Outdoorsman Review:

(1/3/11) The review for the X6c was provided by David M. from Ocean Springs, MS. Thanks David for this very detailed review.


After having much trouble with a competitor’s trail cams, I purchased 2 of the Wildgame Innovations X6c trail cams to give them a try. I must say, I personally am very happy with their performance.

The image quality is very good, both daytime color and nighttime IR. Daytime photos, color and clarity is very good. The nighttime IR photos are of course black and white but again, very clear. The field of view is also very good.

The motion sensor also seems to be adequate although I did have a couple deer where I only got the back half. To test it out I walked through the “trigger” area at different speeds and found that the camera operated great each time I walked through so all I can figure is that the deer was moving at a pretty good rate. I am very satisfied with the sensor.

Ease of setup and ease of use is VERY easy and understandable. This to me is one of the most important aspects. I would pay a little more for a camera that is a little easier to setup and operate.

The only negative I have found with this camera is that picture quality during that 10-15 minutes each morning and evening when it’s too dark to take a good quality color photo and too light to get a good quality IR pic….the camera seems as though that both functions may have operated during this short period for the pictures taken as the (color) pictures were very whitewashed and way overexposed to be practically undiscernable. As I said though, this happens only for about a 10-15 minute period after daylight but prior to sunup as pics before and after this period were very good.

As for oveall value, price vs. quality, I would say these cameras are very good.
