Digital Cameras

Buying a digital camera can be overwhelming but important if you want your memories to last a lifetime! Here is a very quick guide to help with this decision.

1. Determine what you need

What type of photography will you be doing? (portraits, landscapes, macro, sports) 2. Megapixels are good and bad!

The more megapixels often equates to more noise in the picture. If you're only printing images at a normal size then anything over 5 megapixels will be fine. If you start blowing your images up you might want to pay the extra money for the upper end of what's on the market today. 3. DSLR or Point and Shoot / Compact Camera?

4. Optical Zoom is King

Not all "zooms" are created equal. Digital zooms simply enlarge the pixels which makes it look more pixelated. If you're looking for a zoom lens make sure it's an optical zoom (most modern cameras have them of at least 3x in length ie they'll make your subject three times as big with an increasing array of "super zooms" coming onto the market at up to 12x Optical Zoom).Looking to buy a digital camera?

I'm shopping an ATI/Diamond hd video card... your price is about 25.00 higher than the lowest i've seen but because y'all have provided me with outstanding service in the past I'm buying from you... 25 bucks is nothing when it comes to integrity. you were awesome when i ordered some Boston acoustics speakers last summer- absolutely amazing.... I'm remiss in not giving the rep a huge thank you for his help... but thank you! you folks are an oasis in a sea of uncertainty... r, Bill H. Anonymous
