My cheap-o digital camera (an Olympus D-390) died back in June and I'm contemplating the purchase of a (not-so-cheap-o) new one. But I'm thinking about exploring the land of the digital SLR instead of a point & shoot. (I'll still get a P&S for the kids to use and for general use when I don't want to break out "the big dog".) Through the exploring I've done, I think I'm leaning toward a Canon or Olympus. I also don't want to spend more than $700 - $800. I tend to shoot action (dance and soccer), landscapes, and indoor stuff. Any recommendations for a SLR beginner?
