what's a good digital camera that takes sport shots?

Answer 1

The one you aim at the playing field.

Answer 2

For sport shots, I would go with a digital SLR as opposed to a point-and-shoot camera. One, the shutter speeds on a DSLR are much faster, which would enable you to take a picture without worrying if the picture is going to turn out blurry or not. Two, the continuous shooting modes are also faster, meaning you can take more pictures in a shorter amount of time. Three, the pictures are going to be of a much higher quality because the pixels used in the chips in the DSLRs are bigger, meaning you will have a clearer resolution. If you are going to use the continuous shooting mode, you'll need to have a memory card with a faster recording speed so that you don't have to wait a long time for the camera to record your pictures to the memory card. You can also buy other lenses to give you more zoom or give you a wider angle. Be prepared, though, as a DSLR will cost more than a standard point-and-shoot.

I would suggest the Nikon D40, their newest camera for this Christmas. I use Nikons myself, and I find them to be much more durable and easier to use than the Canon Digital Rebel. Although the Rebel is nice, the ease of use and picture quality of the Nikon is better. The Nikon D40 is also very light and small, which means it would be easier for you to carry around without feeling like you're running away from home. It also has in-camera image editing, like contrast control, brightness, red-eye, image trimming, and a lot more. I don't believe that the Digital Rebel has those options.

Overall, a DSLR will fit your purpose very well. For sports photography, a DSLR has a greater level of versitility than any point-and-shoot or even and SLR-type digital camera (one without interchangeable lenses) I have ever seen. While no DSLR would be a "bad" choice, there are those that are better than others. Assuming that you have never used an SLR before, based on my personal experience, I would pick the Nikon D40. You'll find it very easy to use and be quite impressed with its quality.

Answer 3

What is your budget? Digital SLRs take the best sports photos but are very costly. Canon and Nikon are the best. The Nikon D80 comes with a 18-135mm kit lens which is excellent for getting close to the action. The Canon XTi has a 18-55mm kit lens but is ~$500 cheaper than the D80 so you can buy a decent lens (or 2!) with the money you've saved.
