When buying a digital camera
June 4, 2009 – 2:11 pm | by adminWhen buying a digital camera, many consumers are set mainly in megapixels. It is not the most important benefit of the camera or the pictures which ensures better quality, but a fact that draws much attention and is easily understood, unlike other features that sound like Korean.
After all, a 5 MP picture with resolution (a capability that has long since surpassed digital cameras, and even reaching as many phones) evidently satisfies the quality required by the average user who rarely print their pictures and might make a large photo subiéndola to complete your Facebook profile …
In addition, photographs are a large number of negative side effects, including stress before memory cards, occupy more space on the hard drives of computers, or do not faithfully reproduce the original colors.
The competition among manufacturers of digital cameras to offer maximum capacity of megapixels has been slowly rising up to 12 bar the MP recently, which offer different models of Samsung, Canon and Pentax
At this point, it appears that some are starting to ignore this competition. This is true of the Japanese manufacturer Olympus, one of the most important market. Akira Watanabe, one of its directors, ZDNet declared that “12 MP are enough to cover most needs of most users.”
For this reason, withdraws from Olympus this struggle, resignation and try to sell more cameras offering more MP. In its place, the company will focus on other improvements to the cameras, as the dynamic range (the spectrum of colors that the sensor is capable of playing) or improving the quality of images taken in low light.
Other trends indicate that beyond the War of the MP are to improve the quality of the zoom lens built with greater sensitivity and ability to record and play high-definition video.
It is ultimately to give a more complete experience and not focus only on the size of the photos the same way that a car is not sold only by reaching the top speed, but for all its benefits.
