I researched everything on the market last dear season and what you are looking for is the fastest trigger time and the most mega pixels for the money. Stay away from 35mm cameras, pay the money for digital it will pay off in film and processing must faster than you think. Cuddeback has the best trigger times and the new one with IR looks awesome but it is expensive. The digital 3.0 is what I have and I love it! Check out ebay to, it's where I bought mine.
