Finding the Perfect Camera for Your Holiday

If you are planning a holiday you will want to remember to take a camera that you can take high quality pictures to show off to all your friends or even just reminisce about your holiday after you come back home.
There is quite a large variety of cameras out there on the market and a broad price range to choose from.
Your first thing you need to decide is if you want a small compact camera which can limit the quality of the pictures you take compared to the cameras with a lens pack to shoot those professional looking photos.
If you decide to go with the small compact digital camera, these are ideal for casual photo takers who don't have to worry about carrying around a camera bag with the extra lenses.
Most people don't put too much thought in to taking photos but if you go on holiday and want to take some photos on your holiday getting an ultra compact digital camera is probably your best choice.
On the other hand if you are going somewhere exotic and want to take a more professional approach to your photo taking you could go with the higher price ranger cameras with the extra lenses to choose from.
Some of these cameras you will want to consider the technology that it uses, you will want to get the newest technology such as the DIGIC 4 image processor system which you will find in Canon cameras.
Another thing you will want to consider when purchasing a travel camera is one with a quick shutter, although most cameras have eliminated shutter lag you will want to get a camera with a very low shutter lag for high speed focus.
Another feature most people will look at is the megapixels that the cameras offer you will find that cameras with higher megapixels allows you to print the pictures larger and if you reduce the size it will look much more clear and crisp.
Another important aspect of choosing a camera for travel use is finding one with a long battery life, if you go out on a trip for the day you do not want your battery to die during an exciting trip and have to wait until you get back to your room.
Generally you will want to find a camera that allows for around 250 shots per a full battery charge.
Although some cameras you could purchase an additional battery for an extensive day of photo shooting.
