Looking to get one. Need reviews and opinions. Never used one before. So, I'm needing one a dummy could operate. I don't have a smart phone or a computer at home. But do have access to a PC @ work. Looking for one that won't break the bank.
Just figure it's time to have a look and a little fun to see what I'm missing. Thanks for your help. Sarge

I just got 2 brownings and their triggers seem very sensitive (get too many pics of nothing during the day. That my total experience so far. Does your camera have a sensitivity setting on it? Auto, high and low are fairly common setting options. Sun, blowing grass and whatnot can give you nuisance triggers.

You wish to see pics that are actually viewable, then don't be cheap ! Get at least a medium priced camera, as you use it the features will come into play for you, you will be money ahead.
There is a learning curve in everything we do, you just need to figure out if you wish to enjoy what the learning will bring you, or be satisfied with not having gone thru it for what you get !

wildgame innovations for me. I have had good luck with them and they are cheap enough.

Get one good enough to know what you are getting. I started ultra cheap and then saw my buddies picture from a slightly more expensive camera. Wow I regretted that choice. Somewhere around $125 will get you a good Browning. I would go dark ops right off the bat now. Detection and trigger speEd are very important.
