Before you think about buying a camera, you should know how to buy a digital camera. You should look at many different cameras in your price range and use a checklist to record the specifications. After you have all the information for different cameras, you can then compare the specifications to narrow down your options.

It is always important to review as many cameras as possible to see which one has everything you need to take clear and colorful pictures. The megapixels are the first thing you should consider, and then consider the zoom for optical and digital.

All camera manufacturers have been guilty of over hyping the latest and greatest technical features on their models for some time now. Some photography aficionados have even gone so far as to suggest that manufactures latest tech features have more to do with marketing timing, then true technical advancements.

It is always nice to be able to select different modes when shooting different subjects. The flash is also important. The main concern with a digital camera is also the internal memory and memory card. You want to be able to hold as many pictures on the memory card without uploading to the computer.

When you are thinking about how to buy a digital camera, consider the battery drain as well. You want a camera that does not drain the battery quickly.

In the $500 to $1000 your looking at a cornucopia of entry digital level digital SLR cameras. Models like the Canon XTi Digital Rebel, and the Nikon D40 are good examples.

When all is said and done, and your enjoying all the great pictures you've taken over the years, the top digital camera is just the one that's captured all your favorite memories. Or, if it's the artist in you that drives your camera purchase, then then same rule applies.

It's the final pictures and images that really matter. There's more than one way (or camera) that can deliver on that promise.
