Just ordered a new fishing camera, a Nikon Coolpix s620. Anybody got one? You like it?

My daughter has one and loves it. She especially likes the large view screen, Seems weird not to have to look into the small view slot anymore. Enjoy! :yes:

I am a huge nikon fan, but I use DSLR product. I am curious does this nikon take photos of the ones that get away??:spingrin:

No, that's impossible. And thank God because I caught a fish last week that weighed 9 pounds and had it got away I'm sure it would go almost 20.

I ordered the Fish Eye lens. Probably a mistake because I would rather get the whole fish in there.

I cheeped out for my "fish camera" I got the Nikon220. I like it because I can carry it while I'm fishing, driving or hiking. But there is nothing like the SLR though. I hate looking at the crappy little screen that most of the time outdoors you can't see. But it's handy & will take short videos. So Osprey... where's the fish pics?

A true fishermans fish camera would make all fish appear 30% bigger.

Someone once told me never to take a camera on a fishing trip... It limits the fish stories.

all these posts have my rolling. very funny Is that the camera with photo shop built in?

Osprey - 2-7-2010 at 08:29 AM

No. I got this one because it has 7X zoom Nikkor optics and some other nice features. I'm just a novice with a camera so even if I had gazzillions of pesos to buy the best, it would be wasted on me. I do envy those on the board who post such stunning photos like Russ, Diana, Ken and many others.
