Looking for DSLR for indoor ballet & outdoor sports?




icequeen_a


Trying to get a DSLR that can grow with my family. Need to get good photos for indoor/low light Ballet and also for football games/action shots. My current camera is starting to go, so I need something new. Not a pro but have an older Sony Digital, built-in lens, that I've been pushing and setting to get pretty good quality low-light no flash pics. I've been able to get only as high as 5 x 7 prints on those before it gets way too grainy. Takes good videos, too.

My father has a Nikon telephoto lens so I'm leaning towards Nikon, but frankly I need something sturdy that is somewhat weather proof, takes great action shots and won't kill my wallet. Want to stay below $800. TIA.



Answer
I would recommend the entry-level DSLRs.

Here are my personal favorites:

Canon t2i: 66.0 for image quality and up to 1080p for video (Full HD video - Movie like )
Canon T3: 62.0 for image quality and up to 720p for video (HD video)
Nikon d90: 73.0 for image quality and up to 720p for video (HD video)
Nikon d3200: 81.0 for image quality (Full HD video - Movie like )

You can find them at a decent price on eBay and it is international so no worries. Be sure to choose "Show lowest price first" so that you don't need to scroll down every page ! But I think that with the price you are willing to pay, it would be okay buying it new.

If you start to really like photography and want to continue to become a photographer, I would suggest upgrading to the Canon 7d or Canon 5d Mark II once you get hold of things and start making money.

Also check out this website : http://www.snapsort.com and write down the camera you want to see the whole review, comments, characteristics etc !

The camera body won't do everything though, you'll need to know how to use the camera and choose the right lenses. I think they are lenses made for sports and moving objects and such

Does anyone have a sample video of this cheap ebay action cam?

=======
720p video files for 70-bucks are not going to be excellent..
But may be worthy of the ability to carry this camera around../
I did not read--that the waterproof case--actually comes with the camera../
(the waterproof case may be a separate item)
Its a 1.3 MegaPixel camera..
That's OK--for video..
But total junk--on jpgs.
