Digital Camera Buying Guide – Fun Facts About Digital Cameras and Digital Photography
December 4th, 2010 | Author: admin
The central part of a DV camcorder is the CCD, or Charge Coupled Device. This sensor creates a video picture by recording the light intensity to recognize an image or shape, along with the color levels to reproduce a full color picture. There are several tape based DV camcorders that have both color eyepiece viewfinders and a flip out TFT LCD screen to view the action as well as the previous recorded footage.
Most tape-less models however, only offer the TFT screen to preview your captured video and to view while you make a recording. When you need to get closer to the action, a zoom lens can be a great feature. Don’t get swayed by the digital zoom figure however; as no matter how large it may be, you should always base your final decision on the optical zoom.
The optical zoom will give you a true indication of the video image, where digital zooms interpolate the available pixels to zoom in on an image. Optical zooms will normally range around the 10X mark, with digital zooms ranging from 100X and above.
If you’re a photo freak, be sure that you have enough memory in your camera to take all the wacky, freaky, funny and just about any photo you can. Think 512MB if you”re a photo junkie and takes pictures of just about anything.
Most of the latest cameras allow you to capture digital still images onto a removable flash memory card. The most popular media is SD or MMC, but Sony and Samsung cameras often capture to a memory stick.
If you are going to be bringing it everywhere, choose a handy and portable digital camera. This way, it won’t always feel as heavy and bulky as those cameras that you see professional photographers are always dragging on their neck. Don’t they ever get tired of that?!
