I got a Coolpix because of how great it was for online, great color,
high quality pics. The Coolpix is a great camera but for what you want
to do I don't know if it's the right one.

I don't know about the other brands but the Coolpix takes a while to
turn on. I was at my son's soccer game and missed some shots because of
the load time. I would compare that to the other cameras. 

Also, it doesn't do well in low lighting. I know that can be said about
a lot of cameras but you may want to compare that as well.

Other wise, it is the best digital camera out there in my opinion. 

Good luck.
