Scouting Camera – Moultrie 5.0

Anyone have this camera? How do you like it? Dislikes?

I have the I40 & I60 (Infared Flash). I like them a lot. They do have a little slower trigger speed then Cudde’s but for the Money they are worth it IMO. When I buy another Camera it will be one of those two again. I have seen the I40 for $199.99.

I can buy 2 for the price of the Cudde.

I have the I60 Infared as well and like it. Not sure if I buy it again with the viewer. An easy swap of the memory card is a cheaper way to go. If you do buy this camera, make sure you download the latest software release off of the Moultrie Website.

Here are some pic I got this year with my Moultrie I60. They are without the latest software and have some whiteout in them. I have not had a chance to use it with the latest software download.

If you’re referring to the 5.0 cabelas branded camera, I would pass on it and get a 4.0 from wal mart. They are about the same picture quality anyhow, have an underpowered flash that causes some grainy night shots.

I got an I40 which is an infra red 4MP out of Cabelas bargain cave for $149 and its a great camera, but it spooks the deer. I don’t know if its making a noise with IR shots or if the deer can see a little bit of the ir light. My cousin was bowhunting from a stand about 20 yards from this camera and he said he saw deer leave the trail to walk around where the camera was, which gave him a chance at a very nice buck that he let go so one of his kids might get a shot during gun season, we never saw him
