Digital Cameras

The camera started its life as a black and white film based one, which were replaced by the colour film cameras. Usually, the people at that time trained themselves for years together for being able to take goo looking photographs. In this era of technology and development, every person who has a camera can claim to be an amateur photographer. With the advent in technology, digital cameras have evolved as a boon for a common man who wishes to capture the precious memories of his life. Speaking of Digital Cameras, there are mainly two types of cameras available, the DSLRs for the professional ones, and the simple point and shoot cameras for everyday use. The choice of buying a DSLR or a P&S depends upon your needs of photography. For Publishing purposes or professional photography that requires extreme details and sharpness in a picture, go with DSLRs. However, for a everyday and portable use, P&S cameras score higher than DSLRs. Most of the manufacturers and people boast of the high megapixel count on their digital cameras. However, this must certainly not be the reason for you to buy that 25 MP camera... If  in the right hands, a 6 MP camera produces excellent results. Also, look for the type of sensor used in the camera : CCD or CMOS. A CCD camera usually shows better results but it may be a bit expensive than CMOS sensors. A CMOS sensor is usually larger in size than a CCD sensor, hence resulting in larger number of pixels getting exposed by light thereby resulting in a sharper image. However, every coin has two faces.. If you buy a CMOS based camera, there are less chances of it to fit in your pocket. :(  Yup, all those ultra portable digital cameras that you see use a CCD sensor. Dont worry, I'm also coming towards price also. The DSLRs can cost from 40,000 to more than 3,00,000 INR. However, a basic P&S camera just costs about 10,000 INR.
