I have a Covert, a few years old and cost only about a hundred new. It has been flawless and takes shots up to about 2mb. It’s small compared to most, camo rather than black, totally water and weatherproof, uses infrared flash, and best of all I can leave it out and take hundreds of pics all summer, flash and daylight, on one set of 8 AA batteries and they still have plenty of juice left to run a flashlight, etc. I’ve not seen another I like as much, but then I’m hardly a camera expert and it’s hardly top-end. But it might be worth checking out the newer models when you’re shopping. I bought my online directly from the manufacturer. I strongly advise you to avoid the really big ones I’m seeing lately, unless you’ll be carrying it no farther than your extended backyard. There’s no point in posting sample photos here since they have to be compressed so much you can’t tell anything about quality. Enjoy the search.
