What’s a good point and shoot fishing camera?

[anonymous]

I’d like to pick up a new camera to take on trips.

[R Black]

I use an Olympus.

[Bob Riggins]

I use a Panasonic Lumix TS20.  It takes good shots in most fishing conditions.

[Mike Anderson]

The Nikon I have is decent and has some great features like 1080 and great low light. The AF isn’t the best though. If I had it to do all over again I’d most likely go with Canon’s WP camera.

[Kelly Glissmeyer]

I shoot a Pentax Optio W90.

i bought the Nikon Coolpix AW100 before our trip to South Dakota, the pictures are fine as  far as my eye can tell.
Weight and size are great,I’ve had a little trouble keeping the lens clear when i keep it in my pocket.
Looking forward to some water shots of White river browns next month.

I posted these comments last fall about my new Olympus TG-1.  Still very satisfied with it and it has great battery life.

I had the Pentax Optio W80 and now the W90. Both work wonderfully for fishing or any outdoor sport. They only lack in their ability to take indoor flash pictures.

I second the Pentax.

I plan on living forever, so far so good.

Have an older olympus stylus…great camera…fiance just got me a new pentax optio thing that looks like a transformer…also good camera.

[Chris Corneli]

I am also a Pentax W90 user and I’m very pleased. As a complete amateur it does what I need with basic options and is tough as hell.

[Clay Smith]

do you guys have a special camera you use for fishing?

[Colin M.]

I do.

[Justin Witt]

I’ve been through the lot of them, starting with Canons and then going through the waterproof Pentax, and now with the waterproof Nikon.
