There has always been a debate about what is better. Traditional cameras
using film, or the so called new technology, storing pictures in digital
form on memory cards, in computers or on CD-Rom.
As being a photographer for more than half of my life, I stuck with
traditional film for very long. About 7 years ago I started to supplement
my work with photos taken the digital way. A point and shoot camera with
just 640x480 pixel resolution was the most attractive gadget I had these
days. Its lens was even capable of doing close-up work, using a macro
switch.
That Fujifilm DX-7 was upgraded with a bigger Memory-Card and the camera
served me well for several years.
Anyway, over time, I was still more satisfied with the possibilities my
collection of Pentax SLR cameras gave me. It started with using the best
lenses for each picture or just using a Zoom (which offers a range from
wide angle to telephoto), changing the shutter speed to either stop or
blur the motion of objects in the picture, use external flashlights,
change the aperture openings to adjust the range of sharpness and lots
more. Not forgetting the better picture quality I could get from a 35mm
negative or slide. I was happy to use my heavy, solid metal camera.
The world changed for me when camera makers like Nikon and Canon
introduced their Digital SLR Cameras. I went to my local camera shop every
week and debated with the salesman about advantages and disadvantages of
the models they had on sale. Also I checked with lots of users in online
services to get first hand feedback on how these cameras performed.
Finally, when Pentax introduced their Digital SLRs, I couldn.t wait much
longer. I needed to have one of those.
With the Pentax 1st DS have a whole list of advantages over smaller
Digital Cameras:
I can use the same lenses that fit my traditional camera
Have full control over speed and aperture
I can see the picture immediately after it is taken
I can shoot a series of pictures and choose the best (at no extra cost for
film or paper)
A good resolution of 6 Megapixel which allows quite big prints
It weights more than a compact digital camera, so you can hold it steady
more easily
Make use of all the filters, flashlights, lenses and accessories I have
collected over the years.
Storing the pictures on the PC via a fast USB connection
Up to 1 GB storage on a SD Memory Card (about 380 jpg photos)
Selecting only the best photos for printing
With all these advantages of digital SLR Cameras, you may wonder why I
still keep my old 35mm film cameras with me. First, it is emotional, and
second, photographing the old fashioned way keeps me calm. You just need
more time to produce an excellent, satisfying photograph (because you
cannot see the result right after the shot).
