I became blurred by pixels. At 20 yards I was a "Ghost" (maybe that's why they named it that). By 25 yards I wasn't even in the picture. I got a lot of totally black videos when it was in the woods so I surmise the deer were past 25 yards when triggering the camera. Personally I would not reccommend this camera. Last year I started out with the Moultrie I40 and have been impressed with the stills and videos.
