Low Cost v. High Cost Digital Cameras

The price range for Digital Cameras is a giant spectrum ranging from under $100 to over $10,000, so when you decide what your needs and wishes are for your camera, then you can start to narrow your choices. The first question you should ask is how many Megapixels you think you'll need. For amateur photographers who wish to share their photographs with friends and family over the Web exclusively, then there really is little difference between inexpensive Digital Cameras and professional ones. Because the image quality of most computer monitors (~72 dpi) is relatively limited, the difference between a low cost and a high cost Digital Camera picture is negligible. However, if you plan to reproduce your photographs on anything larger than standard 4 x 6 inch paper, then you'll need to invest in a higher end camera.

Higher end Digital Cameras offer the photographer many options during image capture and also in playback. Some lower cost Digital employ optical viewfinders which don't require power, while higher cost cameras utilize an LCD preview screen which is a small, battery powered monitor that allows the user to compose and review images or even video. The quality of LCD screens varies depending on manufacturer and price as well. Most Digital Cameras come equipped with internal flashes, but of course the quality and versatility of these flashes varies with price. Some cameras have red-eye control, an important feature if you will be taking a lot of photographs of people. You don't have to spend a fortune on a Digital Camera, but the higher cost cameras generally have more features and offer the user more creative control.
