Digital Cameras

Maybe you have decided to up the level of content of your blog to include pictures. What better way to do so than with a digital camera. Digital cameras are great. You can take as many pictures as you want, without development costs, you don't need a scanner, and you get your photo instantly.

Here is what I look for in a camera:

Pixels - Usually this will be around the lens area. I usually go mid-range, not the highest, because the camera will be more expensive, but I don't want the lowest either. Just remember, the more pixels you have, the better the picture will be.

Comfort - Look for a camera that is comfortable to you. Try to find a salesperson who will cover the options with you, and definately don't impulse buy on a product like this.

Ease of Setup - I don't worry about this step too much, because I am technically minded, and also, I am married to Mr. Technical. Trust me, if I can't get it, Mr. Technical can! However, if you don't have a Mr. Technical in your home, ask how easy it is to set up the camera. Also ask if your model has a docking station. This most likely will make life even easier for you.

Video - Sometimes it is fun to be able to do little video clips. If this is a feature you want, many point and shoot cameras include it.

Of course, it doesn't hurt to bring a technical friend with you, if you have someone.
