I thank everybody that replied. I went and looked up all suggested cameras. Some looked to advanced for me others looked good. I had a cannon that was great but it DIED!!!
I bought a Nikon coolpix L830. I took it to the National Finals rodeo and it was horrible!!! It wasn't fast enough focusing. Shutter speed with indoor lighting blurred everything no matter what I did. It sucked!!! I bought a lumix DMC-FZ70 in Vegas the guy swore it would work. I couldn't I wasted so much time playing with the settings and I still couldn't get it to freeze the action in the low light. Even without that problem I had trouble figuring it out. I took the COOLPIX L830 out today walking along the river to see the birds and animals. It is SLOW to focus on subjects. Still don't like it. I under stand the basics. Shutter speed freezes action. Aperture is depth of field. Iso (more or less was basically film speed). I also have a cannon sx730 HS that I carry on the trail. Had a hard tome getting things like spider in web and flowers close up from horses back. Took pictures of friend on trail okay. I need a camera in 2 weeks so I've got to decide now.
Does anybody have the same or different suggestions from what I've said? I need something fairly "keep it simple stupid" but focusing and speed I think are some of my problems.

Thank you. One of the cameras I was looking at was the P900. I looked at the B700. Then looked up the P900 and the B700. A number of people who had both seemed to like the P900 better. I don't take videos and don't use raw but I do want auto focus and good clear pictures. I like good detail because I use some of the rodeo pictures for my art work. Thank you so much for answering.

Thank you.

Thank you !!!

Thank you.

Thank you!!!!!

I'm frustrated at looking up new cameras.
I really need two cameras. I ride and train horses and I travel. I need a smaller/smallish camera to take on trail rides. I see some really cool things out there. I need something pretty automatic because I sometimes have only one hand. I need something that works in low light and can stop motion. I often don't have much time to shoot. Next I take vacations and see anything from photographing lava at night at Volcano National Park to that ram up on the mountain in Alaska to that hummingbird in front of me. Someone suggested a Nikon D3400? I don't want to carry a lot of lenses. The less you travel with the better. Also I'm a horse person so I photograph rodeos too. Is there any cameras out there that will these things? I don't mind two cameras but I'm tiered of spending money and NOT getting the picture I see.
I really need help!!!!!!!
