highest megapixel small camera image
adam29379
Im looking for a good digital camera I suppose...I need a camera that takes good pictures with a pretty high megapixel but doesn't cost too much. I know you can get a camera that costs $3000 but I dont have that kind of money. The camera will be for taking pictures of mostly dirt track racing and foot ball games. Please list specific cameras! I know cannons are good and Kodak.
Answer
The two genres that you list: racing and football are similar in this way: (1) there is fast movement and (2) you, the photographer, can't get as close to it as you would like. This means that the best camera for this would be one with little or no shutter lag, a fast autofocus, a reasonable burst rate, and a fast telephoto lens. The lens could cost as much as the camera body. Your budget, however, will not cover the cost of a suitable mid-tier dSLR and a good telephoto lens. So you may have to settle for a super-zoom compact camera. It will be more difficult to get good images, but you might be surprised at the quality that you do get. There are too many to list here. So go to http://dpreview.com for the reviews and recommendations.
Do not focus on megapixels, as any camera today will give you good images. In fact too many megapixels on a small sensor will be the exact opposite of what you need.
Lastly, the single most important factor for getting professional images is the ability of the photographer. An expensive camera is not a guarantee that you will get professional results if you don't know what you're doing.

What is the best camera out there with the most affordable price?

small camera's too.
Answer
While most of the cameras out there are really good, I would choose Canon over Nikon because it seems like more camera for the money. Some would say Canon withholds their best technology for high end cameras and Nikon implements their best at all levels. Before you decide, read all the text and links in the information below because it will help you know what to look for in a camera.
There is no one particular place to get great buys, but you may see something below that really helps you find the best buy. Click on the first link in the information below for an example then search for your camera of choice at the upper left. Camera prices at this link change often.
Just saw this camera at Best Buy and think it is a great camera and a best buy. It has an optical viewfinder, image stabilizer, auto focus, and uses NiMH rechargeable batteries. Read as much of the following as you can for other information and help with choosing a camera.

There are so many cameras out there it is difficult to say which is best, but digital is definitely the way to go. The second source link will be very helpful as it list most of the cameras out there with prices. The following information should help you know what to look for in a camera.
What gives a camera its picture quality?
The short answer is that it is mostly the skill of the photographer that produces high quality pictures. The lens and camera are very important, but the ability to set the scene, adjust the cameras settings, and hold the camera very still or use a tripod with auto or remote shutter actuation when required is what gets the great pictures.
In new cameras, look for optical viewfinders (LCD invisible in bright sun) and check battery prices. High mega pixel settings take longer to process and may not be needed unless required for very large pictures or enlarging small parts of big pictures. Maximum print size for a 3 mega pixel setting is 8 x 10 inches.

The information about my camera is just to show that you don't need the biggest and best. Just know how to use the one you have.
My camera has 5.2 mega pixel, but I use 3 most of the time because it gives great results, is faster, and takes less memory. Also, it only has a 3 x optical zoom and 7 x digital zoom. I never use the digital zoom because making pictures larger works better on the computer. This is an old camera, but everyone is impressed with the quality pictures it takes ... like magic.
Check with the Geeks in several stores and compare prices. Ask what cameras they own, but don't believe everything you hear. Once you select a camera read all about it in the owner's manual. Just learned that my camera has red-eye prevention and correction. It also has adaptive lighting. You may be able to view owners manuals at this link, but will need to Login. http://www.retrevo.com/s/digital+camera ...
