Film-less photographs, pictures on a
chip, scanned memories, call it what you will, digital photography is a
phenomenon of technology that allows for instant gratification. The Internet
Brothers have been dabbling in digital imagery for years now, so we'll
share some of what we've learned with you.
Step One
- If you have years of experience with traditional 35mm photography, you will
discover some obvious and immediate differences when you start using your brand
new digital camera. Here are a few gotchas to watch out for and features to
enjoy. We want you to be absolutely sure before you spend your hard-earned
money.
Digital
Techniques - Some professional and serious amateur photographers wince
at the thought of low resolution photos rendered with a computer, ignoring the
fine art of traditional photography. Make no mistake, digital photography is
here, it’s big, and it’s the way things will be from now on. The Internet
Brothers believe traditional film photography will be a thing of the past
within ten years except for those few die-hards who refuse to give up.
I Can't Decide - We get a lot of questions from
readers about what to look for when choosing a digital camera. Let us guide
you through flash and red eye filtering, options to consider for transfer
of digital data, and differences in zoom lenses. FYI, if you want to see up-to-date
comparisons and prices of digital cameras, we have learned the best place is
Digital Camera HQ.
Experience is the best teacher.
Digital
SLR Cameras - If you're seeking the best image quality, or planning very large
prints for your photos, consider a digital SLR. They generally use better
lenses, and you can attach a variety of len types from wide-angle to telephoto
to zoom. They allow full manual control of exposure and focus. At the very
least, consider the image sensor size in the cameras you look at.
Touch Ups -
Get rid of dust and specks, balance the colors, create a matte or mask, merge
images. There's a lot you can do with modern photographic editors. Here's a few
tips to help you perfect your online photograph. If you get really good at it,
send us a sample of what you've done, and we'll post it in our
Visual Guest Book.

Putting your photography into motion in 360° panorama has never been easier.
We'll guide you step by step from picking a spot, to setting your camera for
multiple frames, then stitching your shots together in movie format. Give your
web site an interactive look and feel with this cool tool. Make your friends
envious when you show them what you can do.
Digital
Photo Storage - You may not think much of it when you're first starting
out, but over time, storing digital photographs on your computer can become a
hard disk resource constraint. You also want to protect the future readability
of your electronic photo album. Here's a few tips to help you, and your kids,
enjoy your new hobby well into the future.
