Budget
* What budget have you allocated for buying this camera? Please be as specific as possible.
Around $300 although I'm willing to pay more if I need to.
Size
* What size camera are you looking for? Or does size not matter at all to you?
Size is not that big a deal.
Features
How many megapixels will suffice for you?
6 mp or more.
* What optical zoom will you need?
Standard to Ultrazoom.
* How important is “image quality” to you? (Rate using a scale of 1-10)
Anywhere between 8 to 10.
Do you care for manual controls?
Not that much.
General Usage
* What will you generally use the camera for?
For general use. I've liked photography for a while and I want a camera that can take good pictures to see if I want to get more serious about photography.
* Will you be making big prints of your photos or not?
Possibly but not 100% sure.
Will you be shooting a lot of indoor photos or low light photos?
Yes.
Will you be shooting sports and/or action photos?
Sometimes.
Miscellaneous
Are there particular brands you like or hate?
No.
Are there particular models you already have in mind?
No.
(If applicable) Do you need any of the following special features? (Wide Angle, Image Stabilization, Weatherproof, Hotshoe, Rotating LCD)
It would be nice but they're not too necessary.
Like I said, I want something that takes good pictures so I can see if I want to move on to something better. Thanks. I hope I've been specific enough. I have a mac so if it's compatible with it, even better.
