The problem with technology is that it doesn't stand still even for a minute so you can't get to grips with it before it has moved on and digital cameras functions are a prime example,many of these functions the average buyer has either no need for or just doesn't understand. If you were to buy a digital camera tomorrow, what functions would you want to see it have as standard? If this is your first camera then you must be honest with yourself if you have no idea what functions you would want your camera to have.
Will this be purely for casual use for special occasions, for example? As far as cost is concerned, no matter what your needs and wants are for the device, your financial resource will play a huge part in dictating the type of model you will buy. You also have to consider the power of the computer and the printer you will be connecting it to for editing and printing needs.Many computer packages available have digital cameras, software and other accessories so you can have a complete home studio system. Fortunately you won't have to pay for the image editing software when you buy a digital camera but if you are after a printer or cartridges, these will be an extra expense that will have to be catered for.
Other items, other than the printer, the ink cartridges and special paper are the memory cards which once again will need to be purchased. To get the best pictures it will be necessary to set the camera to the maximum number of pixels it can operate at. When fitted to a digital camera, its internal memory is usually only good for the storage of a couple of high resolution shots. The storage capacity of some current storage cards can go up to 32 gigabytes,hundreds, sometimes many thousands of images can be stored on these larger capacity storage cards.
Before you buy it is good idea to test and check if you feel comfortable holding and using it.

When buying your digital camera, look for a large LCD screen version which many newer cameras have as standard,large screens make taking the picture so much easier.
Some lower specification versions only have a LCD screen and the larger this is, If you want yours to have a good zoom facility, you should opt for those with an optical zoom lens.
