Digital photography-A need of a common man

“Digital photography is one of the forms of photography which creates images of an object by using digital technology.”-Wikipedia

Digital photography for me is something more than photography. Digital photography guides me to the world of imaging where I can see myself as an image. It is the best option for a person like me who don’t have any knowledge about photography. All you need to do is to click on the power button, the lens automatically opens, just pass a smile and click on the button. In a minute or two, you get an image of yours which is something to cheer for.

Ancient form of photography talks about film photography where the device for taking photographs known as a ‘camera’ consisted of films which was needed to be developed in a dark room. So much of pain for developing films cannot be sustained by common people like us. We people don’t have time to have a detailed look at the snaps taken, how can we spend time on developing it. Digital photography again has an advantage that we don’t need to develop the films but to send it to the computer and view it.

Digital photography complements the title as it is surely a need for a common man. Resizing the images, making the images clear from the blurred ones, manipulating them and storing them can only be done in digital photography. We can create multiple copies of the images in some seconds only, so this makes digital photography far better than film photography.

Recent Survey
Digital Photography is preferred by the common Americans. This was recently recently stated by a reputed university of the USA. The survey or rather research was carried by some experienced researchers and the question was asked to 200-300 people.68 percent of the people thinks that digital photography is a better option while the rest 32 percent people which includes the fans of film photography thinks against the digital photography and blames it for destructing the art of film photography.

Recent innovation
The research in the field of digital photography is making it superior than the ancient forms. The measurements which have been taken are:-

1. 3D models will be created from collections of normal images. The scene can be viewed from novel viewpoints, but the part which is very difficult is to create a model.

2. Cameras with high dynamic range and displays are available. Cameras having power greater than 120 decibel are to be made.

3. Flutter shutter an accessory can remove the blurred images completely. It’s not available on the streets but can be found in some researcher’s laboratory.

4. With the help of controlled lights and sensors in computer, one can capture the reflection of an object. This is similar to artistry done in film photography. It is not in that much of use but it can be seen initiated in the museums.

5. Olympus DSLRs introduced the dust reduction systems so that the dust can be kept off from the image sensors are now common in use and can be seen in most of the brands of the digital cameras.

Film photographers can’t neglect it even
In recent times, the film photographers trying to make a camera that is hybrid of both the forms attach a ‘camera back’ of a digital camera. The same can be seen when a digital ‘camera back’ is attached to a medium format SLR cameras.
This proves that digital photography is something which cannot be neglected even by film photographers and thereby it makes it a position better in the industry of photography.

So now we can easily make a conclusion that though film photography is the first choice for an artistic person yet digital photography makes it way and becomes the first choice of the common men.
