Does anyone have any experience with using one? I have a few regular type game cameras but I have a power line right of way that crosses my hunting property that I would like to monitor.

Pros: It's good for watching a large area all day. Basically you can watch your whole field and not depend on the deer to walk right in front of the camera.

Cons: Eats batteries. You will be putting in 4 new AA batteries every six days or so.
Can't really zoom, picture will pixelate.
If the date/time gets off it is a bear to reset. (Yes, the instructions tell you how to do it but mine will not reset)

Tried the option for awhile on my Moultrie models. It's cool but eats batteries and the images are low quality.

I think it would be good to watch a large hard to see where the animals are entering and exiting the field but it's too hard to see their tracks.

I have a new camera with the time lapse feature on it. I plan to set it overlooking a bench I want to hunt and have it take a picture every 5 minutes. I'm hoping I can see what uses the bench as a travel route without having to get close enough to set the camera off. It uses 6 D batteries so I hope that Plus a large enoguh memory card will get me atleast two weeks of operation but we will see.

That's kind of what I had planned to use it for as well. I was hoping to pattern the deer crossing our powerline.
