Digital cameras are getting smaller every day. They are becoming more advanced with advanced features and many options. The picture quality is getting better as the megapixels rise. The prices are getting better. These mini cameras are handy to have and easy to carry with you.
The slim digital cameras come as small as 2 by 2 inches and can be carried on your keychain. These keychain cameras are pretty cool. They are there at times you do not usually have a camera with you and you can catch some great photo opportunities that would otherwise have been lost. The picture quality is not high end in most cases, but they are good enough to get the picture and send it in email to everyone that you know.
The keychain mini cameras are not fancy, most have no frills. These cameras are good for just what they are. Picture quality has gotten better on these, but sill they are not made for taking great photos. They range in price from 10.00 to 60.00 depending on the features and the maker.
The compact camera market has taken over the camera industry. These are popular because they offer so many features and most have good picture quality. Remember when you had to carry that big bulky camera to every event? The film and flash bulbs and extra batteries had to be packed too. This is not true today. You only have to use the big cameras if you want to.
Compact cameras offer features like red eye reduction, face recognition, and large LCD screens. These all help you to take better pictures. They are generally easy to use, and picture quality is great. Some offer night vision so even at night your pictures will look good.
Many of the cameras offer sepia tone or a black and white mode. This is a nice feature to have if you like to add interesting effects to your photos. There are zoom lenses and macro modes which allow for taking detailed pictures.
The batteries are usually rechargeable which saves money on replacing them. My favorite feature is the large LCD screens. They come in many sizes, but typically 2-2.5 inch screens are used. This is great for those that cannot see well through the view finder. These mini cameras come with most everything you could need or want. They are small enough to keep in a glove compartment or carry in a purse, and yes even a pocket. Buy the model that has the features that you need at a price you can afford.
