What's a good autofocus digital camera for sports photography?



My husband wants to take pictures at our sons' baseball and soccer games - he wants to be able to point and shoot. We have a Canon PowerShot Elph and we can get pretty decent pics but the shutter lag is a pain. And since it's 4 years old I'm guessing there is some better technology now....What's a step up for us in the digital world but not into SLRs?

I have a Digital Canon Rebel with a 300mm lens and it works awesome! It's not the huge lens, can't afford that, but it still gets right in there on the action, and you can even edit it on your computer so you can crop and zoom. I've taken pictures of my son playing baseball and it will stop the ball and any other action and is very clear!
Look into one of the new ultra zoom cameras.
Like, the Panasonic FZ8

Canon S5IS (new) or S3IS
Sony H2 or H5 (the newer H7/H9 got panned in reviews for it's lousy interface and no better image quality)
Maybe the Fuji S6000fd (bigger, but you get a manual zoom and better high ISO performance)

Or maybe even the new Olympus SP550UZ. Big on features.

you should try getting a canon eos30 that should do the thing with a fixed 50mm digital lens
