Don't buy the very first camera that you admire. Pay attention to useful advice, but don't be influenced by sales terminology.
The choice of Camera: Don't be put off by the seemingly endless selection of cameras when you enter a photographic store. It might seem difficult to make a choice initially, but do not worry. There are a lot of brands, but just a few different types of camera. When you know the type of camera you prefer (110, disc, 35mm, etc.) it's then a case of deciding on a precise make or model. These days' manufacturers compete with each other and it is better to buy Digital Camera, than obsolete technology - Film Camera.
The Camera you need: Choose usually the one you feel at ease with. Many buyers are tempted into buying a camera that they simply don't need. The complete newcomer to photography could possibly be totally baffled by an intricate digital or DSLR camera - and then become discouraged from taking pictures, because of its complexity. Remember, there is a camera available on the market for every level of photography, from basic "point and shoot" to one tackling high quality projects.
Cost and Quality: Typically, cameras are very good value for money. In most cases you get what you pay for, but even at the lower end price scale, you can discover a camera which will create acceptable results. Definitely, the more you spend the better of the camera. But don't mistake this with attaining better quality results - which depends a great deal more on how a photographer uses the camera. Your choice really depends on your interest in photography. If you want to use photography just as a hobby, you don't need an expensive Digital Single Lens Camera to start with. But try to get more mega pixels anyway. Say 5-6 MP. On other hand, if you plan to generate some income from your hobby and get published, I would recommend at least 10-12MP. Whatever camera you choose, try to buy the best quality you can afford.
It will last you longer and you will find that you have made a right choice.
