Long before you learn the photography, the most important thing is that you must have a camera – any kind. For those of you who are looking for information before deciding to buy a digital camera, this article will explain the types of cameras available on the market and what are the differences.
Pocket camera
Pocket camera is a type of camera the majority (nearly 90%) which is in the hands of consumers. As the name implies, this camera is small and really get into the pocket on your shirt.
Pocket camera can produce good photographs, sometimes remarkable. Pocket camera is also capable of recording video, extra features are very useful and preferred by consumers. However, please note the words in bold above. Usually good and sometimes outstanding photography is the reason why a true fan (and pro photographers) pockets camera eye view – merely as a stepping stone or as a backup.
Several factors that make the limited ability of a pocket camera:
- Shutter lag, defined as the time lag between when you pressed the shutter button and the camera starts recording. Is the biggest reason why pocket cameras are very limited. This time lag may be only half a second, but in this second half there will be an important event-cool-funny-spectacular that it is not recorded into photos.
- Lousy in low light condition, pocket camera has a sensor (a small light-sensitive chip rectangular function that replaces the film) is very small. In general, the smaller sensor of a camera getting his ugly image quality. Small sensors which mean that only recorded a bit of light, color quality is mediocre and weak when dealing with the condition dim. What are the consequences? The first is a photograph tends to blur (not sharp) and second images tend to have a lot of noise (spots around the area of the photo).
- Limited Zoom, has a pocket camera then you are bound to live off the lens of the innate nature to. We cannot change lenses as needed. Pocket camera is factory set to have a lens that can be used for public needs and can do 3 to 4 times magnification.
