Does any one know which brand name of digital camera has the better quality over the rest of the namebrands?

I want to get a camera with 7.2 megapixels but any one know which is the so called best brand of digital camera I can buy?

monster, im willing to go as high as I have to, I really wanna get a camera so no budget....any ideas?

For a consumer or prosumer, "point and shoot" camera, my personal preference is Canon.

For a DSLR, my personal preference is Nikon, with Canon a close second.

However, there are some excellent rated cameras by other brands. My advice would be to choose a few specific models, then look up as many reviews on each as you can, and compare them to each other.

You can do this at these websites:

What 's your budget?

the bang for your buck 7.2Megapixel would be a Sony CyberShot, cost about $199, maybe cheaper online, go to www.cnet.com and look for editors picks for digital camaras, i think its 7th, thats really good compared to the higher end cameras, this is more of a starter camera but offers a big screen and clean look.

It's not quite that simple. No one brand is best overall. Canon is a solid choice, as is Panasonic, Fuji and Sony. Each have their own strength's and weaknesses. Actually- I like Kodak's colors the best, and their cameras are smokin' deals, but often don't have the edge when it comes to pixel peeping to compare image quality.

Also- the number of pixels aren't everything. A 6Mpix Fuji (F31fd for instance) will outresolve any of the 7.2Mp crop, because it uses a larger sensor.

The aforementioned brands are my favorites, but you wouldn't do so bad buying a Nikon, Pentax, Olympus or even Casio as well.

It really depends more on your particular needs and the individual camera you select.

I like canon.
