I don't really know anything about digital cameras but I want to buy one. What are the cameras called, that are not digital, just "normal" ones? I used to like those better because the quality seemed to much more professional. The lighting seemed warmer, colors seemed brighter. On digital cameras it seems that everything looks paler, etc. Is it just me? I wanted a digital camera that had those qualities to it, with a good price, if possible. What kind of digital camera do you have?

I have a few but I love my Nikon D40; the price is great, it's small and light for a DSLR and, takes great photographs.

There are film (some technophobes call them analog) and digital cameras.
ReplyDeleteThere's nothing more or less "professional" about film or digital. It's just a personal (or financial) choice everyone has to make for themselves. I used film and love the pictures I got from it, but I believe my digital pictures are every bit as good.
Digital sensors reproduce pictures more like slide/transparency film than print/negative film. If you've never shot slides, it can be a more difficult adjustment for many.
The only type of picture that film is significantly better/different than digital is black & white. B&W film is made with silver chunks that give a unique look that is very difficult for digital to reproduce.
If you want the closest to film look, you'll need a D-SLR with a CMOS sensor (all the new Nikons, D5000 and above as well as Canon & most Sonys).
The biggest advantages for digital are 1) less wasted materials & chemicals and 2)easily switching light sensitivities (ISO) for bright & dark.
I use a Nikon D300 and love it.
i would recommend Point and shoots camera (Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28)

ReplyDeleteI just got back from a weeklong vacation, with over 1000 photos on this camera (having just gotten the camera a few days before the vacation). I would not say that any of the bad photos were because of the camera. Quite the opposite, I think it rescued some that would not have been very good on my older camera.

I'm planning of buying a digital camera. My friend introduce me to this wonderful world of photography. I also would like to know what's the best in the market. I hope somebody can answer my questions.

Thanks :)
SLR are professional grade "film" cameras.
ReplyDeleteYou can add color and warmth into digital photos if they seem washed out with software like photoshop or something free like Gimp.
I have a Canon digital Elph camera with 3X optical zoom. It's lasted me a long time and takes amazing photos. Be sure to get one with anti-blur. That will mess up more photos than anything else.
Most of the point and shoot digital cameras out there will be more than enough Megapixels (8-10+).
I'm using my brothers digital camera coz' my own camera was soak in water when I went to a beach for vacation. My brothers camera is Canon Digital IXUS 110 IS - Digital camera - compact - 12.1 Mpix. Here for more information: http://onsalenow.org.uk/?p=s&sch=details&store=61&prod=124616
