 |  I am looking for a Camera Could you all tell me what camera you use for outdoors? I am looking for a digital camera that we can take anywhere. Waterproof for the boat, small enough to be put in your pocket for camping, durable enough for hiking, not very expensive so if it does break not such a big deal, and takes nice outdoor pictures. Any help would be appreciated. | ||||||||

| I use a Sony cybershot, there are different models but I am not sure about waterproof. I love mine, it is very easy to use, good zoom, small, lightweight and it takes great pictures. | ||||||||

| My camera is a Fujifilm Finepix, I think it would tick most boxes for you but it is not waterproof. I am very happy with the picture quality and it has an excellent zoom. | ||||||||

| Thank you for the input. I think I remember people using some sort of waterproof bag or box to but the camera in when in the boat and still able to take pictures? So I will look into both the Cybershot and the Finepix. | ||||||||

| I love my sony cyber shot...I think it is actually very handy and any one who is not into photography can also deliver some nice results with it....I have been amazed with what all I have been able to do with mine...photos in dark caves....at night...with the moon in the background and a romanitc candle lit dinner..what not... | ||||||||

| I should add that I have good photo editing software on my laptop so I can edit and crop my photos later, it makes such a difference to the end result. | ||||||||

| You can get a waterproof bag type cover to use the cybershot near water, I don't have one but I have used the camera on the beach and in the rain with no problems. | ||||||||
