Do you own a digital camera or regular film type camera?  |
|
Of course when digital cameras first came out I had to jump on it and get one. I think I'm on my third one since they first came out.
I think they are the best thing that has been invented since anything digital came out. At this point I can't imagine waiting for film to be developed even when it only takes an hour or two at a lot of places and you can get the film put on a cd and all of that. Being able to take a bunch of pictures and immediately see them on my pc is amazing to me!
When my daughter moved I found a box full of disposable cameras with only some of the film used and most of them were very old. It's going to cost her a lot of money getting them all developed.
Which do you own/prefer....digital camera or film camera?

1. diillu (4362) | 3 years ago | I own both of them. The film camera was the gift. So i have just kept it new. And I have digital camera which I bought it with my own money. Right now I own Sony Dsc-n2. This is really really a nice camera. I'm really satisfied with it. We can directly watch this on the tv as well. It feels great. And ya I do agree with you. Digital camera are the best invention.

ctrymuziklvr (4682) | 3 years ago | If I know anything at all about cameras it's that Nikon is one of the best. I could never get into lenses though.

pyewacket (11696) | 3 years ago | Hi there matte5..does the Nikon D70 accept the old "F" mount lenses...I still use an old Nikon fil camera myself and would eventually like a digital one as well
| |
|
|
matte5 (596) | 3 years ago | Yes they do and if you hawe a 35-155 on the old nikon and pot it on the digital you get a 70-310 instead but it works exact and great.

3. naty1941 (1781) | 3 years ago | I prefer a digital camera as I can crop the photos and fix them immediatelly. I only use a digital camera now. I have no patience or money to use the film type camera.

ctrymuziklvr (4682) | 3 years ago | Cropping and generally "fixing" the digital photos is something I also appreciate with the digital camera. Patience and money are also a big draw for me.

4. ladyluna (2495) | 3 years ago | Hello Ctrymuziklvr,
We own both. Hubby & I each have a digi-cam. We have a compact 35mm, and a professional 35mm. Of course, neither of us has used either of the 35mm cameras in years! There's simply no need. We can get better shots, more quickly, less expensively, and more conveniently with the digicams. Plus, I never was good at the F-stop, speed thing.
I'm totally on board with your 'best digi invention' perspective as well. I continue to be amazed at the quality of images that digicams can take.
For example: My avatar of the moon was taken with my little digicam. I have tried, in years past, to get a descent pic of the moon -- to no avail. The cost of the equipment necessary to get a descent lunar shot is ridiculously cost prohibitive. Yet, my little iddy-biddy digital camera captured the moon as well as any professional shot I've ever seen.
Yup, huge cudos to the digicam world!!!

ctrymuziklvr (4682) | 3 years ago | Your image of the moon is spectacular! I wouldn't have thought you got it with your own digicam I thought it was just from an image site. Some of those iddy-biddy cameras are awesome. I could never get the F-stop either so don't feel bad.

5. worldwise1 (6128) | 3 years ago | I'm totally in the dark when it comes to cameras, ctry. In fact, I have not owned one for several years. I used to buy them all the time and would just end up giving them to the grandkids, so I finally quit buying them. My daughter sends me photo shows all the time, and I really enjoy them. I have considered getting another camera, but I would like to think about it some more.

ctrymuziklvr (4682) | 3 years ago | Personally, I would be lost without a camera and I enjoy taking pictures of everything! My family knows that whenever we have a get together or go to any type of "time" that I will be taking pictures and sharing them with everyone.

6. cher913 (14067) | 3 years ago | we have 3 digicams, each one is better than the predessor. i would like to buy a really good one that can zoom in better than the ones that we own.
as for printing, both are kind of a pain and cost money. the only thing that i like about digi cams is that it is much easier to share photos on the net with friends and family.

ctrymuziklvr (4682) | 3 years ago | My goal is to one day own a video camera. My little digital has the capability but I don't know how to use it.

7. beutfulmama6701 (1134) | 3 years ago | well i own both .. i enjopy using them both and i dread using htem both at the same time. I love my regualr film camera when i do scrapbooking. it is easier and cheaper to run to the store and get a one hour develop. then it is to do digital prints. I disklike the film camera because you cannot se wehter or not you got the photo the wa you want it or if yu open the back the film is ruined and sometimes you just pay for a bunch of spotted pictures. But i love my digital camrea because i dont have to worry ever about running outta film or taking awrong picture i can just delete the ones that came out incorrectly. Its just so much easier and you can download the pictures just about anywhere! what i dont like about digital cameras is the fact that im conastlny paying for battiries! they die so quickly! and sometimes the memory card goofs up (on occasion) when i take it out to put it in my computer lsot and then all my pictures are gone becaue i have to constanly format my disc.. LOL they both have there good and theren abd points to them i guess.

ctrymuziklvr (4682) | 3 years ago | You named all great reasons for the digital. I especially appreciate not having to pay for pictures that came out bad.

8. zukepr (11799) | 3 years ago | I own both My 35 mm camera hasnt been used in a very long time. I too have film that has never been devolped and maybe someday I will get around to doing that LOL I prefer my digital camera I am so spoiled now hehe I like being able to see how the pic turned out right away so I know if I need to try to get another shot or change the angle or the lighting

|
ctrymuziklvr (4682) | 3 years ago | I'm willing to bet almost everyone who uses a digital camera has a good 35 mm hidden away some place in their homes!

9. cremechese51 (1362) | 3 years ago | Well this is horrifying, but right now all I have is my old Polaroid camera! I will get a digital one someday, I am way behind the times but I've had so many other priorities.
It'll be so great to get my first digital camera and share my photos with all my online friends. I hope I don't end up breaking it! lol

|
ctrymuziklvr (4682) | 3 years ago | I used to love the Polaroids because the pictures were developed on the spot. They were very expensive to use though. I'm sure when you get a digital you won't break it.

10. raychill (3493) | 3 years ago | I have a digital camera. It's about 7 years old. I've kind of always hated it but I never feel like buying a new one. I'm usually pretty behind the times on electronics.
I like digital better than regular, cause it's cheaper in the long run. But I'd like to have a regular camera again!

ctrymuziklvr (4682) | 3 years ago | My camera is about 4 years old too and I've never really been fond of it...lol. I actually won it online at the Fujifilm site. It does the job but I'm looking for a new one now.

|
|
raychill (3493) | 3 years ago | At least your camera was free! I would love it simply because it's free. I paid $400 something for mine. So I "have" to like it!
