Picture Perfect

Greg Harper: The biggest problem when buying a digital still camera is you walk into the camera store and the salesperson is immediately trying to sell you mega pixels and various models. Mega pixels don’t matter. At the end of the day, mega pixels are not the most important thing. So let me give you a few pieces of advice for when you’re out buying a camera. The first thing is, the camera you have with you is the most important camera. These cameras are very nice and small. You can stick them in your pocket and they’re very easy to use. The problem is, however, the lens is not very big. Some of these cameras do have optical stabilization, which is very important. Especially when you have a viewfinder in the back, you tend to shake a little bit when you’re shooting. Optical stabilization will solve that problem. This will keep your pictures looking sharp and not blurry. A compromise to that is a camera that has a very good lens. It is still very small but it doesn’t fit in your pocket. Now, if you’re really looking for the best that you can shoot with digital cameras today, you’re going to want to get the really big lens. It has a high-speed shutter so you can take lots of pictures and not worry about shutter or cycle time. At the end of the day I’d rather have the picture that is there as opposed to not having the camera and not taking the picture.
