Primos DPS and Plotwatcher cams can only be used as time lapse type cams and can only take daytime pics.

Bushnell can be used as either a time lapse plotwatcher or a trailcam with video, plus can take nighttime pics.

And the Bushnell is a better overall camera.

Yes it is, but what's also being missed here is that when set to time lapse mode the Bushnell no longer fuctions to take still infrared pictures at night. Instead what you get is the time lapse mode doing it's normal thing snapping pictures every few seconds at night without flash which in turn results in that part of the video playback being a huge waste of time and battery power.

Whats needed is a mode where the unit functions as time lapse by day and then switches to regular still photos at night.

According to the Bushnell Trophy Cam manual, during the time lapse mode, it will only take pics during a certain block of time (ie. 7am-9am) that you program. It should not be "snapping pics every few seconds at night without a flash". Plus, it can only be programmed to take these pics every 1 to 60 min, not every few seconds.
