Usually, when buying a camera, we are faced with a huge variety of models and manufacturers. First of all, the buyer pays attention to a well-known brand that has excellent characteristics. But at the same time, you have to pay a lot for a reliable brand. Therefore, when buying a camera, you can be sure that by choosing a device with the same parameters as that of a well-known company, you will receive the goods no worse. But at the same time, there is always a risk. In order to choose an inexpensive and high-quality camera, you must know the basic selection criteria.
Instructions
Step 1
The matrix is one of the most important points when buying a camera. Each technology has its own specific advantages and disadvantages. But the principle is the same everywhere - the larger the sensor, the better the resulting image. • The CCD is distinguished by the best quality and sensitivity to light.
• CMOS matrices are more common, they do not require large production costs and have less power consumption.
Step 2
Pixels. The detail of the photo, the size of the resulting image, depends on this parameter. For photos in a family album, 2-3 megapixels are enough. In the event that you are buying a camera for amateur photography, 3-5 megapixels will suit you.
Step 3
Lens. The main characteristic of the lens is zoom. Magnification (zoom) can be digital and optical. Photos taken with digital zoom are of lower quality because the images are enlarged after the photo is taken. The principle of optical zoom is that the object is brought closer by changing the focal length of the lens.
Step 4
Focusing range. To get the best possible macro, the camera should have as close focusing distance as possible. The closest focusing distance is indicated by the focusing distance in macro mode.
Step 5
Flash. For any camera, the need for a flash is undeniable. But when choosing a device, you need to pay attention to the flash control function (it will allow you to photograph objects at night, even at close range).
Step 6
Camera memory. The camera does not always have sufficient built-in memory. Therefore, the camera must be able to save photos to external media.
