Basics of the Digital camera

    Like most things in life when you first get something you are often unsure how to do it. The same can happen when you buy your first digital camera. You will no doubt be filled with facts, numbers, and jargon beyond what you know you are doing. We will try this article to help you with one of the jargon and show you what to look for when buying a digital camera. Another feature may not appeal to you unless you need your camera to perform certain tasks, however you should know exactly what you are buying so you can make good choices when you see one.

Pixels

     Camera adjustment is measured and advertised in megapixels. The idea of ​​this figure is the number of pixels the camera should take a picture of. In this case the maximum number of image quality you will be able to take. For example, if you buy a camera with a resolution of 4 Megapixels, the photos you take with that camera will be able to take pictures of 4 million pixels. Obviously if you think a 2 megapixel resolution camera will not create a glossy or detailed image like one of 4 megapixels.

     If you usually print your photos on your PC or send them to be printed then your camera rate may be very important to you. High megapixels on your camera will allow you to make the print larger in size while still maintaining quality. If you try to print a larger image than the camera, the image loses much of its quality.

     The last thing you need to know about megapixels is that the decision you make is high which will take up a lot of space on your memory card. A photo taken with a 4 megapixel camera will require twice as much space on a memory card as a photo taken on a 2 megapixel camera. Make sure that if you want quality photos to have enough memory on your camera to make a backup copy, you can either have backup media cards to connect when your space is used.

Digital Zoom and Optical Zoom

     There is no doubt that when you buy a camera you will need some kind of zoom function to take the ones that are far away. This is a difficult place for some first-time buyers. There are two types of zoom in the digital camera market. Digital Zoom and Optical Zoom. The only thing that really matters is Optical zoom, this is actually a real zoom function that zooms things around you using the Optics camera. Digital Zoom is like using a zoom function in a photo editing software package. It enlarges the part of the image so that it looks closer to you.

     Anything you can do with digital zoom you can do with a photo editing package so you don’t spend a lot of money on a camera with only digital zoom. Sometimes you will advertise as "total zoom" which means the number quoted here is the zoom optical zoom added to increase digital zoom. Try to find the magnitude of the zoom one by one with the actual camera value.

Hole Size

     We may be moving forward here than some of you would like to care but be patient as the size of the hole can have a big impact on your photos. The hole size determines how much light enters the camera when your photo is taken. Think of a hole like the iris of your eye. There’s nothing great you can think of, however having more light allows you to take better photos in a variety of light conditions, cloudy days are a perfect example.

     With a hole large enough you will not need light, I personally do not like to use light work, the light produced does not always do justice to the image you are trying to take. And effects like the red eye are also common.

Shutter speed

     Good results can be achieved in photos using various shutter speeds. The thing to look for when buying a decent digital camera with shutter speed is the widest range you can get. This will give you the best chance to manipulate the image the way you want. Combined with the active space shutter speed can make the images come alive or stop the images in an instant.

     This process is ideal if you want to take things moving in the way they look like they are still standing. Setting the shutter speed in slow motion provides additional exposure to CCD (charge a compatible device - digital equivalent of a film). The result is that the image almost seems to work. The moving objects are a little darker. You may think this is a bad thing but take the example of a water flow that leaves the closing time for a long time will soften the image and make the image pleasing to the eye in the same way as a waterfall in real life.

     You can take extreme digital photos with a camera with a very wide range of shut-off speed. With an incredibly slow shut-off speed, you can get a long light on the CCD and get like the famous traffic scenes where the lights come together into a constant stream.

Storage Media

     Digital Cameras come with a slot for a variety of media cards. Check when you buy your camera what kind of storage media it needs. There are a few popular types including Smart Media, compact flash and xD photo cards. As long as you know what kind of person you are you should be able to do it safely in the right way. Always ask at your local store if you are unsure. When you give them your make-up and model they should be able to point you in the right direction.

     The size of the media card you choose depends on your budget but get more that you can afford. Extra memory means you do not need to change media cards, and you will always be able to take high quality photos. You will soon learn the benefits of having more storage space when you start using your camera regularly.

     The good thing about camera media is that it's like a movie if you run out of it you can easily get into it
