A Short Introduction to Photography and Some Things to Consider When Purchasing a Digital Camera
Photography is the art of taking photographs of objects or people, which are then processed into an image by placing special chemicals onto photosensitive paper resulting in a photograph or an image to be captured on paper.
Some people enjoy photography as a hobby while others make their living from it. Many photographers use both traditional film cameras and digital cameras and some still tend to process their own images. What they like to photograph is a matter of individual interest since some people enjoy taking pictures of nature, while others prefer portraits of people, pets, still life and so on.
The Camera Is The Most Important Consideration
Among the best ultra zoom cameras in the market are the Panasonic Lumix cameras. Equipped with a superb lens, they take high quality pictures with accurate colors and exposure. There is no problem with purple fringing, (AKA ghosting), like other ultra zoom cameras.
Ah yes, and the perfect accessory for any camera is a photo light box, which is a controlled lighting environment. With their uniform lighting environments, anyone can come up with professional looking color accurate photos without shadows to upload on websites, online auctions or catalogs.
Many photo opportunities only last for seconds, if your digital camera is too busy writing the last shot you took to the memory card you might miss the next shot. So make sure the camera you choose has a fast recovery time.
What If You Delete A File
And what if you delete an image file by mistake from your digital camera's flash card? Flash file recovery can recover any previously deleted image file. This is an application that every photographer should be aware of. It can also salvage pictures from damaged or corrupted flash drives (including camera's built-in memory) and memory sticks. While camera or storage media failure is a rather rare event, compact flash memory cards (CF for short) are slim, lightweight easy to change out when full.
Great photos need great frames
Many people frame pictures and use them as a great gift idea. We get different types and styles in picture frame moldings.
Before cutting any stock, photo matting should be done because it helps you get an estimate about the size of the completed frame. Most photography or frame shops sell pre-cut photo matting, but you can save money using your own mat cutting system. This is particularly relevant when you are making frames for a lot of family and friends on a regular basis.
Medical Photography
Photographic recording plays an important role in medicine, especially photographic documentation for endoscopy. Photographic or video recording of diagnostic procedures is better than memory or drawing. Moreover, it is a legal safeguard as well as material for research and teaching.
Digital camera prices have fallen so much in the last couple years pretty much anyone can now get into photography. One of the latest trends has been the merging of cell phones and digital cameras, the size of image is still pretty small but technology is advancing and within a couple years I think we may be quite surprised at what our little phones will be capable of.

Product Description
The Nikon D90 camera can be overwhelming for new owners regardless of their experience.
With 44 custom settings, pages of menu options, and configurable buttons on the outside of the camera, new owners may struggle to understand which controls can improve their photography.
In this 107 minute DVD, Blue Crane Digital distills many of the important settings and provides real world examples and exercises for D90 owners. In addition, the presentation charts the path of your image from the camera, through post processing to a final print or being viewed on the web.
This DVD is broken down into four sections:
1) explanations of many custom settings and controls with real world examples and exercises
2) acquiring and maintaining the colors you see when you take the photo, including an introduction to color management and dealing with sub-optimal lighting sources
3) an overview, with examples of using Commander Mode and wireless remote speedlights
4) a short discussion of how to store and organize your settings, both in the camera and in your ritual as you prepare to shoot
This DVD assumes the viewer has a good overall understanding of digital photography and the basic controls on their camera.
The contents of this presentation are a logical extension of the Blue Crane Digital title: Introduction to the Nikon D90 Volume 1:Basic Controls. It is intended for intermediate to semi-advanced users.

Sony Digital Betacam Introduction
Here is a video my dad worked on in the early 90's for Sony and Earthquake Productions. This video showcases the then state-of-the-art DVW-700 Digital Betacam. My dad (the guy with the mustache) is the camera operator / steadicam guy. This video was shot over a 7 day period in the beautiful eastern region of Japan. I hope you guys can enjoy this blast from the past. PS: I will have another video up my dad worked on in the late 90's that features the XDCAM.
