Digital Cameras Vs Camera Phones

Taking pictures is easy but taking beautiful pictures is another story. Anyone can point and shoot pictures, but not everyone can capture amazing photos – photos that inspire, gives an awe and not just looking pretty. This is the difference between tourist, amateur photographer and a pro.

It sure looks easy to take pictures but conceptualizing and thinking about what and how to do those pictures is hard work. There are a lot of online tutorials on the Internet and you can proceed to learn the basics. With motivation, great interest and hard work you'll be taking pictures like a pro. But even though a lot of people say that skills matters most - high quality matters a lot too especially if you're after for modern style photography or macro photography.

However, if you're just a regular John like me – its enough to take good quality shots and show them off to friends. Take pictures of beautiful places, people and unforgettable moments. Upload them on the Internet and put them on Social Sites for all to see.

I've got a list of Cameras that are pretty cheap for a regular guy/girl (like me). They've got good camera features to take clear shots.

Canon PowerShot A480
  • this one has a MultiMedia Card and SD Memory Card support
  • This is a mid range camera, affordable, point and shoot and has a fast response
  • Digital zoom 4x
  • weighs 140g,
  • has an Optical zoom 3.3x
  • and has a resolution of 10 Megapixels
  • it's pretty cheap around £75 or more

Nikon D90
  • This camera has an optical viewfinder
  • This is an DSLR, obviously
  • supports SD Memory Card
  • pretty heavy in 620g
  • it's got 12.3 Megapixels resolution
  • it's a high priced camera, it costs around £600 or more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FT1
  • just point and shoot, careful with the zoom and shutter buttons though
  • It has MultiMedia Card support
  • Optical zoom is 4.6x
  • Its got 12.1 Megapixels resolution
  • weighs 162.5g
  • has digital zoom 4x
  • it is built to last, a practical camera
  • It costs around £240 or more

These are the ones I recommend. One is a mid range mobilephone – affordable, average features, fast. The second is a tested and trusted DSLR camera – high powered, focused, heavy duty and is great for beginner photographers. The third is an all purpose camera – durable, good features, portable. If you're saving money, its best to get these cameras from online deals. Online deals offer lots of discount and gives great free gifts.

If you're a mobilephone enthusiast, you would notice that the camera resolutions are now also available to mobilephones. Mobilephone companies are now racing towards who gets the best camera features packed inside a tiny mobilephone. There are touchscreen phones with 12 megapixels, a slider with 8 megapixels camera and even a 5 Megapixel with Carl Zeiss Lens and Xenon Flash takes better pictures than those with higher resolutions.

It's convenient to have a camera and a mobilephone in one device. It saves space and very convenient too. If you're interested in those, these are three mobilephones that I urge you to take a look at. They got the best features of a digital camera that a mobilephone can take.
