Go Mad With Your Digital Camera
January 31st, 2009 by admin
Years ago, when I was using an old fashioned film camera, I was always aware that film cost money and so did the subsequent development of said film. Of course, it was perfectly normal to find that on a reel of film of, say, 32 exposures, you might have one or two that didn’t come out very well - overexposed, underexposed whatever.
So you did tend to think about what you were taking photos of and do your best to get good shots. Nothing wrong with that of course but thinking back over the years I wonder how many memories I didn’t manage to capture.
Now that we have digital cameras a lot of the issues above aren’t really an issue. There’s no film to pay for and no development fees. Take as many photos as you like and either delete the ones that don’t turn out to your satisfaction, or just store them on a dirt cheap memory card. Go mad.
