[quote Joe_Dizzy]I always have a camera along when I'm fishing, hiking, etc. but would never consider taking a DSLR. I just carry one of those "tough" point 'n' clicks, so so worries about dirt, drops, water... it can (and has) handle it all.
Mine is a Fujifilm Finepix XP60 (probably available for less than $100 now as I'm sure they've upgraded).
It does your average "record the moment" type shot...

Macro shots...

Underwater shots...

And scenic shots....

Anyway, just a thought for a better option than lugging along (and risking) your DSLR gear.[/quote]
THIS!!! I take all these four kinds of shots too, with a Pentax Optio.
