Rtm kayaks

I love photography and am going to a special spot where I love to take photos. This place is basically a shallow river, very calm river like no current at all, with tons of islets, and trees birds etc. I'm thinking of taking my DSLR with me. But the idea of capsizing, me and and the DSLR in the water scares me a little. I don't mind being wet but I'd rather not ruin my camera
thisis the kayak I'll have
Has any one here tried this mix ? how do you do it safely ? any tips or recommendations ? thanks !

Hello kayaking!
I work at a sea kayak tour company in Southern California and am on the hunt for some new kayaks for our guides to use. Hoping to pick your collective brains for ideas!
We currently use Ocean Kayak Prowler 13's and really like them. However, they seem to be out of production and we need some new boats.
In the past we’ve used ScuppeScupper Pro’s and RTM Tempo's, but the hatches and tank-well won’t fit our first aid cases very well (similar to Pelican 1500 cases).
We recently got a few Swell Scupper 14 kayaks, but they’re so good at tracking straight they don’t pinwheel turn well! We work in tight coves and caves, so turning easily is very important.
Some requirements we have (bolded the most important):

• Sit-on-top kayak
• 12’-14’ in length
• Traditional paddle, no pedals
• No ruddeskeg (shallow rock gardens)
• Rear tankwell large enough for hard case first aid kits (14”x18” approx, similar to a fishing crate size)
• Bow storage space/hatch
• Bungee/straps for spare paddle on deck
• Good tracking but easy turning
• Low seat, not raised/fishing style
• BONUS: Removable/swappable seats
• BONUS: Perimeter deck grab-lines

I know this is a pretty extensive list, but I’m running into a wall with what I can find. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Looking to get into the hobby with my wife and am looking for a good starter kayak that is budget friendly.With paddles, lifejackets and other things considered, this leaves around $700 each to spend on kayaks.I am not looking to go into the ocean with these kayaks, however I would like to be able to enter the south channel of the savannah river without too much concern of flooding/sinking and am looking for decent speed and maneuverability.
Current contenders are:Pescador Perception 12.0, Ocean Kayak Ocean Caper 11ft, RTM Disco+ 14ft (if available for ordering in the US)
but am open to any other recommendations.
EDIT: Thanks everyone for the advice!

Anyone have expirience on RTM Rytmo Angler kayak? I am thinking about buying tarpon 120 or this one. Thanks in advance.

Hey yall,
I hope you can help me choose which kayak is best for me, unfortunately I live in a country where we have pretty limited choice of brands, which combined with my size makes it kinda hard to decide which kayak I should go for.
I'm 196cm (6'5) for 85kg (190lbs) and will use the kayak on a big lake, I dont plan to take it out to the ocean any time soon as it is hours away. I think stability is more important than speed, as I will be doing much more stationary fishing rather than trolling.
Given my budget which doesnt allow for anything too fancy (at the same time I dont want to be foolish and go too low only to find myself not satisfied and spending more down the line), the choice comes down to the following:
RTM Tempo Angler - 750 euros
RTM Abaco 420 Premium - 969 euros
3 Waters Big Fish 120 - 1200 euros
Feel Free Moken 12.5 - 1100 euros
Are these actually good kayaks or are they not worth the investment? There are some really nice Jackson kayaks but the price is north of 1500 euros which starts to become quite pricey for me, even tho I'm sure they are worth it
I feel like the seating on the 3 Waters makes it stand out from the others which are much more basic in that regard, but as someone who only reads reviews and posts and has no hands on experience with any of these kayaks I would find it really helpful if someone could help me out with the choice!
Thank you very much and sorry if the request is annoying!

Would any of you know anything about a RTM Expresso kayak? They are French and I can't seem to find any reviews...
