My son bought a Primo's 35 about 6 months ago for $90.00 brand new, and it seems like a real good camera to me. As you may have read from my earlier post, I'm less than pleased with my Cuddeback IR, I'm sure I got a lemon, but they don't wish to stand behind their product. ](*,) , good luck.

Im really pleased with all my Moultries. Their not the cheapest but not the priciest either.

In the $450 price range the Reconyx 500 is an excellent True Trail camera (best trigger speed 1/5 sec).
In the $200 price range the Bushnell Trophy Cam is a good trail camera with trigger speed just above 1 sec).
If you will be placing your camera over food or water then the Moultrie line @$200 will suite you BUT they are not a True trail camera as the trigger speed is @ 3 sec.

I am not sure about Home Brew systems as far as trigger speed, range, etc.... I would like to get more info. on the trigger speed of the Sony /Yeti setup that Brett has. If the trigger speed of the Sony/Yeti is close to that of the Reconyx then I would say for $200 it is best to go with a HomeBrew.
