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 mega pixels (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. |
