Watch Toy Story 3 -Toy Story 3 Movie

Toy Story 3 is a great movie that will be hitting theaters very soon! This is a great movie that will be sure to entertain your family and friends!  Toy Story 3 is a movie that everyone will enjoy because the elements of the film blend together very well. The film makers of the film added many elements of the film that make this a really great film.
Technology has improved throughout the years when it comes to movies. Quality of films are getting much better even tho many film makers still use traditional film as opposed to digital cameras.
Toy Story 3 still uses traditional film to film the movie because film has always been around as the traditional format for making movies. There is something magical about using film that makes movies special. Some film makers do not like using digital while others like using it because it is much cheaper to shoot digital
than to shoot on 35mm film. Will films be all shot on digital in the near future or will films continue to be shot on traditional film? Only time will tell!
So watch Toy Story 3 when it premieres in theaters soon! This is a great film to watch if you are going out on movie night and can't decide what movie to see. WIth so many movies in the theaters to choose from it is sometimes hard to decide what you really want to see. Definately check this film out though on your next visit to the big screen!

    Canon EOS Rebel T2I 18 MP Cmos aAPS-C Digital SLR Camera With 3.0-inch LCD Review

    The new flagship of the EOS Rebel line, Canon EOS Rebel T2i brings professional EOS features into an easy to use, lightweight digital SLR that's a joy to use. Featuring a class-leading 18.0-megapixel CMOS image sensor and increased light sensitivity for low light photography, the EOS Rebel T2i also has an advanced HD Movie mode for gorgeous Full HD movies. Able to capture up to 3.7 frames per second, it's ready to go the minute it's picked up. Advanced Live View, a new wide-area screen, plus features like Canon's brilliant Auto Lighting Optimizer and Highlight Tone features ensure brilliant photos and movies, easily. With some of the most advanced features of any digital SLR, it's simply the best Rebel Canon has ever created.
    EOS Rebel T2i Highlights
    18.0-megapixel CMOS (APS-C) sensor and DIGIC 4 Image Processor
    The EOS Rebel T2i has an 18.0-megapixel CMOS sensor that captures images with exceptional clarity and tonal range and offers more than enough resolution for big enlargements or crops. This first-class sensor features many of the same new technologies as used by professional Canon cameras to maximize each pixel's light-gathering efficiency. Its APS-C size sensor creates an effective 1.6x field of view (compared to 35mm format).
    DIGIC 4 Image Processor
    The Canon DIGIC 4 Image Processor dramatically speeds up the entire EOS Rebel T2i's camera operations for intuitive operation and offers improvements in both fine detail and natural color reproduction. It works in concert with the EOS Rebel T2i's CMOS Image Sensor to achieve phenomenal levels of performance in nearly any situation.

    Capture stunning shots in low light.
    ISO 100-6400 (expandable to 12800) for shooting from bright to dim light
    The EOS Rebel T2i features an expanded ISO range that makes shooting possible in situations previously unthinkable without flash. With an ISO rating up to 6400 (expandable to ISO 12800), along with the DIGIC 4 Image Processor's improved noise-reduction technology, creative possibilities abound. Combine the EOS Rebel T2i with one of Canon's EF or EF-S lenses with Optical Image Stabilizer and the shooting possibilities for both movies and stills expand even further.
    Improved EOS Movie mode with manual exposure control
    Designed for the evolving, tech-savvy user, the EOS Rebel T2i features HD Video capture technologies--manual exposure control for more creative control, for example--borrowed directly from professional Canon SLRs to capture stellar video with all the benefits of shooting with an SLR. By shooting video with the EOS Rebel T2i, photographers as well as filmmakers can take advantage of the creative features native to SLR cameras. Along with its manual controls, the EOS Rebel T2i allows for full use of Canon EF and EF-S lenses, including Macro and Fisheye, providing a plethora of shooting options once reserved only for still photography. The resulting HD video is a standout in its beautiful depth-of-field characteristics and remarkable capture capability under poor lighting conditions. In a first for EOS cameras, a Movie Crop function is included: An SD-quality movie (640 x 480) can be cropped to the equivalent of about 7x magnification of regular shooting.

    5 Common Beginning Photography Mistakes

    35mm camera

    Photography is an exciting and challenging hobby that is accessible to almost everyone who has an interest in it. The learning curve can be rough or steep depending on the methods you wish to learn, but for the most part everyone has the potential to pick up a camera and create interesting work right from the beginning. Then again, there are a few common pitfalls that you may wish to avoid if you're just getting started.

    How to take photos in the sun

    Here is a photography tutorial for how to deal with bright sunny days. Many photography books say to never take photos in the sunniest part of the day, but if you have to, this video may help you a lot.


