Top 10 Digital Cameras @ bottom prices

April 19th, 2009


“The more megapixels a camera has, the better the pictures.”

A megapixel is one million tiny colored dots in a photo. It seems logical that more megapixels would mean a sharper photo. In truth, though, it could just mean a terrible photo made of more dots. A camera’s lens, circuitry and sensor — not to mention your mastery of lighting, composition and the camera’s controls — are far more important factors.

Pixel Count, expressed as Megapixels, is simply multiplying the number of horizontal pixels by the number of vertical pixels. It's exactly like calculating
area. A 3 MP camera has 2,048 (horizontal) x 1,536 (vertical) pixels, or 3,145,728 pixels. We call this simply 3 MP.

The only advantage of the high resolution of 10 or 12 megapixels: Here you can make better enlargements.

Are you ready???

Here is a list of top 10 Digital Cameras under US $ 250

Olympus Stylus 1050SW Black Digital Camera
(10.1MP, 3x Opt, xD-Picture Card Slot)
