I am going on a kayak trip in the San Juan Islands to see Orcas so the pics will be taken from further away. Can you zoom in?

Yes - great zoom for this price level - and you can zoom while you are videoing too as well as when taking still

Yes you can zoom in, even when taking video and the image still looks great. Have fun on your trip!

I take mine in the Gulf of Mexico to fish and no matter if the conditions are flat calm to 2 1/2ft seas with constantly shifting winds mild to gusty, in the marshes, skinny waters with oyster beds, muck and rock, I'm confident in the way this little vessel handles out there. Google Earth is a good tool to use before you go out, to find out the what the waters are like. Pay attention to the weather and use common sense in regards to conditions, your abilities and comfort zone. The kayak should get you there and back w/out incident.

I have not taken pictures from a kayak but I have taken a lot at the beach and on boats in the sun and have never had an issue viewing the images.

I love mine, especially the 40x zoom. I took it this Fall on an Alaskan cruise and the photos are amazing.

My friend has taken the G12 diving and I have to say the pics were amazing for a camera of this size. I was very impressed. He is also a great photographer which helps! I am definitely looking at purchasing this for diving. I have used the Powershot with housing before and was very happy with the set up and overall quality so am excited to try this camera on my next dive adventure.

Yes you can. Just returned from a 2 week vacation on the big island of Hawaii and took some wonderful underwater pictures. Great camera. Is well worth the money.

I watched several animals from afar during my safari. Very clear and comfortable to hold. Some animals were 600 to 700 feet away and we could watch them as they slowly made their way towards watering holes. The guides liked my binoculars better than their own

I won't be much help. We didn't like the pics we got on dry land do returned it immediately. Pics were too pixilated to ever print. Hope that helps

Just went Eagle watching at Starved Rock park in Illinois. I had a Canon 7D, Sigma 300mm Zoom (fully extended) with a 2X extender mounted on it. I was able to track the Eagles with great fluidity and get some great shots. Have fun!

I,m sorry but I cannot answer without seeing the island. However I,m sure you can work with it somehow. It is worth the try. Good luck!

I just returned from the South Pacific - the camera perform flawlessly! We did a snorkle with sharks and in various coral reefs. Both the stills and video are perfect! Highly recommend!
