Wildgame Innovations Micro 6 Red

We just posted up a review on the Wildgame Innovations Micro 6 Red infrared digital game camera here ... Wildgame Innovations Micro 6 Red. We have some sample daytime and infrared images, and a YouTube video in the review that will show you some samples of day and night videos. There are a couple of bucks in the videos, but no bruisers to brag about.
All in all, this was a pretty decent scouting camera. I have to give Wildgame Innovations a little slack on a few issues, when I consider the low cost associated with this game cam. There are some deals online for the Micro 6 Red, and you can pick this scouting camera up now for well under $100.00 and get FREE SHIPPING on it.
The one thing that you will want to take into consideration if you look at this game camera, is that there is no integrated physical security features. There is no padlock hole or cable channel for a Python cable. So if you plan to use the W6X anywhere that you would be concerned about theft, then you will want to make sure that you use a security lock box for it.
The CamLockBox company is making some of the best security lock boxes for the new small form factor game cameras.

Looking for a new game camera that comes with a price tag under $100.00? Then check out the new Wildgame Innovations IR4. This 4.0 megapixel game camera shoots still pictures, as well as 30 second video clips. It is another low cost infared digital game camera that has hit the market, and with the number of high priced game cameras on the market today, it is nice to see new low cost offerings.
The trigger speed on this camera was timed at around 2.5 - 2.8 seconds. Not bad for a $100 camera. While it might not be the best camera for a trail with passing deer, it would do just fine on a food plot, feeder, or corn pile. For use on trails, it is recommended that the IR4 be placed facing down the trail, instead of facing across it. This will give the PIR time to acquire the deer and fire the pictures or video.
The battery life is decent from the 4 C-cell batteries. This compact camera has 19 infared emitters that reach out to around 30 feet. The handy mounting eyes make it easy to attach this camera to a tree with the included bungee cords. It also has a lock hole for added security.
It has 16 MB of onboard memory, but will accept standard SDRAM memory cards for expansion. The setup and configuration is pretty easy, using the onboard LCD.
This isn't a top of the line camera when it comes to features and performance, but what do you expect for $100.00. I'd put this camera in the same class as similar low cost offerings from competitors like Wildview. If you are in the market for a cheap game camera, this one is worth a look.
