Pros: Great pics, easy to set up
Cons: Water may leak in battery compartment. Easy fix tho.

I've been using a Cuddeback Expert on our farm in MO. So far it has worked good and produces good pics. I'm not sure on the battery life yet as I keep forgetting to write down when the batteries got changed.


The pics are clear and the color is great. The battery door took a little figuring out at first but once you change the batteries it's no problem after that.


The cam is small which helps hide it and easy to carry in the woods. The manual is easy to figure out and the menus are helpful in changing settings.


A few people reported water leaking into the batteyr compartment since it didn't have a gasket around the battery compartment door so I applied the fix that was post at Chasin Game.com. I just dabbed some RTV silicone on the upper corners of the door to prevent any water from entering the battery compartment. The cam's been through several storms and no water leaks yet.
