I'm looking for a my first DSLR camera and I'm on the look out for any suggestions you might have! Its my first one as I said, so I'm not looking for anything too fancy. It just has to have the basics as well as great quality. I would probably want it to be Nikon or Canon. It would be amazing if it has film recording option as well. Also I'm looking to stay under $700 if that is at all possible. Thanks!
Answer
I can't think of a single DSLR currently available that doesn't have video capability. No DIGITAL camera has "film recording".
In my opinion you should expand your camera search to include Pentax and Sony as well as Nikon and Canon because Pentax and Sony have some features not available in comparably priced models from Nikon and Canon.
Sony.
The Sony SLT series of APS-C sensor size DSLR cameras (a58, a65, a77) use Sony's Translucent Mirror Technology which allows for full-time, continuous phase-detect auto focus whether you're shooting still images or full 1080p HD video. Also, the SLT series of cameras have a focusing motor in the camera body as well as Sony's version of Image Stabilization (IS). Plus, the SLT cameras use the legacy Minolta Maxxum "A" lens mount introduced in 1985. There is still a good selection of previously owned Minolta Maxxum AF lenses available that will have full functionality on any of the SLT models and be stabilized as well. Both Nikon and Canon have their respective versions of IS in some but not all of their lenses so you pay for it again and again. The Sony SLT a65 was chosen by TIPA (Technical Image Press Association) as their top "DSLR - Advanced" in 2012.
Pentax.
The Pentax K-30 is currently the lowest-priced Weather Resistant (WR) DSLR on the market. WR means you can safely use the K-30 in the rain or in very dusty conditions. It doesn't mean you can take it swimming though. The K-30 uses the legacy Pentax "K" lens mount introduced in 1975 so any Pentax or third-party "K" mount lens ever made can be used on the K-30. Older manual focus lenses will meter on the K-30 and thanks to the focus motor in the camera body auto focus lenses will auto focus on it. Like Sony, Pentax has their version of IS in the camera body so any lens used becomes a stabilized lens.
Nikon.
Since approximately 1959 Nikon has used the "F" lens mount which gives Nikon the lead in backwards capability. However, you have to go to the D90 or D7000 to get a focusing motor in the camera body so on the lower-level Nikon DSLR cameras (D3100, D3200, D5100, D5200) only the more expensive AF-S lenses will auto focus. The older AF lenses can be used but only with manual focus. Nikon currently offers DSLR lenses in DX (for crop-sensor cameras) and FX (for their full-frame cameras) designations. An FX lens is perfectly suited on a DX or FX body and a DX lens can be used on an FX body although the camera will automatically "crop" the full-frame sensor to the size of a DX sensor. This means a loss of megapixels but at least a DX lens can be used on an FX body. Unfortunately, as previously mentioned, Nikon only has their version of IS (they call it VR) in some of their lenses.
Canon.
When Canon introduced their Rebel EOS auto focus 35mm film cameras in 1988 they abandoned their legacy "FD/FL" lens mount for the "EF" lens mount. Of course this limits their backwards compatibility. Canon has added additional confusion with their lower-priced "EF-S" lenses for their crop-sensor cameras (T3, T3i, SL1, 60D/60Da* and 7D). The "EF-S" lenses CANNOT be used on a Canon full-frame DSLR such as the 6D, 5D and 1D. Anyone who buys a crop-sensor Canon DSLR and adds 2 or 3 "EF-S" lenses and later decides to upgrade to a Canon full-frame DSLR will have to replace all of their lenses. Like Nikon, Canon chose to offer their version of IS in some but not all of their lenses. * The 60Da is a factory-modified 60D intended for use in astrophotography.

Best choice point and shoot ($300-$450)?

I am looking for a good camera for indoor pictures. I have 3 little kids and take a million shots indoors, but the little $100 camera I have doesn't take decent pictures. I've looked into it a bit and have found a few with good reviews and decent picture quality. The few I've looked into:
Olympus TG-1iHS 12 MP Waterproof Digital Camera with 4x Optical Zoom
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX30V 18.2 MP Exmor R CMOS Digital Camera with 20x Optical Zoom and 3.0-inch LCD (Black) (2012 Model)
Nikon COOLPIX P310 16.1 MP CMOS Digital Camera with 4.2x Zoom NIKKOR Glass Lens and Full HD 1080p Video
Nikon COOLPIX L810 16.1 MP Digital Camera with 26x Zoom NIKKOR ED Glass Lens and 3-inch LCD (Red)
Fujifilm XF1/Blk 12MP Digital Camera with 3-Inch LCD (Black)
Olympus XZ-1 10 MP Digital Camera with f1.8 Lens and 3-Inch OLED Monitor (Black)
Canon PowerShot SX260 HS 12.1 MP CMOS Digital Camera with 20x Image Stabilized Zoom 25mm Wide-Angle Lens and 1080p Full-HD Video (Black)
Panasonic DMC-FZ150K 12.1 MP Digital Camera with CMOS Sensor and 24x Optical Zoom (Black)
Nikon COOLPIX P510 16.1 MP CMOS Digital Camera with 42x Zoom NIKKOR ED Glass Lens and GPS Record Location (Black)
I was wondering if anyone had one of these or a decent knowledge of them and could advise me on which would be best for what I'm looking for. Or another suggestion of a camera that takes good indoor pictures. I work a lot in low light and with fast kids. I'm not expecting a miracle - point and shoot cameras can only do so much, but... Any help would be appreciated!

Nikon and canon make quality cameras. They will give you a camera that will last. Most of these cameras will brake easily, but canons and nikons won't. You can choose any from these two companies.
