You were RIGHT THERE in front of someone who would have been glad to explain it to you, but you didn't. Why are you asking us instead of the shopkeeper?
Answer by Joe
Don't expect to get a lot out of it. Unless it's really old and collectible (which is doubtful), it has very little value.
Search through eBay for cameras that are a similar age and model number to get an idea of what it's worth and how they are selling. Then use one of those ads as a model for your own ad.
eBay is usually the best because a wider audience stands the best chance of bidding the price up as much as possible. But don't get your hopes up too high.
And if it's not worth the trouble of listing, you can always donate it to your local Salvation Army or Goodwill store. They'll appreciate it. And the tax write-off may be worth more than what you could get by selling it.
Good luck.

Here's a basic camera that can take decent videos and has a built in microphone. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0007KQWEQ?&tag=shopwiki-us-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325
With that camera, you can add a nice microphone to get the good sounds. http://www.shopwiki.com/detail/d=Nikon_Coolpix_7900_Microphone/
Answer by Tony
Either an object that is too close to the lens, (this may need to be very close if it is a small camera).
An area with little contrast or an area that is largely the same color.
Or a dark area, those are the main 3 things that would cause difficulty focusing.

Answer by Rafal Chalgasiewicz
Every camera takes good pictures if a person behind it knows how to use it.
You can honestly start with a camera in your phone.
There is a published album "The Best Camera is the One That's with You: iPhone Photography by Chase Jarvis", all photos were taken exclusively with an iphone which technically speaking has not very advanced camera.
I was 14 I would start with shooting film. It's really eyes opener and learns respecting photography as the form of art..

If it's a film camera, try selling it as a collectible on E-bay. If it's electronic, do a Google search for "electronics recycling" and your zip code.
Answer by KNDChicago
Unfortunately the digital camera captures us the way others see us.
The reason you looked different in photos from a disposable camera is the lens. Fixed focus set to infinity and made of plastic. If you enlarge those photos youll notice nothing is really in focus. This produces a "soft" image which some would find more pleasing.
Your digital camera has adjustable focus and a glass lens. Even cheap digital camera have much better optics than a disposable camera. It captures all our flaws much better than the disposables.
Some people complained when HD TV first came out. The resolution was so good and captured so much detail zits and imperfections on actors faces became prominent. With analog TV and CRT displays those flaws went unnoticed.
Welcome to the digital age.

Camera reports batteries low, but is it low charge or bad electrical contacts? Overcharging can ruin good batteries! The secret to making digital cameras work better is having good electrical contacts between batteries and camera.
Digital cameras require lots of power. Bad electrical contacts can cause lots of problems so battery and camera contacts must be cleaned properly. Batteries may be fully charged, but will be viewed as low if contacts are not really good. The LCD screen is a low steady load, but when lens extension, optical zoom, focus, and flash charging are added in the capture mode; the load is very heavy. Bad contacts make cameras do strange things like making bad pictures or shutting off with the lens out.
CAUTION Do not overcharge! Batteries can be severely damaged. Use an automatic two or more hour Energizer Compact smart charger with safety timer, temperature monitor, and trickle charge technology ($ 9.76) at Walmart. For longer life, use Duracell 2000mAh batteries and a full cycle charge monthly. Ray O Vac 2100mAh batteries are half the price and may do just as well, but have not tried them. To preserve battery charge, use the view finder and not the LCD screen when possible.
Never touch battery ends or camera electrical contacts. Oil from fingers will contaminate contacts. Use batteries in matched pairs of same brand and rating. Do not mix old and new batteries. New will only do as well as old.
NiMH batteries should be recharged before using in digital cameras after two weeks. Old batteries can discharge over night, but may provide near normal service immediately after being charged. Battery pairs no longer usable in cameras may work well in flashlights. Do not drop batteries on a hard surface or allow voltage below one volt as this could result in polarity reversal.
Digital cameras reset to original settings if batteries are removed for one minute. Time varies with function/camera. Check display/setup menu for non-auto functions and date/time. Remove extra memory to eliminate this as a possible problem. Insert fully charged/cleaned batteries and restart camera. The ultimate non-physical repair for software-using devices is reset by removing power ... VCR/DVD players one month.

