In recent months the digital SLR market has heated up with giants like Sony rushing in and incumbents like Canon producing ever better cameras.Perhaps the most exciting news is the release of the Canon 400D also known as the Digital Rebel XTi. The Digital Rebel series kick-started the consumer DSLR market three years ago with the 300D and the latest version certainly delivers. You get an increase

As the name suggests, prosumer cameras lie between consumer cameras (i.e. point-and-shoots) and professional cameras (like digital SLRs). This is true of most prosumers when it comes to size, features and price.Prosumers put their extra size (compared to point-and-shoots) to good use. Typically they have more optical zoom: for instance a whopping 12X zoom in the Sony DSC H5. Prosumers usually

Red eye happens when the light from the built-in flash on your digital camera is reflected from the eyes of your subject and takes the red colour of the blood vessels. It is an unnerving effect and certainly spoils the mood of many photos. Fortunately there are a number of ways of dealing with the problem.One way is turn on as many lights as possible if you are shooting indoors. Most camera

In the world of digital cameras perhaps the most exciting models are the ultracompacts: sleek machines that can fit in your shirt pocket and still take great photos. And among ultracompacts Sony’s Cybershot DSC-T series is certainly one of the best and most popular.There are several models in the series at different price ranges. The Sony Cybershot T5 has a 5 megapixel sensor and comes in four

Some digital cameras like the Canon A620 give you the option to manually adjust exposure settings: a great feature that will help you become a better photographer.Exposure refers to the amount of light let into the camera while shooting pictures. It depends on two variables: shutter-speed and aperture. Shutter-speed determines the length of time that the camera shutter is open; the faster the

While digital photos can be enjoyed on your computer or TV, there is no substitute for prints which you can hold in your hands and hang on your walls. Fortunately there is a great selection of reasonably priced photo printers available today.Canon printers are famous for their picture quality and the Canon PIXMA iP4200 delivers with its proprietary FINE technology which uses tiny droplets to

The first thing you notice about the 6-megapixel Coolpix S6 is its sleek design; the camera is just an inch thick and weighs less than 500 grams. But look closer and you will notice a great set of features as well.Despite its small size, the S6 comes with a 3 inch LCD screen as well as speakers. It also comes with a slide-show feature called Pictmotion which combines your pictures and music to

The rise of the consumer-level digital SLR is one of the most exciting trends in digital cameras allowing amateur photographers access to tools that can take near-professional quality photos. SLR stands for Single Lens Reflex and probably the most significant feature of an SLR camera is the ability to remove and change the lens giving the photographer a much wider range of options: a zoom lens to

A digital camera will never be a substitute for a full-fledged video camera but if you want to shoot short video clips it’s often a convenient and inexpensive option.When it comes to video quality the most important numbers are the resolution and the frame rate. For decent quality make sure the camera can shoot at a resolution of 640 X 480 at 30 fps. Another important factor is the maximum length

Consumer level digital cameras are often referred to as point and shoot since they allow you to take pictures with very little effort. However they often have some fairly sophisticated shooting options available for the more adventurous photographer.Most cameras come with a number of scene specific modes where you select the basic type of picture: like landscape or portrait and the camera will

Optical and digital zoom are among the most prominently advertised features of digital cameras but the two are very different in their value and camera buyers should be aware of the difference.Optical zoom is when the camera magnifies the image through the physical movement of the lens and it is achieved without any significant loss of quality. Digital zoom, on the other hand, simply means that

One of the most important factors in selecting a digital camera is the number of megapixels of resolution it offers. A digital photo consists of millions of dots called pixels. A million pixels is called a megapixel. Thus higher megapixel cameras have more pixels in the photo which in turn means they produce pictures with greater detail.Higher resolution is especially handy if you want to print

The physical design of a digital camera, especially its size, plays a big role in how comfortable it is to use and should be one of the first things you research.The smallest cameras , like the Sony Cybershot DSC-T9, are called ultracompacts. They fit in your shirt-pocket and are great for taking everywhere on vacation. They do take good photos but usually have a shorter battery life than larger
