Recently I was in the market for a new digital scouting camera and after much research and browsing many reviews I came to the conclusion that the Reconyx line seemed to have the features that I was looking for in a game camera. I have used dozens of different brands/models of game cameras and each one seemed to have a flaw or just performed poorly but the Reconyx reviews were great through every aspect. Trigger Speed, Photo Quality, Battery Life, Theft Prevention, ect... it was at the top of ...

Camtrakker - Unit MK-8
After talking with Dan Stoneburner the owner of camtrakker his focus will remain the same and continue to focus on The MK-8, although this unit was released in 2008 changes have been made to the unit with firmware upgrades.

2. The no flash is another reason I c...

After not getting any decent bucks on my trail cameras during the summer I was bound and determined to track some down come fall. I put my new Cuddeback Capture out in Mid-October in an area where scrapes usually open up and sure enough one did about 5 days after I put my camera out. After a few weeks of capturing photos I retrieved the memory card to see what I had. I was happy to see two really good 10 pointers, one intersting looking ...
