Title: Camera options
Post by: MnFn on September 02, 2013, 05:12:00 PM
Looks like I need a new camera for my fall hunts. I am backpacking, so size is a consideration. I'd like to stay under  $300 or so.  Anybody have any good recommendations?

Thanks,
G

I picked up a Panasonic Lumix LX7 and it is incredible. It has a super fast lens for low light situations. It is made for Leica but then they re-brand it for themselves and sell it cheaper. It also takes great video with auto focus and zoom.

Panasonic fz 200 is an incredible camera/lens.  With a 2.8 F stop from 28mm to 600mm in a Ziess lens.  Shots HD movies including slow motion.  BB turned me on to this camera and I cannot be happier.
