Just left the local hunting store and was concerned about the lens moving around in these two models. Got back and read on this site and saw that it was normal. I had decided to get the 560 but really don't know which model to get. What would you HCO guys do?

Myself I have no use for a viewer.I just swap cards as quick as I can and move on to the next cam.So i picked the 560.Only difference is the viewer I think. David

To me the viewers are a waste of money!

Can the viewers be used "live" to see the positioning of the cam? Ive never had trouble setting a cam, but have never set one up high and angled down. If you could view the screen while moving it around, that would be pretty cool. I know it doesnt, but if the viewer had a card reader on the side that would be cool as well. Pick up a few cards on your way to your stand and view them while waiting for mr big.

just sent my 560v in to get looked at , had it for a month or so and got pretty bad night pics., did two upgrades on it still no good, kept showing the program as V1.08 and the model as a SG570VB. hope they can straighten it out, getting pretty pissed off, . with all these companies competing against each other trying to get there products out first, they're just using us as they're guinea pigs to get the products right at our expense, not money wise but headache wise. my suggestion! get a list of names of people willing to try they're products at they're expense, until the bugs are all worked out and then put it on the market!!!!!!--( not just hco all companies)---tom
