The internet, or more specifically a few choice websites can make you a whole lot smarter when it comes to buying a new digital camera on the cheap. Your web browser is the ultimate big box store, devoid of annoying sales people, and more than willing to answer your every question.

While far from being a professional photographer, I believe I have quite a good understanding of it as a hobby and I know what to look for in a camera. I have been using a Nikon D40x for quite a while and as I started to realize that I have reached its limitations, I decided I had to keep up with the trend in technology and move on to a new model.This olympus digital camera and this digital photography small or big cameras ? should help.

A second LCD screen that shows the shooting parameters. Great if you messed with the settings and forgot what mode you are shooting in. Built in focus motor, allowing the photographer to use cheaper lenses! (With my old D40x I had to buy lenses with focus motor, which cost around $250 a piece. The motor-less ones for this camera are in the range of $100).

The Casio digital cameras reviews also include one about the Exilim Zoom EX-Z750. This camera has excellent features, settings and quality images.

For a while I was looking to buy a Canon 40D, until I spotted the new Nikon D90. Here’s a list of pros and cons I came up with after several weeks of using it.

The Nikon does not come with the raw editor so you would have to purchase that separately. The flash is 1/200 of a second. The D80 has 10.2 megapixels and a two and a half inch viewing screen.

I wanted to get a DSLR, but I couldn’t even get close to buying one, the price was too high. Also, I wanted something more portable, preferably a camera that would fit in my pocket. I didn’t want to carry it around in a bag. Nevertheless, I needed one that would give me decent control over aperture and focus. After reading a lot of reviews, I decided to try the Canon PowerShot G10. I bought it less than a month ago, and already took close to 10,000 shots. Here is what I think about it so far.

The built-in scene settings satisfy any amateur photographer’s needs. The list is quite exhaustive, and includes night, sunset, underwater and snow modes. The effects worked as if I had used Photoshop on the raw picture, which saved me a lot of time.
