Camera people...

So basically I need a new camera. I am wondering if there is any GOOD camera out there for < $1000 that will give me what I want..

- First off, I want something that will get me good pictures when I'm zoomed.

- Is there a camera that will capture a good picture when things are moving, like fast movements of arms on a person? (You can see it in the bad pics, if I'm not getting my point across in words)

-NO BLURRY PICS!


Here's some shots from the concert today with my Sony Cybershot 5.1 megapixel camera:

Good shot
Good shot 2
Good shot 3

Bad shot

Bad shot 3

All in all.... second row @ TSO concert + catching this guys guitar pick = :thumbsup:

you want a dslr with antishake technology/image stabilization...
big sensor/big quality lense = very high iso for faster shutter speeds with lower light
image stabilization tech for even faster shutter speeds..
good dslrs have image sensors big as film. cheap consumer cams have tiny cheap sensors prone to noise. big sensor = big light capture. also have less shuttler lag and have features like bracketing where they take extra pics at slightly higher and lower exposure in a burst for a better chance that one will come out right.

i see those pics you took were in a low light situation, a good dslr might have worked there. consumer cams only really work with tons of light and at the iso 50-200 range, after that its noisy mess

Well... I turned the flash off with those pics since cameras weren't even supposed to be there and there was a security guy standing at the end of my row. Flash could of screwed me. And flash wouldn't really of helped me anyway with all the lights and stuff around.

Lighting nightmare. I dont think many cams would have done well in those surroundings. Learn how to manipulate the camera you have now first. Then spend the money on a dslr. Honestly, i think the images arent that bad with the low/poor lighting and the movements going on in there. You probably werent still either since people were probably bumping into you.
