Color

In current listings, Black is the most common option (57% of listings that state this specification), followed by Pink (16%) and Silver (11%). Colour is mostly a matter of taste, although it can affect the price of used and refurbished items, so it rarely needs to drive your decision.

Maximum Resolution

In current listings, 16.0 MP is the most common option (15% of listings that state this specification), followed by 16.1 MP (15%) and 24.2 MP (15%). Resolution describes how sharp the picture is. Higher resolutions look better on larger screens and when you sit close, but they also need matching content and, for gaming, more powerful hardware.

Battery Type

In current listings, Lithium-Ion is the most common option (77% of listings that state this specification), followed by AA (4%) and Lithium (4%). Battery capacity gives a rough idea of endurance, but real-world battery life also depends on the screen, processor and software, so compare it with independent test results when you can.

Connectivity

In current listings, USB is the most common option (56% of listings that state this specification), followed by USB-C (10%) and Micro-HDMI, USB-C (6%). Compare this specification across the products you are considering, and check that the exact value you need appears in the product's listed details.

What Digital Cameras cost

Most Digital Cameras listings, the middle 90 percent, are priced between US$49.99 and US$1,780, and the typical (median) price is around US$275. These figures are a rough guide in US dollars; product cards on this site show prices in your own currency. Prices change often, so compare the total cost including shipping and check when each offer was last updated.

New, used or refurbished?

Current offers in this category are split as follows:

• Used: 64% of offers
• New: 18% of offers
• Certified refurbished: 12% of offers
• Open box: 6% of offers

New items usually cost more but come with the seller's or manufacturer's full warranty where one applies. Used and refurbished items can offer real savings, but condition varies, so read the seller's description, look at the photos and check the return policy before you buy.

• Set a budget first, then decide which two or three specifications you cannot compromise on.
• Compare the total price including shipping, not just the headline price.
• Check the condition, the seller's rating and the return policy, especially for used items.
• Open a few product pages and compare the offers from different sellers side by side.
• Confirm that the exact model and specification you want appear in the listing details before you buy.
