canon digital camera 30x optical zoom image
Arriale
I was wondering what is a good Mega Pixel for a digital camera. Also I would like to know a good resolution, zoom, optical zoom, and what not. I am trying to find a good camera but I would like to understand more of the quality of it. Also if anyone knows any good brands that would be great.
Answer
Depends on sensor size, something like 1/1,8" or 1/2,3" is very small and definitely is hurt by to many megapixels. Think under 10 if possible hard to find that.
The biggest sensors like fourth third/APS-C/Full frame are much bigger so can handle having more megapixels without noisy performance issues.
So it really depends on what type of camera you buy, a system camera or a DSLR has a interchangable lens and usually a nice big sensor. They are not cheap but the image quality is quite allot better then compacts.
Zoom, well.. eeh depends on the use. They sell these superzooms these days with 30x zoom. That is nice to have but there is a sacrifice made image quality. Any zoom lens makes sacrifices it is just a fact of life. A zoom both has to perform at the wide and tele end. So either you have very expensive heavy glass but great image quality or you use cheaper glass and end up with not that strong image quality. Think not as sharp or not as nice contrast. Super zooms indeed offer allot of zoom but usually at a sacrifice in quality. Not to mention hand holding a lens that offers a 720mm effective zoom.. yeah. Even the best image stabilisation will have troubles.
Another thing to note is ergonomy, can you handle the buttons, the menu the functions. It would be sad to own a camera that is pretty darn good but because you don't understand/can't handle the menu you don't use right.
So to buy a camera go to a shop, yes go to a shop and HOLD the camera, feel its weight its button placement see its menu's and take that in account.
Also you have forgotten one huge issue ;)
BUDGET, really we could say you should buy a Nikon D700, a full frame DSLR [drool] but.. if you only have $300 to invest well we better not even begin about it.
So set yourself a budget, go to a store hold the camera. Understand that how more zoom how more sacrifices are made. Some of those super zoom cameras definitely push the technology a bit to far for their own good. And enjoy photography. Make many pictures .. enjoy it.
Oh and brand wise, Canon, Nikon are nice, Fuji is good to Panasonic is nice to.
Brands not to even though, Kodak, Vivitar and GE, think chinese rebranded knock offs.. some might be good for the money but seriously just don't
In the end every brand has good and bad models so read reviews and handle the camera in the shop.

How do i know if a digital camera is good?
Tacson
I'm new to photography, i want to get a new digital camera, how do i differentiate if the digital camera is good? (good for focusing, good iso, good shutter speed, exposure?) the megapixels of the digital camera doesn't guarantees good ,sharp, focused photos from what i know.
Answer
If you are looking for a compact camera, the best ones are in the 10~12MegaPixel range, and about 4x to 7x zooms.
Too many people fall for huge super zoom lenses, such as 30x zooms. However their optical quality is not as good as the smaller zoom range that I recommend, and some of those super zooms are downright awful. So to get the best optical quality, 4x to 7x are usually the best lenses.
Also, too many people fall for overkill in MegaPixels. For a compact camera, 10Mp to 12Mp is ideal. If you go higher, then the camera's low light performance suffers, as well as the shutter lag is increased. All those extra pixels require more processing speed to process - which just slows down the camera. This is especially true for compact cameras as to keep them inexpensive, they have slow electronics.
The individual models I recommend are the Canon G12, Canon S100, Nikon P7100 or Nikon P310.
These are the best compact cameras in my view, and they all have manual exposure controls (as well as automatic), and all but the Nikon P310, they all have physically larger sensors than the average camera.
But if you are on a budget, the Canon SX130 is the best inexpensive camera in my view. They are getting harder to find, so a substitute would be the SX150 - but I think the performance of the SX130 is a bit better, as Canon has crossed the overkill threshold somewhat with the SX150.
