I bought the Nikon P500 this year for $425. It is one of the power zoom
cameras and has an optical zoom of 36X and the image stabilizer built right
into it. I turn the digital part off and only use the optical, because like
you, I am just starting out and haven't bought a tripod yet and still learning.
I get pretty good pics for a beginner on it and am happy. I'm not sure about
bursts but if I put it in the sports mode on a sunny day I can capture birds in
flight. Look into this one, they are kind of hard to find and I got mine at
Ritz' camera store at Bayshore.

After 18 years of birding, contemplating the purchase of a camera for birding,
primarily for documentation purposes:)
As a pastor, cost is of course an issue. Any thoughts about models and ease if
use?
