8. Do work out how you will get pictures printed or stored
You will not be able to store all the pictures you ever want to take on the memory card so it is important to think about how you will get the pictures printed or downloaded to a computer for storage. You can easily start taking a lot of pictures so make sure you have enough storage and a way of backing the pictures up.

9. Do think about SLRs
SLRs look like the old large film cameras but they have recently taken off for taking digital pictures. Manufactures such as Nikon and Canon have started producing affordable digital SLR cameras that take far superior pictures to digital compacts. With interchangeable lenses and the ability to take RAW pictures (uncompressed) you will be able to gain the flexibility of any professional photographer.

10. Do shop around before buying
Once you have decided what type of camera you want shop around sometimes it’s worth looking at a slightly older model of camera that will give you all the functionality and quality you will need.

Good luck buying.
