Digital Camera Accessories - The Top 7 Accessories You Can't Live Without!
The anticipation of buying some digital camera accessories is just about as exciting as buying the camera itself. With so many trimmings to go with it, the digital camera will turn a simple hobby into a pleasurable profession with just a snap of the finger. When we begin looking at the digital camera of choice, we need to look at some of the accessories that will go with it. Some accessories will go with most cameras but some may be brand specific, so stay with the brand of the camera if you can when looking at their extras.
Accessories such as rechargeable batteries, a battery charger/AC adapter, memory card, soft camera case, camera bag, lens cleaning kit, tripod, external flash and filters, will all make the digital camera run more smoothly and efficiently. They add value to your photo shoots, and also increase the life of your camera. The worst thing in the world is to be out on a shoot, and have the battery go out or the memory card malfunctions.
There are some accessories more important than others, and some simply sell better than others. Right now, at the top of the accessory list for digital cameras are: (1) camera bags - for LCD scratches, general marks on the camera, with the Lowepor Micro Trekker 200 and the Lowepro Mini Trekker Classic as the two top selling bags; (2) memory cards - it is best to have one large card or a couple medium card.
(3) camera tripod - only purchase one of you are serious about photography; (4) photo printer - some of the best ones are the Canon i70/i80/i90 Portable Photo Printer, HP Photosmart 375 Photo Inkjet Printer, Epson PictureMate Personal Photo Lab Inkjet Printer, Kodak EasyShare Dock Plus Dye Sublimation Printer, and the Sony DFF-FP50 Digital Photo Inkjet Printer; and (5) Portable Storage Device and Card Reader - holds 7 memory card types and stores up to 100 GB of images; (6) photo editing software - always upgrade to a more advanced program; and (7) Digital Picture Frame - displays slide shows and receives photos across country.
One of the most important accessories, which really is a necessity, should be a lens cleaning kit to go along with the digital camera. You should never clean any optics of your camera using your shirt, fingers, water or breath. The kit, which costs a few dollars, includes a small blower brush, a soft cloth, a small plastic bottle containing the lens cleaning solution, and a number of lens cleaning tissues. Little specks of dirt on a photograph or smudges will cost a person time when they editing them out.
Digital cameras and their built-in flashes have a limited range of approximately ten feet, which is considered normal for most point-and-shoot cameras. This distance can be increased 18 feet on up to 40 feet, depending on the flash used as a slave flash, which is ANY photographic flash that has a sensor built into the unit. Many of these are sensitive enough to be activated 100 feet away in full sunlight, but are not restricted to outdoor use only.
Some of the new digital cameras that have "red eye reduction", also called pre-flash, require a special digital flash unit to act as a slave unit. But the older digital cameras without pre-flash will still work with slave units. But the first thing was to purchase a camera with at least 2X on up to an 8X optical zoom - not digital. Optical is the highest quality digital camera available, as the digital will take blurry photographs.
Another very important accessory is a tripod, for those of us who have the shakes and an unsteady hand. The tripod is needed to prevent camera shake, especially when the shutter speed drops below 1/60 second at a wide angle shot. Some digital cameras are equipped with an LCD monitor, which flashes a blinking light as a warning when the shutter speed is likely to cause a camera shake.
Also, a tripod is necessary when the photographer is too close to the object in macro photography. There are mini tripods and the regular tripods, with the minis pretty popular anymore as they are lightweight and can be stored easily.
Almost all digital cameras come with a small starter memory card, 16 or 32 MB. However, a professional photographer or a shutterbug may need a larger memory card - the more pictures on it, the faster it will disappear in room. A larger card will have more room so more pictures can be taken; we won't need to rush to our computer to transfer them off the memory card before we run out of room. We also have the option of using several small memory cards, sorted out per subject or job.
And last but not least, a battery charger or an AC adapter is very much needed, unless we keep a case of batteries on us at all times. But the battery charger is the number one choice as it allows us to continue charging spare batteries without interrupting our shooting. In the case of an AC adapter, the shooting will come to a halt while the battery is being charged.
It is also advisable to buy a spare set of rechargeable batteries as it saves us the embarrassment of getting stuck with drained out batteries during the middle of a photo shoot. Rechargeable batteries last longer, and will save us the bother of hunting for battery stores in desolate places. The price may be high at first, but it is better than losing a photography job or driving all the way to a camera store to repurchase what was forgotten in the first place!

Made to brew one or two cups, the pro-grade die cast and stainless steel housing is handsome and extremely durable. Three-year limited warranty. Model EM-100.
Customer Review: Nice froth, but filter basket leaks
Nice shot, nice crema, but the filter basket leaked despite all troubleshooting efforts. That was annoying and messy enough for me to give up on this machine.
Customer Review: Good machine
I have used this espresso machine severals times. I am still learning but I am pleased with the results so far. My lattes aren't hot enough which I found out was due to my steamed milk being cold. Other than that everything works well.
Krups XP2010 Combination Unit; 10 cup Coffee Maker & 15-bar Pump Espresso
Krups XP2010 Combination Unit; 10 cup Coffee Maker & 15-bar Pump Espresso
This dual function espresso/drip coffee machine has oversized controls that switch easily from brewing espresso to frothing milk. It features a 15 bar pump driven system with a die-cast thermoblock-heating element. The filter basket is conveniently stored in the lid and has a perfect froth steam nozzle. With a cup warming tray, removable water tank with optional water filtration, easy on/off button, visible water level indicator, and anti-drip system this machine is a coffee lover's dream.
Customer Review: Wish I'd read these reviews first!
I wish I had taken the time to read these reviews as I probably would not have bought this machine. I am experiencing many of the issues outlined in the reviews such as the poor frothing ability and tendency for the wand to fire itself into a jug of hot milk resulting in minor scalding and a huge mess. In addition the whole machine regularly disappears into a cloud of steam after using the espresso function and sometimes the drip side too. The filter gasket for pods leaks steam (thus losing pressure crucial for good espresso shots) no matter how small I cut down the pod.
Basically I have been persevering with this item for months now such that I am unlikely to be able to return it. It is fatally flawed. I would give it away but for fear that someone will burn themselves using it! I'm severely disappointed that Krups would manufacture such a poor piece of equipment.
I almost never write reviews so please: take heed! Pick a different machine - this one is terrible!
Customer Review: XP2010 Combination Coffee Maker Expresso
Am very satisfied with this product. Makes great coffee and expresso. The frothing is a little weak. You must run the cycle twice to get milk warm enough to froth. Easy cleanup. Makes coffee in about 3 to 4 minutes.

After loosing my battery charger for my Nikon camera I found out that Nikon doesn't carry the original charger any more - very disappointing, since the camera is only a few years old. I tried several off-brand chargers which just did not give the battery any charge. Then I found the exact Nikon charger that I lost on Amazon through PCMonde and it works great.
Customer Review: Battery is fine
This item came quickly, was nicely packed, and it works in the camera just fine. This is a great item. You should have a spare charged up and ready to go at all times. M
