RE: trail cam
If you want a thirty five I have an old stealth cam that still works and it did good on picts and batteries. If you have a computer I would advise digital. You will save in the long run. I have used alot of cameras but the best cheap camera I have seen is from Sportsman's Guide. It is 2.1 mega pixel with a good flash. Runs on 4 c size batteries or twelve volt addapter. I would get the twelve volt.

I would also advise you to buy a digital. The film and processing will add up over the long run if you take many pictures. A digital with a memory card will take 300 to 500 pictures. With the 35mm you are stuck paying to process every picture even if it is a stick swaying in the breeze.
If you buy a good digital you won't even buy many batteries each year.

I have the Moultrie Game Spy 100â„¢ that Wally World is selling for $98 . I added a 6 volt gel cell lantern battery I got from http://sportsmansguide.comthat was $9.95 , then a 6 volt American Hunterâ„¢ solar panel for $19.95 from http://basspro.comto get past the Game Spy's appetite for batteries . It takes shots @ 1.3 megapixels , which is satisfactory to me , and can also be used as a hand held digicam . I like the laser aiming feature of it , as well as the time/date stamping . I dislike the slow triggering , and crappy attachment strings instead of a belt , but for just under $130 it isn't a bad rig .
