hi, i thought digital camera was the popular camera as it is slim and it is the latest technology but still cant take fast moving fishes. then i notice some bro using those big, heavy camera to take fish photo is much better, sharper as it can take fast motion movement like fishes. any specific name for this big, heavy camera ?

are you refering to

Slim type = compact digital cam or point & Shoot cam

Bulky type = DSLR cam

FYI, you can take good shot even with certain point & shoot cam as long as the set up & technique is right & DSLR doesn't always give you good result if the set up is wrong.

I am using the big and bulky DSLR but I have seen ppl use the compact with amazing results. You have to learn to use the camera properly.

there are many beginner grade DSLR by various power house. if u haven got a weapon (p and s or DSLR) can consider those beginner series as the price difference is not that big. like the sifus has pointed out, the camera is just a body, u need heavy lens, heavy flash and heavy creativity

agreed. need skills too though, which you can pick up in no time. a good entry level DSLR will be the sony alpha 3XX series
