Any alternatives in a Canon variety for the price, or a different Nikon? Not going higher than 250, as my use isn't really for anything special. 300 will be the -absolute- highest I will go, IF it truly stomps the crap out of everything else between $200 and $300.
Ok, up front hardware requirement stuff, if suggesting an alternative
- MUST have a lithium ion battery. I hate not having enough battery life for those special moments
- Some decent zoom
- well balanced for all types of photos (i.e. night time, sunny, indoors, snowing out, etc.)
I haven't touched a digital camera in at least 6 years, past taking an occasional photo for the family, but I'm not walking out of a cave here either. Either way, I'm willing to learn how to make the most of it. I am seeking a point and shoot camera, hence my selection.
What I will be taking photos of:
- Family events (mostly indoor, some outdoor)
- My car, inside, outside, and under the hood (mainly because I can.
)
- Any mods/builds/projects I do that I feel like sharing here
- Occasional sports games my cousin is playing in (baseball primarily)
- Whatever "where's a camera when you need one?" moments and I just happen to have it on me.
