I ride a lot in the countryside and often see wildlife or great vistas that I'd like to photograph.

Ideally, I'd like a tiny camera that also has a viewfinder but I know in this day and age the tiny cameras don't have them. Trying to frame a shot with the lcd window while still moving on the bike is tricky. But lugging along a big (and expensive) dslr would be a pain, too.

If there's a smallish camera with a viewfinder that can be easily carried on the bicycle?

If not, what have you guys found to be a good camera?

Is there a "Bento Box" that'll hold a camera and protect it from vibration/bumps? Or is a handlebar bag better? Or just use the back pockets?

I'm not interested in a helmet cam or a cellphone camera. I'll keep my Samsung Juke until it disintegrates.(it's so tiny)
