Questions...
digital camera?
I'm going to buy a cheap, 0 camera soon. The problem is, I don't know what to look for in a camera. a lot of people say megapixels and other technical terms. Can someone explain the terms to me? What's the most important thing to look for? what are the best sites and brands?
Basically, I just need to know... basically everything that makes a good digital camera.
And if you can link me to some good cameras around the 0 price range, that would be nice as well

I am not a camera or photography aficionado, so I cannot offer a super technical review — of which the electronics section here on Amazon is replete with — however what I can say, from a layman’s perspective, is that this camera is unimaginably magnificent.
I got this camera for my birthday and I simply wanted a camera that would provide a good, high-quality and affordable upgrade to my six megapixel Samsung camera that I bought three years ago – also for my birthday. Without even a modicum of hesitation, I can proudly say that this Panasonic camera more than exceeded my expectations.
The 14 MP camera takes clear and crisp photographs and has a smorgasbord of different settings to make the pictures you take precisely how you want it. You can adjust your camera setting before you snap your picture, and you can also conveniently edit it after you take your picture. So you can never really take bad pictures. I find the settings to be really great.
I also wanted a camera that would be good for action pictures. Often times, on my previous camera, I would take moving photographs and the pictures would come out blurry and you can tell that it was taken in motion. In contrast, this camera is wholly different. I tested out several moving pictures and the camera adroitly captures the moment I want captured beautifully, without any kind of visible motion blurriness.
However, I leave the best aspect of this camera till last: the unthinkably great HD video capture. When buying a camera I wanted something that could capture HD videos so I can record different moments in film and store them, and perhaps something that would be good for YouTube videos: I found it. This video camera records gloriously crisp and colorful 720p HD. As good as the quality of the photo camera itself is, I think the video capture function is remarkably better. You simply just cannot fault it.
I have never really been a Panasonic person. I know their stuff is purportedly of good quality and durable, but I have just never bought a product other than batteries. However, after buying this magnificent camera, I think I’ll be investing in a lot more Panasonic products.
I went in with pretty low expectations, and came out thoroughly impressed.
Needless to say, I have been taking a whole lot of pictures on this thing.
By the way, for the record, I haven’t yet read the instruction manual, yet I have no problem operating the camera. I think that speaks wonders of its ease of use.
I have never had a camera so easy to use with a picture that looks incredible. This camera is exactly as the ads on TV describe. . simple and I love the clarity in the pictures.
i`m fairly happy with my purshase, the camera has a really nice small size that lets me carry it in my pocket without any nonesense (its smaller than my wallet). Takes good pictures and great HD video quality even when shooting small detail things like necklaces for example. The inteligent mode does a great job recognizing the scene and its a very simple camera easy to work.
The major failure I`ve come to notice is that in playback function upon zooming and scrolling the picture the touch panel does a lousy job and its function becomes rubish. Other than that the combination touch panel- real buttons do a great job.
I would recomend this camera specially for the price, but advice to look around for better options if touch panel isnt your thing or u can manage with a camera bit larger and not so stylish.
This camera is very good to start with. It’s affordable price, nice sleek design, touch screen and other simple options you can use. The problem is you cannot set the date attach to the photo picture as I had in my old Nikon camera. Overall, this camera is quite good. The video is great. Simple camera but tells alot.
I love this camera mostly because of its size, most other cameras of the same size don’t take as nice pictures. Its super easy to carry around so you’ll end up taking more pictures because you won’t mind having it with you all the time. The Intelligent Auto works pretty well and it has face and scene detection which is great, along with really good image stabilization. Battery life on this thing is great too, You can take about 800-1000 pictures with this thing before you have to charge the battery.
My only con is the low-light capability, its pretty poor. Outdoor or indoors with adequate lighting makes for some excellent pictures, but in low light the pictures come out pretty grainy. And the flash on this camera is rather weak so that doesn’t help much either. You can raise the ISO up and it has a High Sensitivity scene mode as well to try to help make the picture come out, but only adds to the grain. Now this is expected in such a compact camera so I’m not docking because of it, but its definitely worth noting if you’re looking to take a lot of low-light pictures.
Overall this is a great buy, certainly not gonna take the same quality pics as its big brothers but if you want a simple, good quality compact then this is your camera.
well it depends what kind of pix u plan on taking but me personally i look for at least 5 mega pixels and i like the optical zoom i had a pretty good digital camera it was a samsung it was pretty good and around your prince range hope that helps
an important thing to look for is optical zoom. It is better than digital zoom because it does not lose picture quality as it zooms in. I have a Fuji Finepix S5600, it does the job
I recommend that you go to a store like best buy and try out the different models until you find one that is easy for you to use. It sounds like your needs are fairly basic, so I recommend the one my wife got… a Kodak. The interface is fairly intuitive and easy to deal with. At the price range you are describing, most cameras come with about the same bells and whistles. Mega pixels, simply put, is a measure of the resolution of the image. The more mega pixels, the more information in the digital file the camera will take. If, as I suspect, you just want to be able to take nice snapshots, try to get the most mega pixels in the price range you have set. However, don’t sacrifice ease of operation for technical things like mega pixels, because, if the camera is a pain in the butt to use, you will end up hating it.
I’d recommend that you collect a lil more money say 40-50 bucks and look to get a Canon or a Sony . Go for the maximum Optical zoom you can get and at least 6-7 megapixels .
Hello! Do you know if they make any plugins to safeguard against hackers? I’m kinda paranoid about losing everything I’ve worked hard on. Any suggestions?
