How to choose a digital camera ?

Too many digital cameras available right now and that is why it is so confusing to select one which could match your criteria. Let's see how -


List out feature you prioritized more than its price.

Look for additional features you might need, such as USB or IEEE 1394 (FireWire) connectivity (to connect the camera to the appropriate port on your computer), a battery-time-remaining indicator, an AC adapter or video-out connections for outputting to a television.

Look for quick auto focus

You should always have immobilizer for a superb photography experience.



Decide if you want to capture video with the camera.
 If you want true HD capabilities, look for 1080 resolution video. If you want to catch close to professional or professional sound, look for a camera with microphone input.

Do not compromise with a high quality glass lens.

Remember that megapixels do not equal good pictures.
Nearly all digital cameras use CCD's as the sensing element. This is what takes the place of film. The resolution is the number of pixels in the captured image. Computer images are divided into little dots called pixels. The more pixels, the more detailed the image can be. Here is a guide to choosing resolution, estimating the size print you can make from each:
  • 1.3 Megapixel = 1280x960: Great 4x6's, acceptable 5x7's.
  • 2 Megapixel = 1600x1200: Pretty good 8x10's.
  • 3 Megapixel = 2048x1536: Great 8x10's, good 11x14's.
  • 4 Megapixel = 2272 x 1704: Great 11x14's, and acceptable 16x20's.
  • 5 Megapixel = 2560x1920: Pretty good 16x20's.
  • 6 - 10 Megapixels = At this point you are usually limited by the lens, not the pixels.

Casual photographers are satisfied with bigger prints from each size, while those who like to look at 8x10's from a distance of three inches think I am being too generous in the above evaluations.

Make sure your camera has a warranty that you feel comfortable with.
