I posted in the "all creatures great and small" section but in hindsight I think it may be better here as really it's a "gadget" question.

I've recently borrowed a cheapo trail camera from a friend and discovered that I have a badger visiting every night, say hello to Boris:



I want to buy one for myself but it seems a minefield. I would like WiFi control for setting up and viewing remotely if possible, and want good quality video and audio. I am prepared to spend as much as is necessary within reason, I want something at the top end as I am fascinated by the wildlife and want to get real high quality footage.

I would be grateful for any help and advice.

On a side note, I put dog food down for Boris but he didn't go near it. He prefers eating the fat ball and seed that falls off the bird feeders.

I’ve got a few of these- the battery lasts much longer than the trail cams even without the solar panel.

I got fed up opening up the trail cams and grabbing the sd card etc to see what had been filmed.


The quality of these is good and I can review the alarms over breakfast.
