All I want is a cheap digital camera to take traveling with me when I go to Argentina at the start of next year. My sister took a Sony Cybershot camera when she went on holiday and the photos she produced were brilliant, so clean and colourful. I can’t afford anything that expensive so I have been trying to scour internet review sites for more informed opinions. Most of the review sites I come across are crammed with the kind of information that I find completely useless. I don’t know what the hell a smile shutter is and no one ever bothers to elaborate. All I know is that it doesn’t mean that the camera automatically takes a picture when the subject smiles because one could be stupid enough to invent something that ridiculous…could they?
The megapixels, the megapixels and the megapixels are always what you hear people boast about when they get a new camera.

Today many companies who traditionally manufactured film and cameras using photographic film have pulled out of the market.
Traditional cameras use film to capture images. These films or negatives have to be chemically processed to get the photograph. This requires studio facilities and uses up a lot of time. The films can not be reused either. Digital photography uses digital technology. An image sensor in the Digital camera captures the images. The sensor consists of silicon chips containing photosensitive diodes. These diodes, called photosites, record the intensity of the light which falls on them and the information is stored digitally as a set of numbers. The images stored in the memory card are downloaded into a computer and the card can be reused. The image is reconstructed on the screen or printed on paper using these numbers to set the brightness and the color […]

It seems that every month a manufacturer is releasing a new digital camera packed with an obscene amount of features, this fact puts the consumer in a great position as far as customer selection and price is concerned, however how about when a person wants to buy a digital camera?

Most people will go to the mall, splash out their hard earned cash on a state of the art camera with around 10 Mega pixels, with 2GB removable memory and many adjustable setting and different scene modes and in general an abundance of features. We often make this selection because the manufacturer of whom we are buying from comments on that particular camera being the best in the market, and of course we want the best in the market so we make the selection and part with our money, however then a few months later the same manufacturer releases a brand new digital camera and then comments on that model being the best in the market. This then tends to confuse us and or anger us.
The most important feature of a digital camera is the mega pixel count, a […]
