What is a digital camera

There are hundreds of digital cameras makes, models and accessories out there, here is a list of buzz-words you may need to know;

• Megapixels - The number of pixels in a camera's image sensor is very important. Generally speaking, as the number of megapixels increases, so does the image quality and the size of the enlargements you can make from your digital files. Today, cameras with four to six megapixels can produce images up to 13x19 inches that would really be spectacular.
• Zoom Range - The zoom range on a lens specifies the wide-angle to telephoto settings. A camera lens with a 2X zoom range will not get you as "close" to a subject as a camera lens with a 4X zoom range. For sports and portraits, consider a camera with a lens having at least a 4X to 8X zoom.
• White Balance - Virtually all digital cameras have a white balance control. The control is designed to make the whites in a scene look white, and therefore make all the other colours in the scene reproduce accurately. Many pros suggest not shooting on "automatic white balance." Rather, they suggest setting the white balance for the specific lighting condition — "cloudy,'' "sunny,'' "shady,'' etc...
• Memory & Memory Cards - The amount of memory within a digital camera controls how many pictures your camera can hold. Basically, the higher the resolution of an image (see Megapixels above) then the more memory the image will use within the camera. Memory Cards are removeable media (up to 512MB) that can hold your pictures while you use another memory card for additional pictures.
