hi i was wondering why there is big difference in price between both cameras that both for example 14 mega pixel, the point and shoot is very lower than DSLR PRo camera while both are the same mega pixel, does the DSLR 14 MP shoot clearer pictures than the point and shoot that also has 14 MP ?


Answer
When it comes to cameras, size matters - sensor size, that is.

14 megapixels means that the digital sensor on each camera is divided into 14 million sectors. It's the size of the sensor that makes the difference.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Image_sensor_sizes_in_current_digital_cameras_(updated_as_of_Sep._21st_2011).png

For example. you could buy a very nice Honda Accord with a 6 cylinder engine that gives you 278 hp. Or, you could get a Porsche 911 Turbo with a 6 cylinder engine, as well. Guess which one has more oomph? The Porsche will rock you back into your driver's seat with 530 hp.

As you can see, the number of cylinders the engine is divided into is not the sole factor in the performance of the car. With cameras, the sensor size, the optics in the lenses (especially when you can use interchangeable lenses for different situations), the wider range light metering, and the full manual controls that let an experienced photographer maximize their skills win over megapixels.

Frankly, any well-made older 6mp dslr from Nikon, Pentax, or Canon will shoot rings about most 14mp compacts.

id love to know when is the best time to purchase a DSLR. im looking into investing in a great camera with outstanding picture quality and technology. Where can all the good deals be found? what time of year is perfect for this sort of purchase?


Answer
The best time would be when the camera maker of your choice announces newer models. Then, if you don't have to have the "latest & greatest", you can get great mark-down deals on the previous models. It's like buying cars. When the 2012 models are arriving, it's a great time to buy a new 2011.
