"Just about every camera, digital or otherwise, that I know, has a tripod mount on it. So that's pretty much a given. Other features that may be quite good, are the ability to connect to a power supply, either AC, where you plug it in the wall socket or a cigarette lighter connection. So, if you're shooting shots inside, you know, and you don't need to walk around to do this, then you could plug it in the AC and just shoot and have an extension cord and you could even walk around with that. Also, they have audio/video out so you could play your photos on your computer or through a TV set that's set up for this kind of operation. In a lot of cases, they have what you call a joystick type approach to the menus. So, you can turn this and it will affect the screen here and you'll be able to find all the information within the LCD panel."
