I just picked up a new Canon 7D a few weeks ago, and had a xti before that. I RARELY bring the thing when I'm fishing. I think this year, I may spend a little more time taking pictures, and less time fishing. We'll see. I just bought the 70-200 2.8 IS L last week, planning on shooting with it tomorrow. We'll see if I can stop fishing long enough to take a few pictures. I haven't been fishing in weeks. <br /><br />I also use the Panasonic TS1. I highly recommend it for a fishing camera. It shoots video in 720P, and the image quality is pretty decent. I brought it with me to Panama last year, and it held up to the salt just fine. If you're gonna pick up another tough cam, you should look at this one. The new TS2 comes out soon too, I think.Chris Michelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14325761024713237683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-880478764413043795.post-68989279839498546342010-03-03T17:11:20.084-05:002010-03-03T17:11:20.084-05:00Chris,

I got a kit with two lenses but they aren't the best. <br /><br />The biggest adjustment with the DSLR is...not fishing. You can't do both at the same time. So, I find myself stuck in limbo a lot. <br /><br />I am also fishing a lot more alone these days, so I really don't have anyone to take pictures of fish or fishing stuff so I haven't been using it a lot. It would probably be great for River though. <br /><br />For a fishing camera that you don't really have to worry about breaking/getting wet, Pentax is coming out with the W90 which I might need to get. I am using my old beat to hell W40 that rarely works because my W60 didn't like saltwater too much.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02645131370691374221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-880478764413043795.post-84590534516592620022010-03-02T08:03:51.483-05:002010-03-02T08:03:51.483-05:00Nice pics.
