Moultrie 800 trail Camera

[thphm]

Anyone have one and what do you think of it ?.

Best camera I own. Great pics. Trigger speed could be a little better but no complaints for the price point.

800? It's a relatively new cam specially sold to Dicks....its a black flash cam that's paired down and has limited reviews right now.

 

It's probably an OK cam long the lines of the 880 and 990. Not great, not bad.

Right. It's middle of the road. Fwiw, my other cams aren't that great.

When you are ready for more cams, pm me. We can talk.

What kind of pricing found, compared to the same feature Covert?

Not sure what you are saying. Are you asking for a comparable cam in the Covert line?

 

The 800 is a store special model. Basically it's a washed down 990 - almost all of the store specific models are not the best buys based on cost/feature. I would also call the 800 a 2013.5 model year cam. The problem is they hodge podge parts between lines and I can't say I've seen many be THAT good. The only cam I can think of is the Spypoint G4...that cam has been good for the money, but is a red IR.

 

I'd actually say it probably falls in between the MP6 Black and Black 60. Problem is, some claims by Moultrie tend to be exaggerated. Case in point...100 ft. night range. That's a bit ludicrous.

 

Again, it's probably an OK cam.

No. As I said, very leery of store specific or one-off models. Better off going with a 990 if you are a die hard Moultrie fan for the price difference - heck you can find the 990 cheaper at other places than what Dick's is selling the 800 and 900 store models for.
