Please help me and thank you so much!
For these kind of pics a DSLR is the best camera to get. The cheapest DSLR would be able to take great pictures, most better than Point and Shoot cameras.

Answer by polar bear on 08 Jan 2010 12:00:17All you need is a camera that can shoot manually, when you find one that does you just change the aperture to the lowest number it can go to. Then, focus on the subject and take the picture =)

I think you need a DSLR camera. It is an investment but it can be well worth it. DSLR cameras have the larger sensor so you get a higher quality image. You can change lenses which can be valuable, by allowing to adjust to different needs.
There are a number of good brands so don't be sold on the idea one brand is better than another. I would keep your costs down. I would get a DSLR with a short zoom (like a 18-55mm) to start. No reason to spend more than $425 to $550. Either a 10MP or 12MP (MP means mega pixel) will do just fine.
Below, I listed some links, the first link listed below is to a web page that lists the 4 DSLR cameras I am recommending. This list will let you compare features and specs, also it has link to reviews to the 3 of the 4 cameras, the reviews includes sample images from the cameras. Also I included some links to some dealers so that you can try and get the best price. Some dealers have some nice extras, free shipping is very common, and sometimes they are offering a free memory card and/or camera bag. Sometimes you have to click in the "add to cart" button to see the actual price.
Here are some models that I think are well worth researching:
Sony Alpha A230 Digital SLR 10 MP with 18-55mm Lens - $429
Nikon D3000 10MP DSLR Digital Camera with 18-55mm VR Lens - $449
EOS Rebel XS 10MP DSLR Digital Camera Kit (Black) with 18-55mm IS Lens - $449
Pentax K-x 12MP DSLR with 18-55mm Zoom (has HD Video also) - $550
Hope this helps. Pick a price range, some features you know you want, and even consider which camera feels good in your hand as a factor. Plenty of great cameras, get one you like and start learning the principles of photography and you will be on your way to making some great images. If you have any questions and if you think I can be of help then please do contact me.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
Mark
