I have the PC800. Warranty is two years. Parts inside the camera are supposed to be more weather resistant. You can infinitely select the settings on triggers, delay, delay between triggers, where the 500 you can't. Yes, like you said the lighting is better and has a longer range. And it's only available through Reconyx and you can customize some of the features, like the lens and stuff like that.

I like it and the camera if you don't care about the IR flash is the best out there in my opinion.

I would look into the PC800. It has a 75 foot flash range I believe. The HC600 only has a 50 foot range.

THANKS GUYS. I HEARD TOO MUCH ABOUT POOR NIGHT PICTS ON THE LESSER COSTING CAMERAS. I KNOW THAT ONE IS LOW GLOW AND ONE IS THE NO GLOW.,..I BELIEVE THE PC800 IS LOW AND I WILL LIVE WITH THAT. AND IF I SEE MYSELF SPENDING $450 FOR ONE, MAY AS WELL GET THE PC FOR $550. THANKS AGAIN.
