Digital Cameras

What Is a Digital Camera?
Digital cameras utilize an electronic image sensor to digitally record still photos or short videos. Today's digital cameras are notable because they are usually accompanied by LCD screens, and can immediately display an image after it has been photographed. Digital cameras also incorporate memory devices that can store up to thousands of images at a time. Most digital cameras are lightweight, compact, and perfect for the casual photographer.

I Should Buy a Digital Camera because...

I like digitally sending photos to friends and family.

I think that I might like to be a serious photographer, but would like to hone my craft on something more modestly priced.

I need a camera that I can shoot at a moment's notice.

I enjoy manipulating the images I've taken and creating special effects.

What Is a Digital SLR Camera?
DSLR cameras, as they're sometimes referred to, stand for Digital Single-Lens Reflex. These complex machines make use of a mechanical mirroring system that directs light from a lens to an optical viewfinder located on the back of the camera. DSLRs are the preferred camera of serious photographers due to their larger image sensors and ability to frame their subject in such away that displays exactly how the image will look. DSLRs also allow the user to choose between a variety of lenses and offer accurate depth of view before they shoot.

I Should Buy a Digital SLR Camera because...

I want the best camera available and money is not an issue.

I am a serious and experienced photographer and want to upgrade to a model that allows me to take better pictures.

I'm unhappy with my digital camera and would like to take a more focused photograph with a greater depth of field.

I am a professional whose job demands that I take the best possible picture I can.

Photography is my favorite hobby and I wish to impress others with my work.
