Redesigned for 2005, the Imaging-Resource(TM) Digital Camera Buyers Guide includes best buy picks in seven price categories from the under $200 set to the $1,000 range, satisfying virtually any consumer's budget. The Internet's preeminent (and one of the original) informational sites for digital camera buyers -- from newcomers to photo-pros -- Imaging-Resource is not a sales site and is completely brand neutral as seven years of respected camera reviews clearly reveal.

"Digital cameras are expected to be top sellers once again this holiday season, but as the selection grows so does consumer confusion over what features are important, how much to spend, and how not to make a bad choice or the wrong decision," explains Imaging-Resource.com Publisher and founder Dave Etchells. "All of the cameras in our guide were selected after extensive review and trial. Whether they are in the under $200 category or higher- priced, they are all good decisions."

Etchells explains that many consumers, pressed for time, are stampeded or intimidated into buying something with more features than they want, need or will ever learn to use. "Retailers call it 'upselling' but the largest segment of digital camera buyers are people who simply want what they have always wanted from a camera: pictures. Imaging-Resource.com is not selling consumers anything. Our only obligation is to make their life easier by providing an independent, honest and knowledgeable voice.

"And," adds Etchells, "in case you're thinking that a digital camera bargain priced under $200 must be either old technology or off-brand junk, the Imaging-Resource picks in that category are all current models from Canon, Sony, Nikon and Kodak.

"Simply put, the first rule of thumb for buying a digital camera is not how much the camera will do, but how much you will do with the camera. The most expensive may not be your best choice."
