According to Chinese traditions, supreme imperial dragon also symbolizes masculinity and all yang related powers. Therefore, if you wish to add more yang energy within an environment, you can do so by placing a supreme imperial dragon in it. Ideally, it should be placed at a high table where he can feel important and dominate environment in which he is.

If you are an ambitious person, whose work involves dealing with people on a daily basis and negotiating with them, you should have a supreme imperial dragon at your work place. Another way of keeping this item and receiving its benefits is by carrying it with you. This way, you could have you persuasion and negotiation skills enhanced at any moment and wherever you go.

Exposure Control The ability to control exposure settings such as shutter speed and lens opening is critical to professional photographers. Cheaper digital cameras only allow you to shoot photos in automatic mode - just press shutter release and voila, your picture is taken. More advanced users prefer to tweak shutter speed and aperture to capture fast moving objects or blur image background. Choose a camera with good exposure control if you foresee yourself taking on photography as a serious hobby.

User Controls If you are getting a point-and-shoot camera, make sure you find one that's easy to use. User controls to set resolution, macro mode, flash and exposure should be within easy reach. Of course, if you're a serious photography buff who wants to take time to tweak all sorts of manual settings, then this many not be so critical. I prefer to try out camera first in store - play with controls and get comfortable with them. Only then will you know whether it's comfortable enough for you.

Conclusion Well, I do hope this article has helped you understand what factors to consider when buying a digital camera. A general piece of advice I can give is - if you're a total newbie, don't go for latest digital SLR. It may be tempting to get that Nikon D70 right from start, but I'd reckon its much better to start off with a cheaper camera first. Learn, experiment and build up your digital photography skills. Once you're more skilled, then proceed to upgrade to a better camera. Good luck and happy shopping!
