As an amateur, & as someone quickly approaching 50, I am amazed at the transformation the digital age has brought to photography. I recall as a kid how, my family would take photos with cheap 110 film cameras, only to have to wait till we could have the film developed. 1 Hour film developers helped, but you never knew if you got the picture you wanted, until it was developed. To make things worse, a photo ruined by a finger in the way of the lens, bad lighting, etc, was often of something you couldn't retake, such as a birthday party, wedding, vacation, etc. When I got my first digital camera it was actually in the form of a digital video camera. I took thousands of photos with it, even though they were only 1 Mega Pixel in size. Sometime afterwards, I even purchased a sub mega pixel camera, to learn how different the resolution was. I was even able to get some cool lens flares from this cheap camera. I am due for an upgrade from my current 8 Mega Pixel camera, I'm hoping for a digital SLR, nor that their prices have become affordable for the average person. I have decided to share my experiences here, as I can go into more detail in a blog on photography than on a standard facebook page. I just discovered facebook pages, so I might carry over content to a facebook page of that type. I will cover my god & bad experiences, what books I have used to learn a thing or too, & a few equipment reviews on the gear I use.
May we all have many more great things to snap a photo or video of.
