Hi,
I would like to buy a digital camera, but I don't know anything about. Where should I go to research? Thank you.

How to choose the right digital camera
(5 posts) (3 voices)-
Digital cameras are not so cheap as film ones today: due to the ongoing trend towards electronics, connectivity and the "virtual" world, most of the people dropped interest in the "old" chemical imaging system and just started to buy digital.
This is cause of a sheer drop also in the prices of classic cameras: you can buy astonishing film devices on the second hand market at risible prices today.That said, and just to answer to your question the straightest way, there are plenty of primers and articles about this topic; try and google for it and you'll discover even too many of them:
http://www.google.com/search?q=How+to+choose+the+right+digital+cameraYesim, do you need a camera for yourself or is it going to be a gift?
Moreover:
- Do the future owner of such camera know anything about photography?
- What kind of photography will the camera mainly be used for? General photography, family life and holidays? Macro of insects and flowers? Landscapes? Buildings and architecture? Sport photography? Mission to Mars?
- Is size a priority?
- Any rough idea of a budget?
Please provide us with some hints, and we will help and put you on the right path.

Hello Kirpi,
thank you for very useful suggestions. About your questions: actually, I need a camera for my family life and holidays, I don't need a sofisticated camera; solid, easy to use and good results is enough. It's better if it's compact, has zoom and of course not very expensive!
I visited google but now I am so confused than before. If you help me, really I'll be glad.Have a nice day.

One of the best small cameras you might buy today is the Canon Powershot G11 (or G10, which has just been superseded by the G11 model and thus would most probably sell at a bargain price). While not the cheapest camera on the market, it is really handy and offers a set of features which could rival many bulkier (and much more expensive) cameras. If you can afford it, I suggest you consider it as a real advice.
In case you are looking for a much cheaper choice, what about the Fuji FinePix Z30 digital camera? It would really make sense for family snapshots.Posted on 28 September 2009 - 18:06:16 #
