Digital Camera Must-Know Specs,
by Sebastian Cork
Having a digital camera these days is just like owning a mobile phone, computer, or tablet. People have come to realize the importance of having one and that's mainly because being able to capture and store memories has never been this easy before. While we have always been fascinated by the entertainment and convenience in communication brought by gadgets like laptops and smart phones, digital cameras are actually very advanced in terms of technology as well and they too are becoming an essential part of one's gadget collection. However, shopping and purchasing the perfect or ideal digital camera is not a walk in the park. Keep in mind that there are more than a hundred brands and each brand offers various different models. Now each of these models and units has different and distinctive features and specifications, but the question is, should you really need all those features? If not, then what should you be looking out for in a digital camera? Below is a technical guide on what generally to look for.
When it comes to the most imperative factors when picking digital cameras, the sensor tops the list. For experts, they think that it is the most significant requirement to consider if the consumer is looking for a camera that can produce high quality images. Even if there is really no perfect or definite method of knowing the exact quality of an image from a digital camera, someone who is willing to understand and learn anything about the sensor will have an edge in determining the right digital camera for their specific needs. The camera sensor is technically defined as a chip located inside the camera, and the same is covered by light sensitive pixels. What the sensor does is get light using the lens and then converts such light into a digital image. For added info, you must also know that the larger the sensor is, the better the quality of the image is.
Next to consider is the video capability of the digital camera. Perhaps about two or three decades ago, cameras were limited in taking still photos only, but with the emergence of better digital technology, the type of camera you should be looking out for in stores must have a video capture capability. This means that you don't have to separately purchase a video recording camera if you're content on capturing important and memorable moments in seconds.
Next, have a look at the shutter speed which is the feature that determines the time that passes in between the press of the button for taking a picture and the actual taking of the picture. However, you should be reminded that most digital cameras have significantly slow shutter speeds. In fact, the usual consequence of focusing when the button is pressed can prolong the delay for a few seconds. As a result, there's a good chance that you will not get the kind of image you have seen when you pushed the button to take the picture. Instead you get a slightly different version as the subjects may have likely moved or have been altered during the delay. So if you are really particular about that, then you must get a camera that features a faster shutter speed.
Furthermore, another option you may want to have in your digital camera is added connectivity other than just a USB. Obviously, transferring photos is done through USB connection but the modern and latest models of cameras today have other connectivity option like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Wi-Fi is essential for you to be able to connect your device to the web for software updates or even direct web uploading of photos. Bluetooth on the other hand can be used for printing the photos instantly using a Bluetooth-enabled printer.
So next time you contemplate purchasing a new digital camera, keep these factors in mind, however they aren't the only things you must give consideration to. There are other pertinent items such as the brand, price, and other features and specifications like memory, flash, and the design of the camera.
