Canon Powershot Digital Camera - Number 1 Bestseller

Amazon lists the Canon PowerShot SD800 as the current number one bestselling digital camera from among the hundred's if not thousands of digital cameras available through Amazon.


And no wonder, the Canon PowerShot SD800 is a nice little camera and there isn't much it doesn't have in the way of features. In fact, features like the ability to capture photos with enough detail to be turned into 15 X 20 inch prints, a wide angle zoom lense, 2.5 inch LCD display and much, much more.

It's the features like the 7.1 million-pixel CCD sensor, wide angle zoom lense, high speed image processing, a large 2.5 inch color LCD monitor, 3:2 guide, widescreen mode, Myy Category which allows the photographer to put their photos in seven categories, a direct printing button, and something magical called "face-priority" which makes the camera detect faces and focus on them for clear sharp pictures of your subjects features.

If underwater adventure is your photography game, you can also buy a WaterProof Case for the Canon SD800 that will let you and your camera take pictures to a depth of 130 feet....of course if you are down to 130 feet you might want to think about taking a picture of yourself...for your family....it will help with the grieving process....just kidding...

I think this camera will turn even the most neophyte photographer into a super star photog in no time at all. And the best part is the price, you can own this camera for a little over $300. Not bad at all for a digital camera with so many useful features.

The Canon PowerShot SD800 and a
WaterProof Case what more could an aspiring photographer want??

Digital Cameras

Whichever way you slice it up, digital cameras have taken over photography. True, there are still lots of the traditional film camera's in use, but the versatility of digital is hard to ignore.

Not only can you take hundreds of photos depending on the size of your image card, you can also manipulate those images much like a professional photographer in a darkroom would do, except you don't need a darkroom, just access to a computer and one of the several programs available for digital photography. These programs allow you to zoom in and out, crop pictures or change them, add text, adjust the colors and the contrast, and much more.In addition, you can save the pictures to your computer or a CD, email them to your friends...post nudies on your website...the list goes on and on....

Digital cameras have come a long way from my first Kodak DC200 Plus which is still a fine digital camera, but it doesn't have a zoom lense and the memory card only holds about a dozen pictures. I think it has gone off the market now, replaced by more versatile digital cameras like this Kodak EasyShare for about a third of what I paid for the old DC200 6 or 7 years ago. Otherwise, the DC200 still takes a pretty good picture and the Kodak picture software is among the easiest to use so I still use ours in some situations, although I have upgraded.

I now use an OLYMPUS Stylus Verve 4.0 megapixel camera that takes pretty good pictures, has a 2X optical zoom lense and can take video although I haven't used that particular feature yet other than to try it. It's a nice compact little camera that I can tuck into my pocket while on vacation or at the kid's school concert. I actually won this camera in a charity draw, and was pleasantly surprised by what I had won. (The grand prize was a $600,000.00 home, complete with a car, but I won a camera....)
