Hi all,
I was hoping to get some advice on cameras. I come from a basic point-and-shoot background and then simply opted for using a smartphone since the camera was so good. I'd like to get something better that can do an optical zoom of a decent range and take pictures of fast moving objects. Something I can get my feet wet with and use to learn and have pictures good enough to manipulate, and not get bored with after 6 months. I'm at a $350 max price point.
I came across this one that seemed interesting. Canon SX50 HS
Should also mention I got a camera as a gift several years ago and sadly never used it. It's a PowerShot SX20IS. Let me know if you think that fits the bill, though I have a feeling it doesn't.
Thanks a lot,
