Before deciding to choose which Lumix FZ45 digital camera to buy, it is important to look at a series of factors. The most important factor to consider is the use of the camera. Whether it is intended for professional or domestic normal use. When this is determined then it will be possible to decide on the price.

When making such an important purchase, the buyer must keep abreast of the terminology used to define the features of the camera in order to make a sound decision. One of the most important features to be aware of, as a buyer is the camera resolution. A buyer essentially should go for the highest megapixel value they can afford on their camera. The minute, colored dots that make up an image are called pixels, and their density per inch in a photo determines the sharpness and size of the image.

Digital cameras often come with a choice of either digital or optical zoom. This defines the way in which the camera enlarges objects faraway. A general rule of thumb is to consider optical zoom more important as magnification using the lens system in a camera often produces a higher quality image than digital zoom, which simply uses the software to calculate the enlargement of an image. The images thus produced by manipulation through software, though enlarged, are often hazy and unclear.

Some camera models offer both optical and digital zoom options. In combination, the two types of zoom offer increased zoom sensitivity and better picture quality. The zoom number describes how many times the image magnification varies between cameras. The focal length of a camera is the difference between the two zoom types. Digital cameras can have either a fixed focal point or variable focal points, enabling the latter to zoom in or out.

Macro lenses allow cameras with this feature to reproduce exceptionally high quality images as they provide the capability for extremely detailed close-ups of the subject, producing a very professional looking photo. This is a much sought-after feature especially with nature photographers.

The ISO is what determines the sensitivity of the camera to light. The higher it is the more sensitive to light the camera will be. This results in achieving a print image that is not fuzzy.

There is also the shutter speed and aperture. A high shutter speed enables the camera to take clear action shots, while a slower shutter speed enables capturing of fast moving objects. The aperture, on the other hand, controls areas of focus on an image. The Lumix FZ45 camera is well built and long-lasting camera available at reasonable prices.
