Just got these on Friday and setup over the weekend.
I am sure they both produce similiar quality images but the Primos wins for the "redneck proof" setup.
You know, out in the woods, no manual, no brainer setup..
3 simple color coded switches.. I like it.. I have a long IT and tech background but I can appreciate how simple and fast it is to setup.

Yes they are very simple. I have an ultra 35. I just go a new moultrie 80 and so far I like the pics much better. I will compare the two more in 2wks when I go pull the first game pics.

I have a Primos 55 and a Bushnell 8.0 HD. I think I like the Primos better also. I do think I get longer battery life out of the Bushnell though. Both are good cameras.

The only real issue I had with my Primos is the batteries corroded. My fix for that was an external battery and solar panel. No more dead batteries.

I have ditched all my broken wild game cameras. Started buying primos this year and pleased so far. My truth cam ultra 46 always smells like its Burning but no issues with taking pics. It smells Funny like a burnt speaker or something.

I am / was a primos camera fan due to the Customer service. However I had a brand new 35 and 46 give me problems a couple weeks ago, the 35 would not display date and time properly out the pack and the 46 went from taking pics to taking video on its own, no problem I will call send them back and get them taken care of they sent me a return # and a website to BUSHNELL to be returned to BUSHNELL repair department for service.

Primos was bought out by Bushnell, which is the reason it is sent to them now. Walter

and Bushnell was just bought by ATK
I am NOT a big fan of the big conglomerates like ATK and Freedom group.
Customer service always goes down as a result. I don't think I would buy a new Remington out of fear that if there was an issue it would be a nightmare to get resolved.

ATK & Freedom Group aren't together are they??? I hope not. ATK is 1 thing but Freedom Group is crap!
