Why photography

     Why is photography one of the best hobbies?   In my opinion is because is one that you can explore without being a professional or having to take long courses or having to go to school or having to get a license  or sometimes even without having to buy expensive equipment, you don't have to have the best camera out there, you even use your cellphone and still get the an amazing picture of a sunset, photography is present anywhere one can take a beautiful picture of a flower or an interesting picture of an insect, it also be an artistic black and white picture, or a full of color and contract picture.  You can also have an awesome picture taken in the city, or in the country, also the best picture can be taken at the beach or near a desert, all this can be done without having to spend a single dollar, and also it gives an individual the chance to have sometime for her/himself to relax and see something beautiful.

The best camera

      The best camera is one that has the essential functions an everyday user may need.

  • It must have a desired zoom.
          many people don't know that there is two kinds of zooms, on one hand we have the digital zoom, which is not a real zoom since the camera is no getting closer to the subject but rather making it bigger in and artificial way, the zoom that you actually are looking for is the optical zoom what this means is that the camera is actually getting closer to subject when using this kind of zoom.

  • Get a known brand.
          Some brands are better than others, that is a fact that we can't denied but it also true that is better idea to get a known brand that a brand that you have never seen, first you get better support in case you were to need it, also better guarantees this can mean that if anything goes wrong you maybe able to repair the camera for free or cheap, or maybe even replace it if need to.


  •  Get the camera size that is best for you.
           This is can mean the difference between having a good experience when taking a picture or having the worst time of your life, one must decide what kind of camera one want, it can be small that can fit in one's pocket or purse or big with all the bells and whistles a camera can have.

Digital is better than Film

      Digital photography has change how people take pictures, it is easier and better in some ways especially when it come to ways to save those pictures, in one hand you don't need photo albums anymore those used a lot of space in the closet, the shelf or anywhere you store them, also the last longer a digital photograph is one that can last forever you don't have to have only one copy but instead have hundreds of them in different places, you can also send them anywhere in the world with a touch of a button,in conclusion digital photography is very flexible and versatile.  In contrast film photography is preferred by professionals in this field that believe that nothing compares to film for them is just part of the art of taking pictures, they have the opinion that is not only the best kind of photography but almost the only way to take pictures, this photographers don't mind having many rolls of film in their bags, and have special places where they store no only their negatives but also their photo albums, this photographers believe that they can literally live in both worlds, the digital and  and the "non-digital" since now days is easy to scan a film and transferred it a CD or DVD and have that film in a digital form too, filling this way what it can be a disadvantage in this digital era.
