I love the camera. I cant wait to put it out in the woods when spring comes.. I have been using it indoors and it works great. I have even caught my cat on the table at night where she shouldnt be... We had the flash off so it was pretty dark but I was able to pick out the cat on the kitchen table.. Now I need a scat mat to keep the cat off the table at night.. I like that you can have the flash on or off.. Off you would never know it was taking pictures.. I like that you can adjust the time in between it taking pictures. Well worth the money..

I've owned several of the higher priced trail camaras & haven't found one yet that's as good as the Moultrie D-40. I currently own 2 D-40's & have had them for over 2 years with no problems. I keep my camaras in the woods 5 months a year, moving them every 2-3 weeks to scout new locations & deer movement. The higher priced camaras use batteries twice as fast as the D-40 & some have even just quit altogether. I'll be buying more D-40's very soon & recomend if your going to by a trail camera, you do the same.

 "3 cameras, 2 dead within a year and customer service is a nightmare" 2010-01-07
By SharKe (Opelika, AL)
Initially I was pleased with the Moultrie Game Spy D-40, with the exception of the cheap bungee cords that are completely inadequate for the hefty weight of the camera. Do yourself a favor and just throw them away. I opted to use a single drop-tine game camera mount (pushes into the ground) that easily allows you to make adjustments to the camera's position (height off the ground, tilt up or down, swivel left or right, etc.). But I digress...



About two months after buying my Game Spy D-40, I decided to purchase a Moultrie Game Spy I-40, and that is when I learned about Moultrie's terrible customer service. The user's manual referred me to their website for software updates that might be needed to operate the camera (some apparently had glitches). I expected to find the software update easily; instead I spent an hour searching through every link on their website and still came up empty-handed. I filled out their website's customer service form asking where I could find the software update. I never received a response. I also tried calling their customer service line only to repeatedly hear a recording telling me that due to a high volume of calls, callers should expect a long wait time. The message strongly urged the use of their website to avoid the wait. [Good luck with that.] Frustrated, I returned the I-40 to Amazon.



Because I was still pleased with my original Game Spy D-40, I decided to purchase two more from Amazon...a decision I have come to regret. A few months after purchased the first camera stopped taking photos at night. The second camera started acting up shortly thereafter, and completely stopped working after 8 months. OUT OF 3 CAMERAS, ONLY 1 IS STILL OPERATING AND THIS IS WITHIN A YEAR OF PURCHASE. I should also point out that none of these cameras were mishandled or even subject to the expected "wear and tear" most game cameras receive as the cameras were used to record wildlife in my own 1.5 A yard.



So now I'm trying to navigate Moultrie's customer service nightmare again in the hopes of getting the two non-functioning cameras repaired or replaced under the 1-year manufacturer's warranty. Note to buyers: GO TO MOULTRIE'S WEBSITE AND READ THEIR WARRANTY POLICY BEFORE BUYING!!!!! Moultrie requires you to call customer service (yes, the same line that tells you that you will be better served by their website) and describe the problem to their technicians before you can get instructions on how to proceed with any claim. The recording is nice enough to give you an estimated wait time. My latest attempt...84 minutes. Obviously I need to plan ahead and set aside a couple of hours of my time to complete this process. I'm not sure it is even worth it given that their website lists a bunch of warranty disclaimers and eligibility requirements that leads me to believe I am going to receive the same level of satisfaction with their warranty service as I have with their customer service......that is, NONE.



One thing seems clear.....Moultrie has no interest in repeat business. Rest assured, they will not be getting mine. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

 "Good product for the price" 2009-12-16
By Blaine T. Jones (Dahlonega, GA USA)
It's hard to beat this game camera for the price. But image quality leaves much to be desired, even in full daylight. But, it does what it does. I had suspected a bear was coming around and bringing down our bird feeder. Thanks to this camera I was able to confirm that - it had snapped a couple of bear pics. Since it time-stamps the pictures I noticed that the bear was right by my wife's car a mere 6 minutes before she left for work! It would be nice to have higher quality pics but for this price I suppose they're good enough.

 "Does the job." 2010-01-24
By WaterSound
Be sure to look at all the photos that have been posted.



