Ok so I just went to see a few ballgames over the weekend and half of my photos turned out like shit. I know nothing about cameras so I really need some advice about brand, features, functionality, ect. Im not looking for top grade here but something decent. Any ideas?? ---

Sony has a camera with 16X optical zoom for like $450 and it’s 8MP. Here you have best of both works…not exactly a point and shoot and not as expansive as a DLSR. ---
