Which Camera Should I Get


Which Camera Should I Get?

With the wide variety of digital cameras on the market today, most beginning photographers ask, "Which camera should I buy?" Should I also get a strobe, a wide angle lens, a close-up lens? Which camera should I get? No person can tell you which camera is best to purchase unless they have compared them all, and that is highly unlikely. Most opinions are based on that person's use of a specific camera/housing.

Basic Features to Consider When Buying a Camera

Many people shoot in what is called Automatic mode, which allows the camera to make all the settings for you. But most importantly, you have to learn the advance features and techniques of digital photography in order to have a best decision which one to buy. The following guide will briefly describes some basic features you must consider when purchasing a camera. Or if you already have a camera, you have to be familiar with these features.

Megapixel/Memory Size

Many think that the higher number of megapixels a camera has, the better the quality of photos. But sometimes it not that true. If you're doing professional photography, you will want to get at least an 8 pixel size camera, or larger, for larger size prints if needed. But, if you're doing a normal photography, purchase at least 3-5 megapixels, which enables you to make 4x6 to 8x10 prints. Most cameras these days will start at this size.

Image Stabilization

This will help to reduce the blur that occurs from the movement of a camera or subject. You still must learn to steady your shots, but image stabilization can often assist and or warn you when the ambient light for the shot is too low or when the camera is having difficulty focusing on the subject.

Menu Controls

How efficient and easy or difficult to access the controls of the camera?

If you plan on using your camera a lot, beyond the simple point and-shoot mode, you will want camera controls to be easily accessible. At best, a cameras exposure setting (aperture, shutter speed, and other modes) should be accessed outside the camera.

Optical Zoom vs. Digital Zoom

Without getting too technical, digital zoom means that the subject in the camera is enlarged almost like when viewing something through magnifying glass. Optical Zoom features are not efficient underwater due to the waters density which results in too much "digital noise".

If you are new to photography in general it is much easier to start out with only the camera using the built in strobe. Once you somewhat master using the camera you can then decide whether to make the investment in an external strobe and additional lenses.
