Camera type #4: Compact Cameras

The final category of Cameras for today are Compact Cameras.

These are probably the most commonly seen and used cameras on the market and have been developed and made to fit in your pocket and take decent pictures quickly and on demand. They are there to do point and shoot and tend to be good at that, but there are some differences especially between the advanced compact cameras, which are really just slightly more expensive but much better quality compacts.

So now it depends what you want your camera to do. Does it need to just turn on quickly and take a picture, or do you want to be able to set your shutter speed or your ISO manually? There is also the choice of having wifi, or even 3G, or if you use your camera mainly to take pictures to send to your work, or friends or facebook, then you might wnat to go with a SMART camera. SMART is a system developed by Samsung, and means you can connect to your email address, your facebook or other social media profile from your camera, and upload your pictures straight from there, with no need for conneting to your computer first. You can also use your phone as a remote control or stream straight to a SMART TV or backup directly to your computer or Cloud.

So here there isn't really any recommendation I could make in general, because it always depends on what you want to use your camera for.
