Steve, checkout The Sony page
http://www.sel.sony.com/SEL/consumer/mavica/0301_fd91.html
The FD91 has a fast shutter, shutter priority setting and a zoom equivalent
to a f37mm to 518mm zoom lens in a 35mm camera.

Happy shooting

I am looking for suggestions/testimonials of a good digital or film camera
for taking pictures of all kinds of running events (road races, cross
country, & track meets).  I want a camera that is easy to use for a
non-photographer (a point & shoot).  Sometimes I'm close to the action,
other times I'm up in the stands, so good telephoto capabilities are
needed.

I've never owned a digital camera, so If anyone has pro/cons on them,
they're welcomed.

Please post and email responses.

Thanks,
Steve
