Digital Camera Comparison: How to Do It Yourself

By Gugu Maseko


Digital cameras are growing in demand and use. The capturing of images without the need for film is the greatest advantage of the digital camera. A digital camera although with many functions does not need the complicated mechanical components of a standard film camera.

With the upsurge of home computers it means that almost anyone can store and then play with the images on their own pc. A series of ones and zeros is how all digital information is stored and a digital camera images are no different. Digital cameras still use lenses in much the same way that conventional cameras do. All the budding digital camera enthusiast needs to know is that despite the difference in how the image is captured, the ultimate effect is the same.

Images seen on good and more expensive digital cameras are captured using an alternative method of a charged coupled device commonly known as a CCD which you may have heard of. Less expensive digital cameras us a complementary metal oxide semi-conductor or CMS device which does the same work of capturing an image and although some believe it could replace the CCD, this is not likely.

The price of a digital camera nowadays have been depreciating, one of the main reasons of this is because of the introduction of CMOS image sensors, this is because CMOS sensors are less expensive and are easier to manufacture than CCD sensors. The CCD and CMOS devices capture light like tiny solar collectors both achieving the same effect but just by differing methods.

If you find yourself in the market for a digital camera then some useful information is listed below.

Image quality is important or it will be waste of time taking them so look for the highest megapixel range digital camera within your price range.

Always choose a digital camera with an optical zoom as the optical zoom of a camera will enable you take pictures without any distortion.

Today's nickel metal hydride rechargeable batteries are very powerful and last for around a 1,000 charges so always use these if you want to save money.

Many people are just happy to point and shoot but if you want your camera to do a little more than try to buy one with more functions. Think 512MB as a bare minimum with today's high resolution cameras so if you're a photo junkie you can takes pictures of just about anything.

Digital cameras are now very tiny compared to a few years ago so you can actually carry around a high spec camera in your pocket and still be able to take fantastic pictures. So by doing this you won't feel as if you are a journalist or nature photographer wherever you go.

By using this information you shouldn't go to far wrong when you go to buy your digital camera. The future of photography has moved on and digital cameras are that future.
