I have a few friends who hunt.Usually after the hunting season we get together to exchange hunting stories ect.Many times I have asked to see pictures of the game they have taken.Most pictures if any is of a hide rolled up head attached.I myself love a nice field photo right after the kill,no matter what the size of the game as they are all trophies to me.Question is who feels a camera/camcorder is also a important part of thier hunting accessories?Do you agree or disagree with me?Alot of my buddies say they take enough $hit out hunting with them,and a camera is usually something that gets left at home.:(
 
Definetly take a camera along! The digital camera's are small enough to fit in your pocket and you can take alot of photo's. Get them home and you can instantly see them on your 'puter.
 
You have to have a camrea with, pictures taken right after the game is found are the best. I bought a digital camera just to take hunting, one of the Pentax water reistant ones, no worries if it rains or you have grubby hands on it. You just clean it off with no worries of it getting wet. It's nothing fancy only 3.2 mega pixels, but it takes nice pics and the water resistant feature was important to me. I don't want to take my good camera out and end up ruining it.
 
Just bought a new jvc camcorder with 32x optical zoom and 800x digital zoom. The best part is it can record for 24 hours on lowest quality and 7 hours on the best quality. Comes with remote control so ill be recording my deer xbow hunt in October. photobucket is good for pics, whats good for vids?

as for cameras i keep a disposable in the glove box another in one of my cargo pockets and usualy bring either the camcorder or a digital cam with me if i can remember pics are worth a thousand words when it comes to hunting
 
Absolutely - bring a camera! The more compact the better - you're more likely to have it with you when a photo op occurs. Don't just take dead thing pictures. Take photos of everything. Getting ready, your hunting rig, the hunting field, trees, grass, birds, camp, your gun, skinning knife, etc. Its much better to have your photos tell a story, rather than just a record of a dead animal.

Years from now they will bring back memories.
 
I was into digitial before any of the guys I hunted with and after showing them the versatility of taking photos of everything, they were quickly converted. They now all have cameras and we exchange CD's/e-mails after the hunt and the season. Really cool.

Interestingly, I only delete the really bad pictures - blurry, finger in the way etc., all the others, even doubles and triples just in case, I have kept.

I have two digital cameras and my Canon ELPH goes everywhere with me.
 
I always forget the damn thing. Not that I don't want to take it with me, I'm just.... scattered.

My buck fever starts when I wake up in the morning I guess. I went out hunting 3 years ago with a friend, in -25 degree weather with a foot of fresh snow, and forgot my boots.
