Cuddelink IR vs Black Flash

[HoosierHunter07]

Sorry if this has already been covered. I'm planning to get my first cuddelink setup. I'm having a hard time choosing between IR and black flash. I know IR has better quality pics, but I'm mostly interested in putting these on coyote sets. I've had good luck with black flash not spooking coyotes with other brands of cameras. Does anyone have any experience with the cuddelinks IR, specifically on coyotes? Is the quality of pics drastically different?

Thanks

My 2 cents says it seems like the IR cameras will illuminate a bigger area at a farther distance. How far do you plan to put the cameras from your sets?

I am running L cameras with both IR and BF.
The top picture is IR. The bottom is BF. For fields and pictures over 50’ I would go with IR.
Note: These are screenshots of what is sent to me. I have another BF on “full size” (what you would get from the SD card) and it is much clearer, so if you need more detail, you can run 20% of your cameras on “full size.”

Thanks a lot. This is a ton of help. 95% of my cameras will be in hardwoods. I think the black flash should be fine.
