When you say you want to shoot animals and eventually outdoor sport can you give us a better idea of what is in your head for these subjects?
Animals, mostly smaller wild animals and birds I come accross when hiking in nature. I wont be the kind to specifically go "hunting" for a shoot, or spend hours hiding in the hope to get a sighting, it's more of a casual, spur of the moment thing. I also don't "need" a super long zoom range, I rarely used the full extent of my Canon S2's anyway, except for snapshots.
Here are a few examples I took with my good ol' S2, forgive the low resolution since those were formatted to fit online friendly contests:
As for outdoor sports, it will be my son (4.5 years old) "playing soccer", maybe not this summer but in 2016 for sure.
why not a Pentax K-50 or even the new K-S2? They compare quite favorably, spec for spec with Canon/Nikon and are both weather-resistant....
Will check those out more in detail, thanks! I've been told about the K-50 yesterday, looks very promising.
If you shoot sports or action shots a DSLR will have better focusing
with Canon 60D
