Buying a Digital Camera

I often have people ask me, "Is this a good camera?" Or "I want to get a camera, but I'm not sure what to look for." Both of those are really tough to answer! It's tough because the answer is different for everyone. It really depends on what you want to spend, how your going to use the camera and what is important to you. The best thing that I can do is give you some advise on what to look for when your out shopping. So in this lesson, we'll discuss of of these things.
Once your done with the lesson, choose a camera that's good for you. Use your knowledge of what to look for to research and find a camera that would do what you want it to do. Start by determining what that is and what price range you would be will to purchase from. The use sites to gather info and place it on this sheet.

The video below explains for to get started and do the camera research project.
