First you have to figure out if you want a point and shoot or an SLR.

If you are looking for the best pics - you want the SLR that has interchageable lenses.

But for you Whit, I would recommend a superzoom point and shoot that has 10x zoom or more. I would also go with a Canon or Nikon.

How much are you looking to spend?

You dont really have to spend that much -


I think this one would be fantastic:

Canon SX1 20x Superzoom Has 10MP CMOS Sensor, Shoots 1080p Video - Canon - Gizmodo

Yes, an SLR is likely better because it has a much bigger image sensor. But they take a lot of screwing around to figure out how to run it.


That P90 above is also a very good choice.
