I hate wild game innovations
That being said, I've tried 3 and 2 never worked past a month. I'm on my 3rd and its taking decent pics and we are just over the 30 day mark.
It was 100 dollars and came with batteries and 2 SD cards. Got it a tractor supply co. Not really many other companies making cameras under 150 anymore

I bought one this season but haven't checked it yet.

Just bought this one from amzn LINK
156$ before rebate and 126$ after. I haven't had it long enough to really recommend it but it gets good reviews.
ETA: One of the reasons I chose it was for its features.
Field scan: takes pics at a set time instead of motion only. obviously when deer are 100yrds away eating grass this can be a useful feature
Battery life: can run on 4 or 8 aa's. 8 will give a run time of one year on optimum conditions. ie, pics use much less juice than taking HD video with sound.

Currently I'm running Bushnells. I run 20 or so cameras at a time each season and the bushnells have been dependable and have a long battery life. I think they're more like $150-200 a piece.
I've heard a lot of good things about Moultrie, and cabelas recently released their own trail cams ($150) that seem to be pretty good. I don't like Wildgame Innovations and stay away from their products so I can't tell you about their cameras.

Brownings are getting great reviews. Moultries make several models in that range and are quality. Primos makes great cameras. I was reading about primos truth ultra 46 model and it was selected as camera of the year for 2013 for one of the trailcam websites. Trailcam pro maybe. They fall in your budget and are great cams.
If you buy off of chasing games website they give you a no questions asked two year warranty and 90 day return policy. No reason not to buy from them.

Does everyone hate Wildgame Innovations? I put out one of their cams last week and have yet to check it.
I hope it's not terrible

Wild games are pretty terrible from what I hear. They've got huge douches representing them.
Also a lot of people are loving coverts. Go to archerytalk and most everyone there will tell you that's their favorite.
Cuddebacks used to be great, went downhill, and now making a comeback. Hearing good things about new models. I did pick up 3 older model ambushes last week from bass pro for $80 a piece and they've worked great so far after I did firmware update.

Had my buddy check me when he was down there this am. Pretty good quality pictures. I guess we'll see how long they last.

Primos Truthcam 35 has worked well for me
Posted on 8/23/14 at 3:41 pm to Jenar Boy
I have been using the Moultrie M-80XD for a few years and they work fine (have 5 of them) but they don't make them anymore. I guess the M-880 is the new model and will give it a try. I've also tried Wildgame in the past, terrible camera.
I have a Stealth Cam that is every bit of 15years old and still works great. I tried the Stealth Core and it wouldn't take night pics.

I don't know about the quality of their cameras so i can't comment, I just personally don't like the company and owners and that's not where I want my money going. Cameras could be good for all I know.
