which cameras are "expendable" [won't tear your heart out, if they are stolen]; yet still function well-enough?

Thanks.

x2. These work fine for atleast 2 years. Mine hasn't gave out after 2 years. Fair pics for the price.

I have Stealthcam that doesn't have a noticeable flash, black flash , I got at Walmart for about $100.
Camofire.com has trail cam Tuesdays most for the year for cheap ones.

All of mine should be called Wind cameras, rather than Game cameras.

The pictures are far more valuable than the cameras. Buy good cameras and secure them.

wild game terra 12 Never look back. Great pics and you can get them on sale for 39 bucks. I have 14 of them. My first one from 2010 stopped flash at night this year , But I bet it has taken OVER 50,000 pics in 13 seasons. That number is probably low. (3800) per year.

Sounds like a lot of wasted time having to look at all those pics?
