What to look for in a digital camera?

Question

I would love a better camera then the FinePix A610 I have, its a great camera I love it to death but I want something with a faster shutter speed and more professional.
I have kids I take pictures of for family, they could care less about the quality but I do.
I've come across two Canon's I'm thinking of buying but can't make up my mind

The price rage I'm looking for is around $2,000-

I think you should start out with the cheaper one at $900. You can get the camera and get a lens or two. The other one the $2500+ one is very hardcore professional photographers who do photo editing. That is one of the main reasons someone would want a camera that takes pictures at 22 megapixels. At that size you can blow up a picture to a couple of feet and have no degradation in picture quality. The $2000 camera is probably over kill for your needs. Also remember that megapixel size does not corelate to better pictures. It is about lens quality, ISO settings, etc.

You should also search for the cameras in http://www.google.com  and search for "name of camera" review and a bunch of reviews for the camera will be listed.
