Whilst this may not be interesting to everyone I feel its rather interesting, there are absolutely loads of choices available to people for different gadgets, the main example I am going to use is for cameras, with my birthday money from last Sunday I purchased a digital camera, I researched this for quite a while to weigh up my options and I found plenty!, its made complicated by the shear number of brands available, the quality of the sensors – the number of mega pixels they have, their ISO and shutter speed options etc. What I’m trying to get to is that I looked at quite a few cameras and found it hard to decide, I will admit that I was not only judging them by their specs and how good they were but also by their appearance which for me is something I shouldn’t do as its not the right way to judge something technical in my opinion but I did and I ended up getting the Kodak v1003 in Black. It has a 10mp sensor, a 3x optical zoom, ISO speeds ranging from ISO 80 to ISO 1600, Long time exposure mode up to 8 seconds, Anti blur mode, and Kodak’s easy share stuff. I was mainly weighed over by the good number of mega pixels for the price, the looks and also the number of scene modes, which I wanted so I could experiment.
The camera looks like this and I’m very happy with it so far, I will at some point take some pictures worthy of showing off perhaps:
But I have it in black and it looks much better - well I think so anywho.

Dont be seduced by Pixel count it means nothing if the sensor produces poor images.Instead look for colour rendition shadow and highlight detail. Many sensors perform very poorly at high ISO settings producing “noise” in the shadow areas and a gritty look in large areas of colour like sky.
Also look to capture RAW files that can easily be edited afterwards
