Ever wonder why when you convert an image from RGB to CMYK, the colour appearance can be so dramatically different?

Whether you want to capture your child’s birthday party, a wedding or the sites from your summer travels, making a home video is one of the most popular ways of preserving the memories.

Nearly 54 percent of Americans own a camcorder, according to the Consumer Electronics Association. As digital video cameras have become increasingly popular and much more affordable - average prices have decreased about a third in the last several years - many people are taking the magic of home videos one step further by doing their own editing and adding special effects and music.

Today’s world of digital cameras - a place of megapixels, optical and digital zooms and exposure controls - can leave the everyday snapshooter feeling a bit dazed and confused.

If you already own a digital camera and are looking to upgrade or perhaps buy one for the first time, here are five reasons to take the plunge:

1. Your addiction to caffeine has escalated and your pictures are blurry. Counter shaky hands by selecting a digital camera with optical image stabilization to fight blur. Nowadays you can find affordable compact cameras with such advanced technology. And finding a camera with double anti-blur protection reduces the chances of blurry or grainy pictures even further, so look for cameras with high ISO settings as well. Cameras such as Sony’s compact Cyber-shot T-series or high-zoom H-series models are good options.
