Hey y'all.. I've been looking at cameras for a while now for my Fiancee as she is nearing the end of her photography classes.. Was hoping to surprise her with it as a gift and as an upgrade to the camera she is currently using. She is using a Canon PowerShot SX170 IS. I'm going to be honest, I have the slightest clue what to look for.. Although from researching different kinds of cameras and what have you.. I'm at least starting to get a gist of things. I know that what she is using now is a Point & Shoot. I guess I'll just cut to the chase instead of rambling.. I have $250-$350 to spend. She takes quite a bit of animal portraits so 50% of the time, the target of her picture is in motion. I guess what I'm asking is, what would be a practical upgrade from a Canon PowerShot SX170 IS? Thank you in advance.. I'm sure you guys get more than enough posts like this one.
EDIT: In my title, I said new.. I meant this as in.. "New" to her. I have no issues buying used products. Thanks!
