Cheap trail camera recommendations?


Elwood

Recommended Posts

I know cheap isn't the best option, but I'm not spending £££'s for someone to steal it.

 

Can anyone recommend a cheap trail camera that will takes reasonable quality photos at night. I'm not bothered about video or SMS messaging, I just need something that can identify a fox size animal and give a time.

 

£100 or less

I have just bought a Little Acorn the 5210 (basic version). Got it off Amazon for £108. You can get them cheeper, but beware there are a lot of snide ones out there. I had exactly the same needs and did not need SMS/email etc. Bought as a friend has one, have seen the pictures they take and they do the job. You need to buy batteries obviously I bought 8 recharagable NiMh for £20.00

My shooting buddy has got one of them and it works perfectly well, he left it in the woods for two weeks and it took plenty of daytime and night pics, its probably the cheapest around because if it wasnt he would not have bought it, he hates spending money he does not need to

I've got two cheapies from lidl to use, where there is a chance of losing em and they work just fine, do what they say they will do

 

I do also have the spy point HD12. Which is fantastic, video and still, crisp sharp videos, but comes at an awesome price

 

Both do the job, you'll probably have to change the cheapies more regularly if you use them a lot, but won't cry so much when they're lifted

 

If you're not using em every week get a lidl one,
