Digital SLR Cameras

I switched to digital about 8 months ago. I'll never go back. I can give you a few advantages, as well. First, long term cost. Film and processing add up. With a digital, I purchase one large memory card and I'm done. I take all the pictures I want, no more being selective in my shots, download them to the computer and I'm ready to shoot some more. I can get roughly 300, high quality 6 MP JPGs on one 1 GB card. That's a lot of film. Second, versatility. Imagine you're shooting a wedding with both indoor and outdoor settings. What if you take 12 photos outdoors, then have to switch to indoors. With a digital, you just change the ISO. With film, you have to change films. I can also switch between any source of lighting by simply switching my white balance. No different films, no filters. Third, control. With film, most photographers use a lab for their processing. With digital, I'm the lab, with the help of Photoshop, of course. I look at my photos and decide what look I was going for, not some one who wasn't there. Forth, immediate feedback. I don't have to wait for a lab to process my film before I know if the lighting or pose was right. I can see immediately. And, with a histogram, I can even be sure of the exposure by looking at the light distribution across the light spectrum. I've gotten prints back and wished I'd known about the strobe that quit working. Now I know immediately. I hope these have helped. Don't get me wrong, I love film and film has been great for photography for a really long time. I just think digital's time has arrived.