    You can find many polarizing filters on Amazon.com here

    Use a Digital Camera Reviews

    Reviews can be tricky if they are provided by a specific manufacturer or sponsor of a specific company they may be slanted in favor of one product or service over another so it is a bit difficult to know just how to use the digital camera reviews to locate the right camera for your own needs.However, before you can make heads or tails of the reviews, you must educate yourself about the technical terms behind the technology of digital cameras.Shopping for a new digital camera can be quite frustrating with the hundreds of choices available. Digital camera reviews clarify this confusion by comparing camera features and options then rating how each camera compares with similar models.
    These are the heart of a digital camera and determine photo quality, so closely compare how the reviewer rates them. Digital camera marketing would have us believe it's all about more megapixels. But it's more complicated than that. Evaluate how each camera's review rates pixel quality not just quantity. Some cameras will actually take better pictures with fewer pixels.In the domain of civilization, this mode of development is not praiseworthy nor is it morally justifiable. Since it is not morally justifiable it is socially irresponsible. Certainly, no successful medium or large business can be run today without computers and the software that makes them useful.
    In many ways lenses for digital cameras are simpler and less expensive than for conventional 35mm cameras. Even so, sensors and processors can't produce a better photo than what's visible through the lens. Compare the ratings because cheap lenses can distort images and colors.

    Canon T3i Review

    The Rebel T3i / 600D is feature-rich, reasonably priced, enjoyable to use and, most importantly, takes great pictures. It's not a particularly innovative camera but it is a generally well planned one. Unlike the original Rebel / 300D, the T3i doesn't sit in isolation - if you want a smaller or easier-to-use camera, there are plenty of options (including the increasingly competitive mirrorless brigade). However, in keeping with previous models in the range, it's an impressive camera for the money and it's hard not to imagine owners loving theirs.

    Trusted Reviews have just completed their review of the Canon T3i.
    Click to check our price


    They said:
    "Given that the twelve-month-old 550D is set to remain in production for the time being as a kind of kid brother to the 600D, is the newer model worth the extra £150 or so? Well, of course, that very much depends on your priorities. If an articulated screen is at the top of your must-have feature list, then only the 600D can deliver this. In many other respects, however, the 600D is much the same camera as the 550D. That’s not to do the 600D down in any way. The new model adds some improvements and refinements to what was already a very good camera. Movie recording issues aside, the 600D remains a well specified and easy-to-use entry-level digital SLR that delivers consistently good results. As with all new models we’d expect the street price to fall a bit before long, at which point it’s definitely a camera that deserves to be on your shortlist."

    Digital Photography Vs. Film Photography: The Great Debate

    canon 35mm

    Ever since the introduction of the digital camera, a war has raged within the photography community. There are those that would claim 35mm film is the one true “professional” media, and digital its casual, amateur counterpart. Conversely, as costs decrease and quality increases, there is an ever-expanding group of working photographers that shoot and produce only in digital. So what is a consumer to think? Is 35mm still the way to go, or is it time to trade up for a new digital model? It’s time to break each format down and seal this deal, once and for all.

    Digital:  Amateur?

    It is true that there are many digital cameras on the market, and like their 35mm counterparts there is an endless supply of variables that can impact the images each one is capable of producing. Image quality (in terms of color contrast and depth of field) have always been a major concern for those taking digital images and is still one of the common excuses heard from the opposition. Add to this the fact that finding a digital camera that could match the sheer raw data contained in a photograph on film was both arduous and incredibly expensive, and the 35mm enthusiast has a fairly solid argument.
    Fortunately for the consumer, the price of an high quality digital camera has dropped sharply in the last few years. Canon's popular "Digital Rebel" line of SLRS (single lens reflexes) have given people an affordable entry level camera with near professional results for under $1,000. And since Canon isn’t the only camera company in the world, it’s a safe bet consumers can look forward to even better cameras at even lower prices as manufacturers double their efforts to be first in line at the retail counter.
    35mm:  Antiquated?
    In these modern times, why even use film at all? It’s certainly no secret that film has an unforgiving and often expensive learning curve, and recent trends show professionals leaning heavily on digital for precisely those reasons. After all, when taking pictures at an event like a Super Bowl, would it better to have the potential for thousands of pictures, or just the film you have with you? Sports photographers answered that question by taking over 10,000 digital images in a single Super Bowl game.
    However, just as some music enthusiasts claim that everything sounds better on a record, there are plenty of photographers who agree that there is no matching the warmth and familiarity of a fresh roll of film. In fact, developing film manually and printing photos in a darkroom is for some one of the most rewarding photographic experiences a photographer can have. Sure, photos can be powerfully edited using tools like Adobe Photoshop to remove almost any imperfection, but clicking a mouse is very different than the tactile sensations of a darkroom. And of course, having someone else print up a roll of film can take as little as an hour.
    And the Winner is…
    Neither! Based on the availability of technology and the vast resources devoted to this topic, there's really no single point that wins this battle. As with many debates, the winner here is going to be entirely up to the needs and desires of the individual. Families wanting to shoot and share their holiday memories on the fly may choose digital due to its instant gratification and convenience, while others may stick to good old film so they can print up doubles and put them into family photo albums. Thanks to powerful yet affordable innovations in digital and the classic, "do it yourself familiarity of film" the choice is now directly in the hands of the consumer- right where it belongs.
