The camera that I would buy is for taking family pictures, important events and pictures to put in the internet. It would also have to have alot of memory that can be stored and enough to last for a while. I would also like it to have a clear image when i take a picture even when it's far away and that when i zoom in you can still see it's important details.
2.What resolution should I look for?
I should look for a camera with a high resolution setting because if i want to print an image for example 900x900 pixels the picture would come out clearer and so that it doesnt lack detail.
3.What type of memory is available?
There are many types of memory cards and some of them are:
SD memory card
SD memory card is an ultra small flash memory card is designed to store high capacity in a small sized stick. They are normally used for small portable devices such as digital cameras, handheld computers, audio players and mobile phones. SD Memory Cards are now available for up to 2GB. An SD card normally measures 24mm x 32mm x 2.1mm and weighs approximately 2grams.
MMC
MMC is designed to store data and to enable the transfer of data between devices equipped with MultiMediaCard (MMC) slots. MMC is used as a storage media for a portable device. For example, a digital camera would use an it for storing image files. it has a capacity size of 128MB, 256MB and 512MB.
MICRO SD
It is the smallest memory card available, at the size of 15 mm × 11 mm × 1 mm (about the size of a fingernail) an it is about a quarter the size of an SD card. They are now available in a capacity of 1GB and weighs about 0.04 lbs or 1.41g.

A snapshooter would suit me because it can take photos that I can e-mail to friends and family, post on the Web, or print in sizes smaller than 8x10 inches. It is also small enough to take anywhere and it also has a video recording with sounds.
UNDECIDED

AU$400 to AU$700

This is my second choice because it has a big enough memory for me to take alot of pictures, it has a tv connection can edit photos, recording video clip with sound,and has a wide range of controls i can choose from eg. automatic, manual etc.
5.Explain how a card reader would be useful for you to have with the camera.
A card reader can be connected or built in. It can be useful for a camera because it alows images/ photos to be transpered from devices such as a digital camera, video recorders and mp3 players. Using a card reader can also reduce wear and tear on the hinges and the terminals within the cameras memory card compartment and instead of using camera cables u can use a card reader and it would not drain the batteries in the camera.
