camera recs?

[csmuds]

I know this isn't the hobbies/photography board, but that place is a snoozefest. 

I have no interest in learning tons about photography or being a momtographer.  I just want to take decent snapshots of my kids instead of blurred photos of the tops of their heads.  I would like something that has a fast shutter speed and good focus when zooming.  I tried researching a bit on Amazon, but it's beyond my scope since I know shit besides point-and-shoot.  And I'm lazy lol. 

Any recs or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

The Canon Rebel is a GREAT beginner camera.  Try Costco for a camera+lens(s) deal.

Also found this....which I agree with too. You canʻt go wrong with a 50mm 1.8 www.photographyblogger.net/the-best-and-most-often-piece-of-advice-i-can-give-to-you-for-buying-your-first-dslr/
