    mostly the pixels first.. the more pixels the better it is.
    then you see what kind of tech does it offer, such as auto-stabilizer/anti-shaki willing tng
    after that i'll see the price.

    if you so interested and have budget just go for dslr camera :)

    I don't know much about cameras but price is what I care most about. Any camera around $200-250 with 10+ MP is good for me.

    Megapixel's isn't as important as people think! Quality lens is the most improtant thing to consider, I would always go for Digital SLR's and purchase a really good lens if you can afford it!

    Lens quality is the most important thing here. Price, Power, LCD comes afterwards.

    First of all you should think for the Megapixel of the camera you want to buy.

    If you want to learn Photography, try to invest in a DSLR. Canon and Nikon are my brand bet but currently I have a Nikon D60. Both brands have wide range of lens choices which is a good factor on learning photography at an affordable price.

    Aside from that you can learn more on manual mode, aperture, shutter and program. A point and shoot camera also have those feature but not as satisfactory result as DSLR camera can produce.

    And I can assure you that the money you spent will be worth it.

    I would also say if you are that interested in a camera then look into getting a DSLR. The megapixel of a camera is not as important as people think and whether you have a 4 or 12 megapixel camera is of little use if all you are doing is viewing your pictures on a computer or printing out small size family photos. The engineering behind the cameras sensor and the ability to capture light is what is really important.

    High megapixels have become some what of a gimmick to lure people into buying cameras and other devices. If crappy camera is a 10 or 12 megapixel, it is still going to take crappy photos. I have an older DSLR that I can take great shots with, people are shocked when I tell them it is only 8 megapixels. Most newer point and shoots are higher now, but it doesn't mean that they are better.

    Cheers :)

    Zoom is more important.
    Whether you're shooting distant wildlife or close-up portraits, you can never have too much zoom. The majority of digital cameras have 3-, or 4x optical zoom, but you will never regret choosing a model with more telephoto power. Fortunately the extended zoom camera category is growing rapidly, and there is a great selection of models with 8-, 10-, or even 12x optical zoom. For the ultimate in zoom control and quality, look for an extended-zoom camera with image stabilization, which will ensure that shots taken at full telephoto will be tack-sharp, even without a tripod.
