Understand that the best compact digital camera for you might be different for someone else. In all depends on your needs and the budget you have available. A digital camera with a 3.1 mega pixel resolution is usually enough to produce pictures that look like a film print on a 4 by 6 print. Moving up to a digital camera with a 5.1 mega pixel resolution will provide a sharper image at the same print size. Can everyone tell the difference? No they can�t. When shopping for a camera, don�t be mesmerized by claims that you must have the very highest resolution to be happy with your digital pictures.So what sort of camera is right for you?The biggest thing to keep in mind when buying a digital camera is what you plan on using the camera for. For example, if you want a small, easy to carry camera for taking photos at parties and emailing them to friends, you probably want a small, ultra-light camera. These cameras are point-and-shoots with little or no zoom and a relatively low resolution, but the small resolution won�t matter unless you�re printing the photos larger than 4×6, and the ultra-small size of these cameras makes them easy to drop into a purse or shirt pocket for a night out.A digital camera which offers a resolution of 5 mega pixels is normally considered a good camera. The weight of the digital camera also goes a long way in camera selection. Once upon a time digital cameras used to weigh one kilogram but with technological advancement they have become very compact and sleek. These modern cameras now come with zoom facilities. photography classes
