Cuddeback zoom camera

[JustDoIt]

Does anyone have experience with the Cuddeback zoom camera? Can’t find a review of it. Wondering why I wouldn’t put all Zooms in instead of a mix of the others.

There are lots of camera options out there. Which camera all depends on you objectives. In my case, my objective was collecting data for QDM decisions. I could not afford the data loss associated with lower end cameras. I needed cameras that were reliable and could run unattended for a year or more. My camera network is over 8 years old now and still running great. It runs 24/7/365 with solar panels and only needs the batteries changed every year or so. It is old buy proven and reliable technology.

Folks who just want to know what is out there can get away with less expensive cams that don't meet the reliability or trigger requirements I needed.
