Digital Point-and-Shoot Cameras - Choosing The Best One For You

Kodak revolutionized picture taking with the Brownie camera. And then along came 35mm film and the small, affordable cameras. The next supposed revolution in photography was the Advatix film and camera system. But that didn?t last long. Now, it?s digital and it?s is here and here to stay!

The digital camera has come down in price since they first came on the market. A small Nikon 2 mega pixel camera was almost a thousand dollars. Now you can get a quality digital camera (of at least five mega pixels) for less than two hundred dollars. And the quality of images is outstanding!

I often get asked what?s the best digital camera to buy. My answer is always: it doesn?t matter if you buy Nikon, Canon, Pentax, Olympus or Fuji they?re all excellent quality cameras. If you took a picture with each brand of those cameras (of the same mega pixels) you?d be hard pressed to tell which one was the better quality image. What you have to do is try each camera and see how it feels. Does it fit comfortably in your hand? Can you find all the controls easily? Do the controls make sense?

The other question is: How many mega pixels? My answer is always ? what do you want to do with the camera? Are you looking to just take pictures for the web? Then you won?t need a huge mega pixel camera. Do you want to make reprints of your digital files? Then, once you decide what size you?ll want to print, that will dictate if you need a smaller or larger file size. On some cameras you can adjust the file size from smaller to larger. My advice is to buy the most mega pixels you can afford. You can always make the image smaller, but you can?t add information to a file that?s too small already.

Other features you might want to consider is how much control you can have over the exposures the camera makes. Some point and shoots will allow you to over ride their automatic controls and let you make exposure adjustments. Digital cameras are very susceptible to damage by water, dirt and grit, so you might want to look into a model that is waterproof. Another great feature that some of the new cameras have is Museum Mode. When you select this it turns off the automatic flash and makes a slow exposure, which will let in more light in dark places ? like museums.

Last but not least is to make sure you buy a good sized storage card. There are many sizes like from 256 Megabytes to over 2 Gigabytes of storage. The larger the card the more images of higher quality you?ll be able to store.

Choose wisely and you?ll enjoy years of digital picture taking!
