Camera's

There are different type of camera's including camera phones, compact camera's and DSLR's. A camera phone cost's from £20 to £600 and is used by mainly friends taking quick snaps of each other or someone needing to take a quick picture at an unexpected moment. These are generally quick and easy to use and carry around however the quality is generally not very good due to it using a digital lens zoom. This is poor quality because this is where the camera uses software to zoom instead of optical zoom where the camera uses the glass to zoom like binoculars. The compact camera cost's from £50 to £300. They are quick and easy to use and carry around and are lot better quality than camera phones. Allthough they are better quality than camera phones they are not as good as DSLR's. They use optical and digital zoom and typically are 10 megapixels plus. The DSLR is the best cameras you can get, they range from £300 to £5000. Then a further price of around £5000 is needed to buy a lense which is sold seperatly from the camera. These are generally used by proffesional photographers who need to get picture's with details in quick times e.g. the press. These are very high quality however they are very expensive and are a lot bigger than other camera's, and not very easy to carry around. They use optical zoom and are generally 20 megapixels plus and are very high quality. These are the best camera's.
