The holidays are fast approaching.. a couple of my friends and officemates are planning to buy their own cameras and are asking suggestions on what to choose. As an answer, I write this blog post for everyone who will be receiving their 13th to 16th month pays this December and will be buying a photographic tool for themselves... If you find this article helpful, please remember me when you receive your bonuses.. lol :p

Choosing a camera to buy can sometimes be frustrating given the many options in the current market (types, brand, models, features, etc.). So before jumping into the DSLR bandwagon, let's know more about the different types of cameras that are widely popular and available today so that you can decide what type of camera will best fit you. :)
I'd like to give four categories of cameras and describe them, including their pros and cons based from my personal experience. The categories are:
1. Compact point-and-shoot cameras
2. Bridge/superzoom cameras
3. Mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras
4. DSLRs
