Anyone that has had anything to do with taking pictures or photography in the past and has switched to DSLR Photography (Digital Single Lens Reflex) will be more than aware of some of the many benefits and bonuses of taking pictures in this way. The people that have not yet tried their hand at using a digital camera for whatever reason are possibly missing out on an opportunity to get in touch with their artistic side by using digital technology...
Digital cameras and mega-pixel power have really come of age and seems to be sweeping across the entire globe, in some cases manufacturers are having trouble keeping up with demands and even selling out of some models before they have even been released.
So what is it that is causing this massive digital photography frenzy? With cameras and evolution there have been many different types of camera with as many different formats for storing images on them. Prior to the digital evolution the most common type was called a 35mm. The photographer could take up to 36 pictures with a variation of different exposures.
This meant carrying around plenty of film and had several disabilities. The film had to be loaded manually, which involved opening the back of the camera and scrolling it across the back of the lens, on top of that was the actual taking of the pictures. You could take a picture, but until arriving at a chemist to collect your developed pictures had no idea what they would look like or even if they had come out at all.
There are many other factors that make 35mm SLR (single lens reflex) photography more of a hobby for the dedicated photographer while on the other hand digital photography is more enjoyable and a type of recreation that appeals to a much wider audience.
A digital camera has no film, simply a memory card that can be removed and plugged straight into a computer or a USB lead that offers the same facility. Some of these cards can store thousands of pictures, which does away with the carry film around aspect.
The majority of digital cameras have an LCD screen on the back so you can see exactly what the picture that you have just taken will look like, if you do not like the look of it you can simply delete it there and then.
Once the memory card is installed in your computer or patch lead connected you can view the pictures instantly on screen, import and save to a file or print off to enable you to show the pictures to others.
Another way of sharing the pictures is by installing them onto a memory stick. Most people tend to have a computer or lap top these days so when visiting simply plug your memory stick into their device and view at leisure.
Alternatively you can even use additional patch leads from the camera and plug straight into a digitally compatible television and see your pictures on the big screen.
All these things go together to make up a really attractive package for ease of taking pictures and displaying them, but on top of all that is the automatic settings on a majority of DSLR cameras that allow users to take amazing pictures simply by pointing and pushing a button. All you have to do is zoom in and zoom out the focus and other settings are all fully adjusted automatically. The quality of picture is achieved by means of what is called Mega-Pixels and most digital cameras have millions of them, which produce amazing quality shots.
Having said how easy to use a DSLR camera is this makes it the ideal partner to pick up and take with you when going virtually anywhere. It is one of those things that are hard to put down once you get started. DSLR Photography turns any novice into a true professional in minutes.
So I guess when you look at the comparisons it is easy to see why Digital Photography and Cameras have gone through the roof and become so popular with almost everyone becoming involved or knowing someone that now has the bug...
