- Typical Compact: Cameras intended for everyday or amateur use. They feature an optical lens, shooting settings, and are ideal for those seeking classic digital photo quality or the "retro look" of the 2000s.
- for Kids: Toy-like cameras designed for children. They feature a durable, colorful body, built-in games, and creative effects, focusing on fun and ease of use rather than high photo quality.
- Thermal Printing: This feature allows the camera to print the photo immediately after it is taken, using special thermal paper (similar to that used in cash registers or receipts).
- Image Stabilization: Reduces image blur caused by hand movement. Essential for clear shots in low light conditions or when using zoom.
- Built-in Flash: Features built-in lighting that can be activated automatically or manually. Essential for shooting indoors, at parties, or in dark environments to illuminate your subject.
- Waterproof: Devices that allow shooting underwater (sea, pool), either due to their waterproof construction or because they include a special waterproof case in the package.
- Viewfinder: The "eyepiece" you look through to frame your photo. Very useful when bright sunlight makes the rear screen hard to see or when you want greater stability while holding the camera.
- CMOS: The most modern and widespread sensor. It is extremely fast, consumes little energy, and delivers crystal-clear photos with very low digital noise (grain) when shooting at night.
- CCD: Older technology sensor. Although it consumes more battery and is slower, many prefer it for its vintage aesthetic, as it produces very vivid, "filmic" colors in daylight (a trend that has made a strong comeback).
- Stacked CMOS: The top and most premium sensor category. It features built-in memory on the chip itself, allowing the camera to shoot photos at incredible speed (burst mode) and record video in impressive super slow-motion.
- MOS: A variation of CMOS technology (mainly used by Panasonic). It offers excellent color fidelity, high sharpness, and very good performance when recording Full HD or 4K video.