Answer by Hola
I recommend you start off with a semi-professional digital SLR. It will probably cost you around 400 - 700 dollars depending on the brand and/or features.
Something like:
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Canon+-+EOS+Digital+Rebel+XS+10.1-Megapixel+Digital+SLR+Camera+-+Black/8929699.p?id=1214611419717&skuId=8929699
or
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Canon+-+EOS+Digital+Rebel+T1i+15.1-Megapixel+Digital+SLR+Camera+-+Black/9318954.p?id=1218084392413&skuId=9318954
if you're willing to go a bit pricier.
A major difference in those two, is that the 2nd one (EOS Digital Rebel T1i) has 15 mega-pixels, as opposed to the 1st one (EOS Digital Rebel XS) which has 10.1 mega-pixels.
You can check out the rest of the features :)
Nikon and Canons don't have too much of a difference, when one comes out with a new product/feature, the other soon comes to compete. Nikon though, is an older company, but Canon has also come to the same in recent years.
Personally, I prefer Nikons, just because they appear to have a different ambiance when taking the picture that I like.
If you notice, they have right about the same kinds of features as the Canon (and price!):
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Nikon+-+10.2-Megapixel+Digital+SLR+Camera+-+Black/9456803.p?id=1218107268800&skuId=9456803
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Nikon+-+12.3-Megapixel+Digital+SLR+Camera+-+Black/9311755.p?id=1218082646627&skuId=9311755

Answer by fhotoace
One that is fully adjustable like a 35 mm SLR or a dSLR.
At present the camera with the most bang for the buck is the Nikon D3200. Its sensor outperforms many of the older full frame dSLR;s and costs less than $ 700 with a lens.
The lens you will want to buy to shoot fashion will be the 24-70 mm f/2.8
That camera and lens will get you started learning to use a fully adjustable camera.
To shoot fashion, you will want to spend a lot of time looking at the way fashion photographers light and compose their models. Model Mayhem and One Model Place are too good resources for doing that. What you can do for practice is use your friends. Practice applying makeup and using dramatic lighting.
If you are able to take a class in photography at your school or as a workshop/seminar, you will quickly learn how to use your camera without having to think much about it when setting the proper exposure. As a fashion photographer you will want to be spending your time directing your models into amazing poses and composing them just right in the lighting you have or have set up.
Good luck on your adventure with a camera

Answer by Johnny Martyr
personally, i think film cameras are better low light cameras in some ways. simple 1950's medium format cameras like the voigtlander perkeo can produce nearly grain-free images at 3200 and 6400 iso. this camera is extremely light weight and doesn't require batteries/charging but could require a light meter if you are not comfortable with shooting without one. the camera is cheap but the film can be expensive to process if you shoot colour and don't process your own b&w. b&w can be very cheap though. in either case, you will be able to make images of higher resolution than multi thousand dollar dslr's and i think these kind of cameras are more satisfying to use. they are also more rugged and reliable in harsh conditions yet cheap enough that you won't kill yourself if anything happens to it.

You have to buy something specifically tailored to waterproof your camera. Like buying a coat. "Convert" is a very poor choice of words, "how do you make your camera waterproof"... you can't convert it, it will always be a non-waterproof camera. O_o

This might sound dumb but my camera has 12.1. I am a photographer so I need that many MP. I would say that 7 is a perfectly fine MP to have. That is the size of a standard poster. I would also say that canon is the best type of camera and would suggest the canon powershot.

I think she'd really appreciate a digital camera with a cell phone attached.
Find out her current cell phone provider, and buy her a new phone for that. Most of them have 1.3 megapixals or better these days. The Sony Ericssons are the most popular. For the same price, why not have both in one unit?

Answer by eyeofjake
Stick to SLR cameras ONLY. No pro shooter uses a point and shoot. You need total control of your camera.
An intermediate range camera is all you need. You won't spend more than say 500-800 bones. Sadly, digital cameras aren't cheap compared to film but oh well. Those days are gone. What you need to spend good money on is the lens. NEVER BUY CHEAP LENSES! PERIOD!!! You can have the best camera in the world but if your lens is crap, every image will be crap.
You need to learn how to manipulate aperture, shutter speed, ISO, water balance, image temp, etc... Either find a good book on it, a photographer that can teach you, or take classes.

Answer by fhotoace
What are you saying when you say a camera is only good for a certain amount of clicks. Are you talking about shutter cycles? Are you talking about how many shots you can take before the camera buffer fills and you have to wait until those images write to the memory card?
What exactly do you mean by "stop motion"
What that could mean is freezing the action when shooting sports. That just takes a high shutter speed, 1/500th or faster
What it could also mean is something called time-lapse photography, were incremental shots are taken over a specific period of time and then later compiled and played back as a video
What do YOU mean by "stop action" and tell us more about your number of clicks on a camera.
One of my cameras has over 200,000 shutter cycles on it and it is working just fine
The camera I use when shooting time lapse is an old Nikon D200. I can set it up on a tripod, set the exposure manually and use an AC adapter to power it as long as necessary or until I fill the memory card
