what kind of digital camera should you buy?
2008-07-29

Several days ago, one of my friends told me that she wants to buy a digital camera, and ask some helps of choosing. Recently, I searched on the internet, finding some dates of picking out digital camera for modern people. If you itch to upgrade your old camera or just plan to buy a new one but not sure what to look for? Well, here’s a summary of what I think will make or break a compact shooter in 2008. Following with the speedy development of technology, the digital world has entered a new one, emphasizing high quality, fashion and convenient. Everyone including me wants to own a wonderful digital camera which others all begrudge. Now, here are several popular trends of modern digital camera and some advises of selecting.

1. The quality of its body and the appearance surface It’s a very important part, but a lot of people will ignore it. Many digital cameras break down because of getting water or other things, like sands, in it. So, try your best to choose a high quality body, for example, metal material, good leak tightness and the like. To this phenomenon, I recommend the products of OLYMPUS. Its waterproofness is stronger than other brands. µ1030SW of OLYMPUS can be regarded as relatively high-end among the waterproof digital camera. Meanwhile, the camera lens is also concernful. Do not choose the concertina lens if it is possible, because the lens is easy on the fritz. If there are only some cameras of concertina lens, you should select the lens of 2 or 3 division. With a great camera body, you can enjoy yourself on the beach or in the rain not worrying about making your camera breakdown. With regard to the appearance surface, different person give different attention. Some fashion girls or boys towards more fashion and modern appearance or small size, and some office workers do not be concerned about these.

2. The number of election-mega pixel digital camera Pixel is the most concernful part in purchasing camera. Everyone wants to own a high pixel camera. But the higher the pixel is, the higher the price is. Sometime the excessive prices make the buyers stop their steps. So, to the consumer digital camera, I think a camera of 1000-magapixel is enough. Now in the consumer digital camera market, the concern of 1000-magapixel products occupied 30 percentages. In view of this trend, the 1000-magapixel products will take place of 800-magapixel and become of the dominant products of the market. Certainly, in the high end market, you can choose the higher pixel camera according to your professional interests.

3. Zoom digital camera problems It is undeniable that the digital region is in a fast development period. Having introduced advanced technology in digital products makes the consumers pursue high quality photos. Taking the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, not a few fans hope to catch the tremendous scenes of the athletes. And this depends largely on the zoom digital camera problems. You can buy a digital zoom camera, it can make your photo clearer although you are far away from the athlete. Directed to this problem, a lot of merchants launch telephone digital cameras to intensify the sale volume. Of course, this kind of camera is a little expensive, so the standard zoom digital camera is also in the domination. According to a survey of ZDC.COM.CN in April to June 2008, the standard zoom digital camera occupied 70.7% of the proportion of the market

4. Lens quality You may see a description of lens as having numbers of elements or groups in some specification. Sometime a rough guidebook may say more elements or groups are the symbol of high quality lens. However this doesn’t always right, likewise if the lens is described as aspheric, that means the quality of the lens may be high. So when you buy a camera, and you are very concerned about this, please read the specification in detail.

5. Digital camera battery Now, more and more people take care of the battery of camera. One good battery can extend your camera’s service life. What’s more, if you suddenly see a wonderful scene with your camera out of electronic, I think you will be crazy. Therefore, the battery is very critical to your camera. The BP511 of CANON is really great. Its power is very strong though the price is expensive, and the cycling rate is more than 500. However, the battery is very easy to lose power in winter, so you need to pay attention to it, and take measures of avoiding this. A battery bag made from buckskin is just suitable.
