How to tell if your camera is an antique, lol

Digital Cameras, get one or I'll get one for you.

Do we still have to compare digital photography to traditional film cameras or can we turn the page and make this the last post about film ever?

Just in case you didn't know:

• Data can be stored on the image including date and time, type of camera, film speed and shutter speed (this is great for vacations); this assists in reviewing photos at a later date.

• The use of a tripod is all but eliminated due to the anti-shake tools in digital cameras.

• You can capture hundreds of photos for emailing and graphic uses without the need to print all of them and scan them into your computer.

• You print only the pictures you want, so you can take a lot of pictures. And, by changing the settings slightly, you can take as many shots as you want choosing only the best quality to keep.

• Storing photos on a computer is a lot cheaper than storing them on film, and they are much easier to access.

• With a consumer-grade printer, you can communicate directly with your camera or its memory card and print your own pictures.

• You can immediately view your pictures. If you don't like the picture, just take it over again!

• Film cameras are much larger than digital cameras with equal quality.

• Without the expense of developing film, you can experiment with the settings on a digital camera, allowing you to learn new techniques with no additional cost.

• Film cameras require a change of film every 24 to 36 pictures, with digital photography you can store hundreds of images on the same media device.

• Digital cameras can now be hooked up to your television, allowing you to review your photos with an audience.

• You have a home color darkroom for editing your pictures without the expense of a darkroom and its many chemicals.

• No more scanning of photos to view them on your computer.

• You don't have to pay the high cost of film processing and store many, many rolls of film and photographs.

Let me know your what your choice is, if you ever want to meet up at 60 minute photo that would be amazing! The possibilities are endless...
