Why use a Digital Camera?

Are you still using a regular film camera to take pictures of family, friends and vacation spots? Are you purchasing several rolls of film in the process that must be carried, installed, replaced and developed at an additional cost? Do you have your film developed, then pick it up when it's ready? The prints look great, why use a digital camera?

Digital images are less expensive.

First, it's not uncommon to fit 500 or more photos on a single memory stick. That is 10 rolls of film at the largest, high quality settings. These are repeated shots with no time out to change film or change film type. If you are using a film camera you would have to change film for both indoor and outdoor shots. If you buy a digital camera there is no need for frequent trips to the store. You save time, money and fuel by not having to purchase numerous rolls of film then have them developed.

Digital images can be enhanced.

Second, effective processing means it's possible to bring the not so good shots up to perfectly satisfactory images with an image enhancement program like Photoshop, without having to first scan the negative. If some pictures are too dark, they can be lightened. What you might have discarded to bad exposure or color can now be saved with a small amount of effort.

Digital images promote sharing.

Third, it is much harder to share film photos with family and friends unless everybody gets together. Digital images are of far superior to scanned images for the internet. With a digital camera it's easy to upload digital photos. Then, not only can family and friends view the digital photos, but they can download their own. You can also send images by email instead of sending printed photos by regular mail. This is faster, more convenient and relieves the photographer of the financial and organizational trouble of delivering the digital photos.
