What is a digital camera?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Imaging Resource Discussion : One Thread

I was thinking about purchasing a scanner, but a friend suggested I get a digital camera instead. My objective is to be able to paste photos on my web site, as well as to e-mail photos. Would you please send me any information to help me out?

Thank you, A. Christine Lopez

A low price digital camera will work quite well, however a scanner will also. The scanner is probably less complicated to get set up and get working, but the digital will let you take pic and get them online quickly. You don't have to wait for develpment.

Your question probably was not answered because you did not do any research on your own. Read thru the many questions and you could find a lot of info on both digital cameras and scanners. Then ask more detail questions should they arise.
