If you are looking for a new camera, or you are just thinking to replace your old film camera<\/a>. If so, you may want to look at a digital camera.<\/p>\n Unlike film cameras, digital cameras<\/a> are lighter, offer more features, can store more images, and are reasonably priced. However, the search for a new digital camera<\/a> can be daunting, especially for new customers who are unfamiliar with digital cameras and their functions<\/a>.<\/p>\n Therefore, in this article we will examine some points when choosing a digital camera.<\/p>\n Camera resolution<\/strong><\/p>\n Generally, the resolution of a digital camera should reflect the use of the camera<\/a>. If you are a general photographer and only want to put images on your blog<\/a>, website or in an email, a 1 megapixel camera should be sufficient.<\/p>\n If you are printing<\/a> your own images, such as a family portrait, you will need a camera with at least 3 megapixels capacity.<\/p>\n The higher the number of megapixels<\/a>, the higher the quality of printed photos and the size at which those photos will look good.<\/p>\n Camera connection<\/strong><\/p>\n Older digital camera used to connect to computer via serial port<\/a>, cameras now connect directly to PC via USB connection.<\/p>\n Unlike the serial port, a USB<\/a> connection is faster and easier to set up. Most new cameras now come equipped with USB 2 port capabilities. Like USB, USB 2 will allow users to upload<\/a> images to the computer but at faster transfer speeds.<\/p>\n Storage medium<\/strong><\/p>\n Most cameras use a Compact<\/a> Flash card or a Memory Stick. These cards are about 1\/4 the size of a credit card and can hold up to 4GB of images. If your camera does not come with a built-in USB port, you will need a card reader.<\/p>\n This can be a hassle as you will need to install additional software<\/a> and hardware when transferring images from the camera to the computer.<\/p>\n
