Hello,
I am not completely new to photography, but I'm not a pro either. I'm leaving on a cross-country trip next week and I'm looking for a digital cam that's pretty versatile, while in the cheaper price range (in case it gets stolen, lost, or damaged).
I'm open to P&S or DSLR, but I know the cheapest DSLR will probably be out of price range. (Looking to keep it below $400 if at all possible).
What I'm looking for:
10x optical zoom or better
fast shutter speed (for catching moving animals)
good picture quality (>6mp)
ability to manual focus and auto
I'm not even sure if a camera exists that meets this criteria, but I hope someone can help me out.
TIA!
