I will say this, I have an older Spartan and have had NO ISSUES. But, I have friends with the new Ghost Cams that have had some issues. They call me just to see if it’s a Spartan thing or their actual camera. If I have a signal it works...all the time.

What does a plan for spartan run? I know a guy that sells them, but I have never heard much about them. From what I have seen, none of these manufacturers put a clear cost chart out there so you can know how much it really costs, its seems almost like a bunch of hidden fees. That is what scares me.

Trophy cam, B-16 types the yotes look like they are scalded in the pic you get one half or the other, they are close not far shots the get them moving.

Stealth cam are my favorite for deer. Best flash and trigger
Browning are the best pics and great battery life
Wildgame for coyotes. Only one out of the 4 I've tried that won't spook coyotes working a set. The others get pics of coyotes but over a set the coyotes can hear or see them and won't commit to the set. Pics are not the best
Spypoint was junk for me

I think I pay $60 a year for unlimited pics. To be honest I really don’t pay attention to it. When it’s time to pay I just have it automatically deducted.
The cool thing about cell cams or any trail cam for that matter is you can take them anywhere. I took my Spartan to Texas when I was turkey hunting on a private ranch. Got pics of deer I didn’t even know the names of, lol.

I’ve tried quite a few over the years. Best by far is the Browning Strike Force. Awesome picture quality as well as video. I bought a bushnell bone collector 10 mp camera in 2010, and it’s still going strong. I personally had bad luck with Primos and Muddy. Got a two pack of Wildgame Terra last year for $70, including batteries and SD cards, and so far they are great for the price. But my vote goes to Browning Strike Force, pricy though.

Which wildgame innovations camera do you run? Do you know anything about the shadow micro cams?
Also, which stealth cams do you run? I dont know much about any of the stealth cams at all. My dad is a bushnell trophy cam guy, hes got quite a few of the older ones, and the newer ones are junk from his experience.

Thats not as bad as I was expecting. I looked at the spypoint costs, and it from what I gather, its $10-15 a month for the unlimited plan on one of those

The 38 dollar Wildgame Terra12 has been good for me.
I've had expensive ones...not function or last

But the Wildgame series 38 to 60 have been my favorites

New this year Tactacam Reveal. You won't find any. They are sold out for the year. Don't know how long they will last but for $99 they are entry level. My first cell cam. They get better signal than my phone.
