The Digital Camera Revolution

The potential of digital cameras has crossed media. Some Cell phones can capture digital image, share the pictures with other cells or download the image to computers and the world wide web. They are easy to use and it does not cost any money taking pictures. One can take as many pictures desired and edit the selection once limited by space. 

Finding a digital camera with less than 3 Megapixel is hard to find now days. Every year the standards go up and the consumer buys cameras with more megapixel. With a higher megapixel camera the quality improves and so with every year the standard of images taken improves. This provides better quality of printing and enlarging images. With the rise of megapixel standards the printers are getting better by the day. It is easier to produce more professional results than ever before now days. Mind you real professionals use cameras that are around ten megapixel or more.

In the last few years the view finder has become less popular in the consumer targeted camera. Nikon, one of the more known camera manufacture company, has taken this feature out all together from its consumer line. These cameras have a bigger LCD screen which is a popular requirement in the market. The professional market, however, remains view finder oriented. 

The optical zoom has also been introduced widely in the consumer and professional markets. Unlike the digital zoom, it allows enlargement of an image with less of a quality compromise.

With all the upgrades this field has seen in the last decade, it is amassing to see that the prices have been reduced. The amounts of innovations and improvements grows fast.
