We've already covered the question of whether or not the number of mega pixels is the most important feature to look for in a digital camera.

However, the topic merits a second look, along with certain other digital camera features that seem impressive but in reality may be nothing more than advertising fluff.

Digital cameras, as well as any other product a consumer may be shopping for, should always be selected on the basis of what you need in a particular product.

Advertising firms emphasize features and performance when trying to sell digital cameras but it is up to the consumer to decide which of these "features" they really need.

Many of today's crop of digital cameras have loads of features, many of which are great, such as anti-shake, but do you really need or want "face recognition?"

Be careful not to get derailed by huge numbers, and don't fall for a camera that's feature rich and performance poor, because you'll be disappointed.

Check out this article about what is and what isn't important when selecting a digital camera.

By the way the camera pictured above is a 160 million mega pixel digital camera; get out your credit card!

Take a camera with you whenever possible, and look around, you'll find a picture somewhere.
