Information For The Novice Snapper
By Nats Musder
A photograph camera is the device you make pictures with. Thru photographic film or in more current days a chip or sensor you are able to capture light and make a photograph! The storage medium could be the strip of film or a hard disk, sd or xd card.
If you want to form or shoot a photograph you need to control the lens to persuade the amount of light that's being let through. On the digicams you do this by using the interface and with analogue devices you use the lens itself for this. The light is then stored on the storage device I called earlier prepared to be either processed. When you are using an analogue camera you proces in a lab or with a machine to develop the film. What happens then is that a chemical reaction lifts the colours out of the film. This is because of the reaction between the chemical liquids and the surface of the printing paper.
Digital Photography
With electronic cameras you record or shoot the photo and the light is captured by a CCD or CMOS chip. This chip translates the light info into a digital format. What you are left with is a raw, jpeg or other sort of file on the storage medium. The rationale digital photography is favoured by the common public is it's simplicity of use. You simply put your card into the PC. Some cameras can be linked with the computer with a USB connection. Either way you have direct accessibility to your photos and you do not need to wait for a lab to end developing your film! The final result is the same because digital photos can be revealed too. Some photography enthusiasts still like analogue cameras though. To them it has got a special feel to it which can on occasion be seen but you can not truly point it out as such.
The second enormous merit of digital photography is that you can test your stills before you print them. If you have shot on film you've got to know the sensation. You pick up your prints and 1/2 of the stills are just a blur of persons, completely black or completely washed out. You're expected to pay as much for these prints as you pay for the normal ones! And that's fair. The lab should not need to lose revenue thanks to the inability of their clients! Either way, with digital photography you now have the ability to pick the stills you want to print before going to the lab!
I shoot a large amount of kinderportretten. Parents can be very picky so it's best to shoot a large amount of photo's and present them a massive selection to select from. Digital photography makes this possible!
