What student photographers need to
know about digital cameras

Digital cameraDigital cameras are hot items in the classroom – and it's easy to see why. They're compact, convenient and they let you see your work immediately! With the ability to view their photo creations on the spot, students are given instant feedback on their work. They can immediately know if they've captured a personal masterpiece or need to correct errors – all without the time lag of photo finishing.

When shopping for a digital still camera, students should check out the amazing assortment of sizes, styles and technological features available this year. There's something for everyone.

Fully automatic point-and-shoot cameras with a picture resolution below 1 megapixel are the least expensive options. These are great for producing photos for a Web site or e-mailing memories to family and friends.

For those interested in good quality prints, you can achieve great results at reasonable costs in the 2 to 3 megapixel category. They can produce 4"x 6" photographs – without distortion or pixelation.

Multi-megapixel cameras produce higher resolution images that allow for large, high quality print processing. For 8"x 10" enlargements, your camera should be equipped with a minimum of 3 megapixels. Higher end cameras come equipped with more features, such as advanced exposure controls, but also have a higher price tag.

However, if you're a student aspiring to capture images for National Geographic, a professional digital still camera may be in order. Professional models are capable of producing crisp, clear, vivid images of any size. These cameras feature very high resolution, large memory capacity, expandability and an array of lens alternatives. They are an excellent investment for the photographer-in-training.

The best camera for you doesn't have to be the most expensive. Look for the camera that meets your needs. Before classes start, try researching camera features and styles. You'll certainly find a camera that will make you - or your favourite photo student - smile!
