Digital Photography in Desktop Publishing, Part 1

Before you buy a digital camera you need to ask yourself if you really need one. Might seem like a no-brainer to some of us but not everyone needs digital picture-taking capabilities. Even if you use digital photos in your work or have a basic digital camera for personal use, you might not necessarily need a professional quality digital camera if you don't plan to do your own photography for your desktop publishing projects. There are plenty of stock photo and rights-controlled photo options for commercial use.
