I’m not quite sure what the fascination is with strapping cameras to trees and letting them take photos autonomously, but I’m willing to learn. This Spy Point IR-C is an 8 megapixel autonomous game camera with an IR motion detector built-in. Any thing that pops in front of it will fill the full blast of it’s 48 LED flash, and it can shoot colour stills during the day, or B/W stills at night. It can also shoot VGA .avi movies.

There’s a built-in screen so you can check your card before you remove it, it takes up to 8GB SD/HC cards and you can program the sensitivity of the motion detector from 5′ to 45′. US$349.95

Spypoint Game Cameras have several things going for them. They have a wide detection zone, recover quickly, are extremely easy to set-up, take great night photos and take high quality photos.