Takes awesome day photos! I got a pic of a squirrel in mid hop. I don't seem to have a problem with animals moving too fast for the camera in the daytime.



I haven't had any issues with camera "weirding out" at dawn or dusk.



I have had it for about two months and kept it outdoors the majority of that time. Seems to handle the rain and cold alright. I had only one time where it weirded out. I checked it after a cold snap accompanied by a sleet storm. The new batteries had drained, so I replaced the batteries and let it warm up before setting it back up again. I haven't had a problem like that since. The battery life in my experience has been awesome, other than what I mentioned above.



The night photos are sometimes good and sometimes bad. If the animal is moving too fast there can be a blur. If the animal is too close (I'd say 1'-2' ) to the camera at night there is a possibility of animal/object being almost whited out. And more times than not even the best shots can have the eyes of the animal whited out almost glowing white, that doesn't bother me though. Just so you know, the night pics and video are black and white. Another side note in case it matters to someone is that the infrared "flash" glows red when activated.



Video at night, in my experience is not that great. You get 5 second clips and it is grainy, especially for shots at far distances.



Timing of the camera seems great to me. I run my hand across the sensor after I set it up, just to make sure it is working before I leave. I hear the click of the camera, in what seems, immediately. However there is a delay between shots after the first shot if you set it to 3 multi-shot mode. You do hear the "click" of the camera, but in my opinion it isn't loud at all.



The strap is a nylon adjustable one with a male/female clip. Hasn't broken on me, like some other reviews say. I do put some half hitches on it to make sure it stays secure and doesn't slide down the tree.



Access to the memory card is not great. Same as the other reviews. If you have man hands it is a little awkward and I have yet been able to remove it with gloves on.



The laser aimer works great at night. During the day it can be difficult to see. If aiming during the day i put my hand in front of the laser and walk backwards while facing the camera keeping the laser on my hand to see where the camera is pointing. Also there is not a way to hold the front cover open when you are using the laser aim. The laser can only be seen when the cover is open. So I use a stick to hold the cover up. Maybe Moultrie will put a kickstand on the cover for future models or let you laser aim with the cover down.



The motion sensor seems to have good range (distance and width).



This camera also has a handheld mode option. I haven't used it in that mode yet, but thought I'd mention it.



The view/angle of the camera lens seems to capture a lot. I have been pleased with it.

 "Great Deer Cam" 2010-01-07
By Stephen Richardson (north augusta, sc)
The Moultrie I-40 is my first deer camera. The megapixels is 4.0 which doesn't sound like much these days but the pictures come out great. It is easy to use and set up. It takes 6 "D" batteries which should last quite a while since there is not much demand for power when not taking pictures, but it is too early to tell. You can set the frequency of delay at one minute, five minutes, 20 minutes etc. I would like to have had it so that I could set a time instead of it being preset. Also there is a button on the front for using it to take pictures manually, something I don't expect to use. Bottom line, it takes great pictures of my deer that I would not be able to get otherwise.

 "good for price" 2010-01-07
By M. Tomaszewski (wisconsin)
for the price the camera works well. batteries last longer than i expected. takes thousands of pictures before batteries die. another plus is the ability to hold a four gig sd card. as others have mentioned, the slow shutter speed does give you blur if the game is moving.



ive had one big problem with the camera. after a year the color pictures during the day are all now black and white. this past season ive had thousands of pics but only a couple dozen have been in color.



even with the draw backs i still would recommend the product. i just purchased two for my friends. good price for a good camera.

 "Good camera" 2010-01-07
By LUVSNOW (Up North in MI)
We really enjoy the moon phasing on this camera. However, after being out in the woods for several months...the lcd display doesn't work all that well. It only shows about half of the screen now. The photos still turn out good...you just have to guess at the data shown on the little screen.

 "moultrie I-40 opinion" 2009-12-27
By William Fagnan (Alpine, N.Y.)
Takes good pictures and was reasonably easy to get familiar with. The SD card location is impossible to access if you have large fingers. I have to use a needle nose pliers to remove the card. Probably a tweezers would also work for that. The tree attachment setup is pretty chincy and the strap is too short for many trees. I use a small rope for attachment and in many cases place a wedge behind the camera for pointing it. Otherwise a great product at a reasonable price.
