Nikon has finally introduced its much awaited line of mirrorless cameras … compact digital cameras with interchangeable lenses. The Nikon 1 series includes the more upscale model V1 and this introductory level model the J1.
The PowerShot ELPH 300 HS digital camera boasts a slim profile as well as good looks. And appearance isn’t the only thing this slick little device offers … it will also deliver brilliant still images, ultra-detailed 1080p Full HD video, serious functionality, and a wealth of effects and automatic settings.
You might be surprised when you learn just how much is packed into such a slim point-and-shoot. Let your imagination run wild, and let Canon’s HS SYSTEM, a 24mm lens, 5x Optical Zoom, and 12.1 Megapixels help you snap great photos everywhere.
An image sensor is the digital equivalent to film in a conventional camera.
Unlike film, however, the image sensor is built into the digital camera and cannot be changed for different situations.
The most common sensors used today in digital cameras are the CCD (Charged Couple Device) and the CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor).
In this photography lecture we’ll discuss camera shutter speeds. The shutter speed is one of the controls that determines the exact amount of exposure your film or image sensor receives.
Shutter speed controls the time of an exposure by controlling exactly how long the aperture remains open. The shutter speed also has other effects on your pictures which will be covered as well.
The following is a list of the full shutter speeds, starting with 1 second:
1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/15, 1/30, 1/60, 1/125, 1/250, 1/500, 1/1000, etc.
Each of the above shutter speeds is 1/2 the amount of time as the previous speed.
