It really depends largely on what you personally are looking for in a digital camera but these are comments of different personal wants and the features that they found important.

The Snapshooter

I want to take photos that I can e-mail to friends and family, post on the Web, or print in sizes smaller than 8×10 inches. I’d like a digital camera that is easy enough for the whole family to use and small enough to take anywhere. I’ll be printing on an inexpensive, all-purpose inkjet printer or getting photo prints from the local drugstore, though I’ll consider buying a photo printer if I like the pictures enough. If this is your purpsose these are The specs that matter. Resolution It doesn’t matter. Most cameras on the market today have sufficient resolution for your needs. Price $150 to $300, lens type Zoom (range encompassing at least 38mm to 114mm, 35mm equivalent) Storage media Internal memory, CompactFlash, Memory Stick, xD-Picture Card, or Secure Digital/MultiMediaCard Photo file format JPEG Interfaces USB, NTSC/PAL television connection, exposure controls automatic, programmed scene modes, exposure compensation (for tweaking the automatic exposure), focus controls automatic, flash modes automatic, fill, red-eye reduction, software Photo stitching, photo album, slide show, multimedia VGA (640×480), 30fps video-clip recording with sound, other cool features to look for Direct-to-printer (PictBridge) output compatibility, in-camera red-eye removal, automatic exposure fix, optical or mechanical image stabilization, face detection.

The Trendsetter

I like to buy the newest, shiniest toys before anyone else does. I want to impress my friends and business associates with the latest technologies and coolest features, but not if it makes the product too complicated to use. Although I do want the best deal available the cost of the digital camera is not my number one concern. For the trendsetter the specs that matter are resolution 8 megapixels or greater, price Less than $1,000 lens type Zoom (range encompassing at least 36mm to 108mm, 35mm equivalent), storage media Internal memory, CompactFlash, Memory Stick, xD-Picture Card, or SD/HC, photo file format JPEG, interfaces USB, HDMI, or component HDTV television connection, exposure controls automatic, programmed scene modes, exposure compensation (for tweaking the automatic exposure), focus controls automatic, flash modes automatic, fill, red-eye reduction Software Photo-stitching, photo album, slide show, multimedia 720p (1,280×720) video-clip recording with sound and functioning zoom during video, other cool features to look for Ultracompact design, Webcam capabilities, voice recording, Wi-Fi support, 3-inch LCD, simultaneous video and photo capture, 12X or greater optical zoom, optical or mechanical image stabilization, face detection.

The Business user

I need to be able to shoot onsite or in the office, photograph products and people for ads and publicity in print and on the Web, and get professional-looking results without hiring a pro. I need to get prints in a variety of ways, including from a color laser printer or quick-print shop. I have to share the camera with my coworkers. The specs that matter for the business user are resolution 7 megapixels or greater, price $400 to $700, lens type Zoom (range encompassing at least 36mm to 130mm, 35mm equivalent), storage media CompactFlash, Memory Stick, xD-Picture Card, or SD/HC, photo file format JPEG or TIFF, interfaces USB, NTSC/PAL television connection, exposure controls automatic, aperture- and shutter-priority, manual, choice of metering modes, bracketing, focus controls automatic, manual flash modes automatic, fill, red-eye reduction, external flash compatibility, software photo editor; collaborative image sharing, multimedia voice recording, built-in speaker for audio playback, other cool features to look for Support for digital security, Wi-Fi, text-capture mode, world clock.
