Hello moms ~ I'm looking to buys a new camera and need help deciding which is the best for me. I take "mom" shots of my kids - need to have a good zoom (superzoom?) for my kids sporting events, needs to have good action shot ability. Would like to spend less than $400. Thanks in advance!
Back in the day, my fave "mom" camera was my Kodak Z612! It's got an amazing zoom. I did a lot of moon shots with it. Very good detail (with tripod).
This one is a little over $400: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/571144-REG/Canon_2762B003_EOS_Rebel_XS_SLR.html (You can also buy this one used and it's under $400)
Or this one is just under: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/734782-REG/Canon_4344B001_PowerShot_SX30_IS_Digital.html (Also found used for cheaper!)
If you want a nice camera it will cost a little or you can always check ebay and see what they have! (= Good luck camera shopping!
my first camera before I got into photography was a canon Sx 20is.. and I LOVED it.. It had a super zoon and took excellent close up photos of the moon!
