Does price matter when it comes to choosing a good digital camera?
ive seen digital cameras for $ 99 and $999. i dont know much about technical specifications but the cheap ones and the expensive ones are both 12 megapixels, 5 x zoom, etc. so why is there such a big difference in price? should i just get the $ 99 one? im not good with electronics (i either lose them or break them).
p.s are these good cameras?
samsung ES15B
sony cybershot DSCS930
olympus FE-26
What varies widely in these cameras is the build quality, and the image processor. A $99 camera will be flimsy, the lens zoom will be clunky, and it will take forever for the processor to take the picture and save it. A $999 camera is beyond your league.
Personally, I find that $200-$300 spent on a good brand (Nikon, Canon, Sony, Olympus, Pentax, Panasonic) seems to be the sweet spot for price and performance in point-and-shoot cameras.
