help with digital camera?? what is a tele,wide and close up conversion lens?

i have those options on my digital camera? which one for what? thanks:)

You don't say what type camera you have, but it is most likely the Canon A590IS. Think this is a great camera and a best buy. It has a viewfinder, optical image stabilizer, auto focus, and uses NiMH rechargeable batteries.

For expanded wide angle,closeup/macro, or telephoto capabilities, the A590 IS is compatible with Canon's accessory lens adapters: A small button next to the lens bezel is actually a latch; press it and you can remove the bezel ring, exposing a bayonet mount for accessory lenses. Canon offers the WC-DC52 0.7x wide-angle lens, the TC-DC52A telephoto lens, the 250D 52mm closeup lens separately, along with the LA-DC52G adapter to mount them on the camera. (Note that the wide, tele, and macro lenses all need the LA-DC52G adapter to mount them to the camera. The lenses won't work by themselves.)

There is no one particular place to get great buys, but you may see something above that really helps you find the best buy. Click on the second link in the information above for an example then search for your camera of choice at the upper left. Camera prices at this link change often.

In new cameras, look for a viewfinder (LCD invisible in bright sun), optical (not CCD) image stabilizer, and check battery prices. High mega pixel settings take longer to process and may not be needed unless required for very large pictures. Maximum print size for a 3 mega pixel setting is 8 x 10 inches.

CAUTION Do not overcharge! Batteries can be damaged. Use an automatic two or more hour Energizer Compact smart charger with temperature monitor, trickle charge technology, and safety timer ($9.76) at Walmart. Use pre-charged 2000mAh Duracell ($12.97) or RayOVac ($5.97) batteries (hold charge one year) and a full cycle charge. To preserve battery charge, use the viewfinder.

CAUTION To prevent memory card corruption, keep batteries charged and don't delete. Wait for lights to stop flashing then turn camera off before removing memory. For card readers, double click Safely Remove Hardware. Select then click Stop and OK.

One of the main apparatus the photographer uses for perfect shots is his camera digital lenses. Different lenses are used for different situations. Whether you are closing in on a tight shot or telescoping a wide landscape, your lens is crucial.

The further away your subject, the shaker the focus gets. If you are shooting up close, you can zoom in and focus fairly easily, but for those long distance shots you must have a tele lens and a steady hand. The high magnification of zoom lenses accentuates the effects of camera shake.

Camera shake is inevitably the greatest cause for unfocused, long distance shots. When shooting great distances, you must be able to steady the camera; even the depressing of the shutter button will smear your image. Here are a few ideas that may help.

Ideally, use a tripod. Setting your camera on a tripod gives it the stability it needs to focus on your subject and stay focused, and it will allow you to use slower shutter speeds. But your tripod must be on steady ground. If you're on shaky ground, tripods will transmit this motion.

Tripod-mounting collars attach the lens at the proper fulcrum to the tripod rather than the camera, when you use physically long lenses. You can also use a secondary support for the camera like Bogen's Long Lens Support. This telescoping brace attaches to most tripod legs with a universal clamp at one end and a swivel ball head for the camera at the other.

If don't have a tripod, try using something steady like a car or fencepost or your body. Rolling up a jacket or other item that you can brace your elbows on, place your arms closely towards your body, lens and camera balanced by the left had and arm, aim the camera slightly above the subject, take a deep breath, let the view drop to the proper composition while exhaling, and gently depress the shutter button.

Using this technique takes practice and a high resolution film and shutter speed. ISO 400 or higher should be used. This will allow you to use the higher shutter speed and minimize the effects of shake.

If you have better support-like a steady object-place your camera on top of it while shooting your image. This gives you the ability to use slower shutter speeds. The minimum shutter speed rule of thumb for hand-holding a long tele or zoom lens is this: Slowest safe shutter speed = 1 over the lens focal length.

For the serious on the go photographer, try using a monopod. Monopods are easy to carry and quick to set up. Your shutter speeds will have to be set on a higher speed, but it will enable you to get those long distance shots without much danger of image softening or camera shake, which would occur if you just were hand holding.

Practice in holding and focusing for long distance is essential. Your camera lens will definitely take your photography to a different level, but practice will keep that shaking hand from distorting your perfect image.
