What about a bear?

Actually the result is in. After about 2-3 weeks of being out I'm of the mind ya all save your money. I'm getting about 1/3rd of the pictures that trip. The other 2/3rds are either completely black or white or missed the deer completely from slow trigger speeds. I've come to the determination that it's really only good for setting over fields or places with food sources or scrapes, etc... Some place where the deer will hang out for a bit.

It detects movement quick enough, but the "wake-up" time is too slow. Definately not the camera to be putting on game trails deep in the woods, unless you're point up or down the trail.

They work to a point, but they are limited. I've had my two in all different kinds of scenarios. They work in some, but not all set ups. My Moultree is rock solid in any set-up. I'll pay the extra $50 for that alone.

By the way, here's that same bear about a mile away and 4 days later on my property, taken by the Moultree.
