No screen for review or set up. Doesn't take rechargeables. Can't do both video AND stills at the same time. Can't choose resolution other than high or low. Cams costing half as much out preform it in every way. 66/100 is very generous.

What is a good overall Trail camera to buy?

My 42i & 32i cams take good daytime photos, but night shots lack illumination as stated, and most night shots are grainy photos. Daytime and low-light forest photos are good quality and battery life is outstanding in those locations. No info on video yet.

Poor instructions. Video mode doesn't work most of the time. Poor battery life with video mode.

Junk. In single shot mode, it only lasted a month and, at around 100 pics, stopped working when the batteries were at 50%. Consistently malfunctions and then you have to pull a battery to reset it - and then you get to reprogram it again...
