Longshot cameras

Have many people had any of these Longshot brand cameras? I'm looking at the 100 or the 300 yard system. Which is the best value, also are they reliable? I have no experience with any type of target system. Thankyou in advance.
 
I’ve been using the Marksman at 300 yards for going on 6 years with excellent results. Recently purchased the updated model that has improved software functionality and a higher resolution camera. No issues to report with either model, neither dropped the WIFI signal unless there was a line of sight obstruction. I have not used, nor seen, the recently introduced 100 yard system.
 
Quick question that may help members give advice. What are you using the camera for? Are you trying to see bullet holes in paper targets? Want to see steel target hits? Something else?

I have the LR-3 system and it worked quite well at 500 yds and beyond. The Marksman system should be just as reliable out to to 300 yds. Only issue I had was having to ensure the camera was positioned correctly in order to get accurate focus. If I set it up right, I could see bullet holes. If I got it a little wrong, the target picture was blurry. If your goal is seeing hits on paper targets, I can’t recommend enthusiastically enough consideration of a ShotMarker e-target system instead of a camera. Priced just below the cost of the LR-3 camera system, ShotMarker is just ‘better’.

YMMV
