Finding The Best Buy On A
Digital Camera
by: Steve Gargin
The best buy digital camera is not necessarily the cheapest, but the
one that has the best overall package for your needs. It is important to
check on the various functions and accessories before you compare prices
to ensure that you find the best buy digital camera. The main reason that
people want to buy a digital camera is for convenience rather than using a
traditional film camera and there are a lot of best buy digital camera
deals available.
The first point is to find the best buy digital camera with the highest
resolution you can afford which will normally be at least 2 to 3
megapixels (2 million to 3 million pixels). If you will only output
pictures to a computer monitor (for viewing, Web page use or e-mail) then
the best buy digital camera will be one with a 640-by 480 pixel resolution
and it will provide very satisfactory results. There are very few genuine
best buy digital camera packages with high-resolution and the specified
resolution may only apply to software interpolation rather than the true
optical resolution. To print photographs on a good (at least 720 dots per
inch) color printer you will need to look for the best buy digital camera
with a high resolution.
Many retailers advertise their best buy digital camera as one with a
plastic lens. It is better to buy a digital camera with a 100% glass lens
for the best pictures. You should also look for the best buy digital
camera packages with the most RAM that you can afford. The more RAM the
camera has means that it can store more pictures and does not require
downloading or erasing them as often.
When you are evaluating the best buy digital camera offers you need to
compare optical, as opposed to digital, zoom capabilities. This is one of
the most frequently used features of most digital cameras and you need to
be sure that you have the capability to take the type of close-up shots
that you want to.
Another issue that needs to be considered is whether the best buy
digital camera offer actually includes the accessories that you require.
If you find that you are going to have to purchase additional cables and
software to be able to connect your digital camera to your computer then
it is not going to be the best buy digital camera that you thought it was.
Finally, ensure that you have accounted for any shipping costs before
you make your final decision over which best buy digital camera you
purchase. A lot of unscrupulous retailers will advertise a price for a
best buy digital camera but then charge high shipping costs. |
