the D55ir or a good cam. nice clear pics and great battery life. Although a lot of people put down the WGI cams, I have to say Ive had no problems with them. Have one running now in Ga. that just runs during the summer. I have another that runs 24/7/365 in NC and have had no issues with it and its on year #4 now maybe 5.heat,rain nor cold temps and snow has bothered it. Id say I got my money out of it already.Had 2 moultries that one lasted almost a hunting season and the other didn't make it a few months. Never know they all can make good or bad ones. Do research on the ones that fit your budget and pick the one that you think will give you the least trouble and best bang for your buck. Id love to have a reconx just way out of my budget. Good luck on your selection and take a pick of a monster buck that you will get a chance at this season. :rock_on

I switched mine over to 3 fast shots and starting getting the images I thought I was missing.

My biggest gripe with the WGI cams are the night time pictures. It seems as the batteries get weaker, the flash range gets shorter and narrower, finally turning all black. I just pulled one out last weekend, and every night picture I had to lighten it all the way in editor just to see what kind of animal was in the picture. And that's only 20' from my feeder.
With my D55IR, the last night picture will look just like the first one on a set of batteries. I also have an M80, but have had sporadic issues with it. I have it set in hybrid mode this time and we will see how that works

I like the 55ir also. The 2 WGI cameras I owned (for all of 2 weeks lol) are the worst ever.
