Digital Cameras


Recommended Posts

Sumakit ulo ko dun ah... :lol:

 

So, pag point & shoot, what you capture is what you get..

 

Sa DSLR, may ipipihit kpa sa camera para makuha yung gusto mong style ng lighting...

 

Yun ba yun?.. :)

 

The difference is not in the kind of image you get but rather in how the image is capture BY THE CAMERA.

 

Point and shoot cameras and also referred to as 'idiot cameras' ostensibly because the common belief is that they are so easy to use even an idiot will be able to take good pictures with them. In the days of film cameras these were also called 'instamatics'. In the days of film, there was no way you can preview how your picture will turn out beyond composition of the picture. This is because light acts differently on film as it does on the human eye. The latter makes intelligent adjustments so much so that more of what it sees is clear and in focus. A image through a glass lens that is projected onto a sheet of film will register differently depending on the sensitivity of the film, its age, the time of day, and whether you are shooting black and white or color film.

 

Instamatics, or point and shoot cameras were designed to allow the unphotography savvy to take well exposed pictures without the need for previewing the shot. They put their trust in the camera that the pictures will be good. This limitation has been overtaken by technology in the digital age. Because an imaging sensor has replaced film as the imaging medium and the picture being composed can now be displayed on a small LCD screenat the back of the camera so much so that an eyepiece has been rendered extraneous--you can preview a picture at arms length.

 

Point and shoot cameras are usually called rangefinder cameras. This means that the lens that projects the picture on to the image sensor is different from the lens that you peek through in the viewfinder--if you use it at all.

 

A single lens reflex camera (SLR) or it digital version (dSLR) uses only one lens to both project an image into the imaging sensor as well as to project it on to the viewfinder. The advantage to this arrangement is since only one lens is being used, this can be designed to be removable from the camera body and thus allow the use of different types of lenses.

 

In film SLRs. more aspects of a picture can be previewed apart from just composition: depth of field, exposure, and light metering through through-the-lens spot and averaging light meters built into some cameras.

 

For myself, I have since stopped using digital cameras although I have a nice Leica digilux 3. When you talk about creativity and picture quality that will endure through the years, nothing still beats a good film camera and a trained eye.

In fact, since I rarely need a telephoto lens, I have since ditched my SLR for a nice, old fashioned Voightlander Bessa R3A with only one lens, a very fast Voightlander Nokton 35mm/f1.2 with the Leica M mount and Leica lens hood. This is all an experienced amateur photographer needs. You don't even need flash.

 

This picture has the 40mm/f1.4 Nokton lens. Its what I call the poor man's Leica.
