Digital Camera Buying Guide
Once upon a time, cameras competed with other cameras. Now, with the rise of smartphones as everyday photography devices, cameras have had to evolve quickly to compete with those mobile devices. Compared to just a few years ago, there are many more types of cameras to choose from; manufacturers are building specialized cameras for different types of shooters, a growing number of which have Wi-Fi sharing capabilities and phone-like features.
There are a lot of different styles of cameras to choose from these days: ruggedized point-and-shoots, high-zoom pocket cameras, premium compact cameras, mirrorless interchangeable-lens models, and full-fledged DSLRs. Depending on your budget, your size requirements, and your shooting style, any one of those cameras may be the best fit.
