I saw (don't remember when) on HGTV or Food Network a gadget show with a set of bowls that have a dot system inside the bowl to let you know the portion size. For instance, a 1 cup bowl had 1 dot inside the bowl and a 1 1/2 cup bowl had 1 full dot and a half a dot. These bowls are just for everyday use such as cereal and whatnot. Does anyone know who makes these or where I can buy them?


Answer
If you go to the dollar store, you can buy a MEASURING CUP and make your own bowl!!

What qualities should I look for when purchasing a digital camera?

There are sooooo many different brands to choose from when it comes to digital cameras. I'm familiar with most of them but I'm still not sure what I should be looking for (besides the brand name and mega pixels). I'm a casual shooter but want that professional quality, but don't want to spend over $200. Any suggestions on which camera might suit me best or what qualities I should be looking for? Please be specific. Thank you.


Answer
It can be intimidating trying to figure out which digital camera is right for you. There are just so many factors.

1. Determine how much money you want to spend. Setting a budget, or at least a budget range, will help you avoid cameras that you could never afford. You can more easily target which models are affordable for you.

2. Carefully consider what you will usually be photographing. Is it family pictures of the kids playing? Will you be traveling often, and shooting landscapes? Look for cameras that have the best features for your needs. For instance, if you typically shoot sports and action, find a camera that can shoot at high speeds.

3. What is your experience level? If you are a beginner, look for models that seem easy to use. Go to the stores and handle the cameras personally. Find a camera that is as automated for things like flash, aperture, and so on. If you are more experienced, you will want a camera that gives the user more control.

4. Figure out what your photo printing needs are. For casual use and simply sharing 4x6 vacation photos with family, a basic 2-mega-pixel model is perfectly fine. If you plan to make larger prints, and make them frequently, you will need more mega-pixels. A 4-mega-pixel will produce good 8X10 photos.

5. How do you plan to store your images? If you have a computer with very little memory available and no CD burner, I don't recommend getting that hot, cool 7-mega-pixel camera even if your budget allows it. The images will be too large to store. If you do have a way to convert images to Cd's or have a huge hard drive, go for it.

6. Do you already have devices that use one type of memory card? If your digital camcorder and PDA all use the Secure Digital memory card, this may be a major deciding factor when purchasing a digital camera. Why spend so much money on multiple styles of memory card when you can just use the same card with all those gadgets? best camera reviews http://www.camerareview-blog.com
