the Sportsmans Guide has them on sale for 98.97 and I've got a 10.00 coupon. Anybody heard much about them ? I thought I'd like to try the black flash. I'm not really impressed with the red lights on the IR

I did not put in the pics, but heres the run down on the cam, it appears to be part of a complete system for sending pics to your pc or phone.

Moultrie I45 Review

Pro's

Improved Trigger Speed

Con's

Slow Recovery Time
Limited detection range
Poor quality night photos
Detection range exceeds flash range



The Camera Itself

The Moultrie I45 has a much quicker trigger speed than its predecessor, the Moultrie I40. The detection zone also seems to have been widened, but still not as wide as a Reconyx or Bushnell. The Moultrie I45 is relatively user-friendly with easy setup, good battery location and easy access to the SD card.

However, the I45 still has a slow 60 second recovery time, limited detection range, average battery life and poor night pictures. The camera itself is a bit underwhelming. In multiple tests, the I45's detection circuitry is a bit inconsistent as you can see in the 2009 Trail Camera Shootout.

The best thing about the Moultrie I45 is that you can buy a modem, purchase a moultrie game management system package, and have every picture the camera takes sent directly to your computer. This is the real strength of the I45. Keep reading to learn more about the Moultrie Game Management System.

How does the Moultrie Game Management System Work?


The Moultrie I45 is a Cellular Camera that, when hooked up to a Moultrie Game Connect Modem, will send pictures to an online account. With this activated, you can view the pictures your camera is taking from anywhere that has internet service. Lets look at this more in depth...

What you need...

Moultrie I45
Moultrie Game Spy Modem
Moultrie Management Package

The first two are the easy part. You can buy both the camera and the modem here at TrailCamPro. The Moultrie Game Management Package must be purchased at www.moultriegamemanagement.com.

The plans range from $29.99 a month to $99.99 a month. The higher the plan, the more pictures are included. Also, the amount of pictures included in each plan is dependent on the resolution. The higher the resolution, the lower number of pictures per plan. Here are the different packages offered...

Keep in mind, each camera you own has to have its own package


The Cell Phone coverage is through At&T and can be found here -

So how do you view your pictures?

Once you have purchased a Moultrie I45 and modem, created an account, and paid for a hosting package; you may login to view the pictures that are being taken.

The website is really the best part of this entire system. You have several things to play with. The most obvious being the game pictures themselves. Every picture that the I45 takes, will be sent to your account. It will be the first page (inbox) you see when you log on. Click any picture to enlarge. Here is a screenshot from the inbox...

Picture Inbox

You can also create galleries and albums based on the different pictures the I45 has taken.

There is also a map to view where the camera is located. Here are two screenshots of that.

Aerial Map
Topographic Map

One of the best features of the website/camera is that you can change the camera settings with a couple clicks of your mouse. You can actually change your camera's settings from your computer! Here is a picture of that...

Changing the Moultrie I45's Settings from your computer

Click "Cameras" and then "status" to view the status of your camera from your computer as well. Check battery levels, memory storage, last activity, even data transfer! Here is a screenshot of the Camera Status...

Conclusion


The Upside: As you can see, the website is incredible, but very expensive. The website is not only loaded with features, but also very user-friendly. In my opinion, this is the future of the game camera industry. Being able to change the camera settings while also viewing how much battery life is left, is simply awesome. There is nothing else out there that is like this. I really believe this is the beginning of a new era of how we not only use trail cameras, but also how we review them. I give the website an A+ for usability, design and options.

The Downside: Plain and simple, the camera itself is a let-down. The recovery time is still a slow 60 seconds, the night pictures are poor in quality, and the cameras detection capabilities are limited and inconsistent. I am impressed that they have a much quicker trigger speed (1.5 seconds) than the older Moultrie models. They also widened the detection zone a little. However, the camera itself disappoints especially when compared to some of the other current models (Bushnell Trophy Cam, Reconyx cameras).

Overall, this is the best game camera we have tested that uses a cellular service to send pictures to your computer. If price is not an issue, this system will work and work well for you. While the camera itself is underwhelming, the moultrie game management website goes above and beyond. It truly is ahead of its time.

Thanks Final. Although I'm not sure how up to date some of that info is. It would be nice to have pics sent right to the computer but, I'm just interested in having the black flash. I'm thinking, if I can get that camera for 90 bucks, it might be worth a try.

Well, I ordered it. I almost talked myself into getting the M-80 black flash but decided to save the extra 100 bucks.

Nice, keep us informed when you get the cam as to how it works.
