Digital Photography: Five Reasons Why You Must Consider It

By Dan Westwood

Are you still making use of a typical camera? Stop chucking away your time and money. There are a number of reasons to take on digital photography. Digital photography allows one to have immediate gratification of seeing their pictures, doesn't need a black room, creates very similar quality pictures, are easy to work with, and will save you money.

Instantaneous Gratification

When you use a traditional camera to take a picture, you have to wait until the film has been developed in order to see the picture. However when you take your pictures with a digital camera, you can see the pictures straight away on the screen.

No Black Room Required

Digital cameras do not need a dark room to develop the film. All you require is a PC, which if you are reading this already have. You don't have to deal with messy chemicals so that you can process the film. You will not have to smell, touch, or procure those chemicals either. Digital photos cannot be spoilt as simply as negatives. They can be kept online in multiple places. Physical negatives can be damaged and cracked.

Same Quality

A lot of individuals think that traditional cameras will take a better picture than their digital counterparts. Yet this is not the case. Many digital cameras can switch optical lenses just like normal one. Along with being able to zoom optically, one can also zoom on a target digitally.

You'll Save Money

Film is high-priced. Paying to develop film, weather you do it yourself in your own black room or have another person do it for you, is even more expensive. When you use a digital camera you never need to buy a roll of film or pay someone to develop the pictures. In truth at most stores you can print individual digital photos cheaper then developing individual negatives.

Digital Is Everywhere

Digital photography is everywhere because it is so much easier to work with. The medium itself is universal. One can take a picture with their phone, upload it to a social network such as Facebook for their friends to view, and have them printed out in moments. Digital photos can be sent in emails, text messages, and carried on USB jump drives. - 32363
