Camera Review Sites

There are so many digital camera review sites, it can be very confusing to know what to do. Are you thinking about buying a new digital camera?

Here are a few camera tips to help you choose what camera to buy. Start with answering these two important questions:

1. Do you have a budget on how much you can spend on your new camera?

2. What size camera are you willing to carry around with you?

Answering these two questions are essential before you try to pick a camera. Generally, the bigger the camera means a bigger price and more features.

Technology has made the quality issue less important than every before. You can now get great digital photographs with very affordable and small cameras. Even the sensors on cell phones are big enough to get high quality, pictures to look good when printed in snapshot sizes.

You can get a general idea on the different types of camera here: Cameras and Instructions. Realize that there are now many "in-between" variations in size and features, that you really can easily find a camera that's the perfect fit for you.

I use these three websites frequently:

Steve's Digicams

Amazon

Steve's Digicams and dpReview are extremely thorough and give you technical breakdowns. Reading their "conclusion" section is a big time saver for you.

Amazon gives you consumer opinions that are very useful. Read the one star negatives first. See if their comments are relative to what you want when buying.

Read the 5 star comments next. See if their remarks talk about the features you are looking for. You'll find out what people have already experienced while using the camera you are considering.
