Before you actually buy a new camera, you have to determine what you want to do this it. If you want to post your photos online, email them or make small prints for your family albums, then it is enough for you to look for a camera with low resolution. For example, 2 megapixels camera will create an image that could be a high quality 6x4 print. The majority of entry level SLR cameras start at about 6 megapixels.
