I'm looking for 2 key things, ability to take fast pictures (with a baby I need to catch them) and works well in low light and outside

I have been researching a camera to death. I need to take clear pictures, I don't want a delay in taking them and they need to work in low light. (I'm tired of trying to pile the lamps in one room just to take a picture). A movie feature w/ sound would be nice and if it used AA's and a SD memory card that would be nice too. I was hoping to spend under $400.

Julie,

You might try the Canon A700. It uses AA batteries, SD Cards, can be found for under $400, will do well in low and bright lighting (ISO 80-800), and gets high marks in customerreviews. One reviewer that has a fast crawling baby even states that the camera is "great with kids." Good luck and happy shooting.

Andrew

Possibly also the Canon A640, which is somewhat similar to the A700 but has a few changes, among them a swivel LCD.

I really, really want to send you to the Fuji Finepix F30, because its low light performance outshines the Canons. But it does not use SD cards or AA batteries.
