The camera world is an ever-changing theme in this digital world in which we exist, now there are cameras in the hands of everyone that carries a cell phone.

Some of the new smart phones have two cameras for face-to-face phone calls. Today’s camera is no longer just a still camera; most have video capability some even have audio capabilities. Now every image is automatically digitally time stamped and an audio tag can give the image’s details.

An Android Altek Leo, which is due to be released in Europe in 2011 has a 14-megapixel camera in a smartphone, this is superior in megapixel technology to many entry level DSLRs on the market.

As an example, a Nikon D3000, which is their entry-level digital camera, has a 10.2 megapixel, that’s costs around $550.00. The top of the line Nikon D3X now offers a whopping 24.5-megapixel FX-format D-SLR, priced at $8000.00 and purportedly offers amazing digital quality.

Canon’s offering in the DSLR market place also runs the gamut from high end to low end. The top dog of the Canon line is the 21.1 megapixel EOS -1Ds priced at $7000

The line continues down to their entry level EOS Rebel XS with a 10.1-megapixel unit priced at $550.00. These megapixel ratings are astounding considering the original Nikon digital camera was introduced in the late 1980’s at a of cost $12,000 and had a dinky 1.3 megapixel capability.

The history of the camera is repeating itself; When George Eastman introduced his inexpensive $1.00 camera to the world it seemed as though the entire world was in everyone’s viewfinder, now the world is everyone’s cell camera!
