What does a camera look like?

Digital Cameras look almost like Film Cameras, only Digital Cameras are more "Computerized" and don't use film. Digital Cameras have an Addition from Aperture, Shutter Speed, and ISO, they have Mega Pixels which tell you what quality the photos come out as. Lower MP say 1.2MP is mostly used in cheaper Digital Cameras or web cameras, more expensive cameras can go up to 12.5MP or more, Digital Cameras also have an LCD Display so you can view photos instantly. The difference between Film and Digital is that with film once you take a photo its permanent on the film, Digital Cameras enable you to reuse the Memory card since you are able to delete photos.

How Did The Camera Used To Work?

Film cameras used to focus light on a light sensitive surface called film which was then put in a solution called developer that caused the image to appear. If the picture was to be printed the image on the film was negative, meaning the dark areas were light and the light areas dark. If it was to be projected onto a screen the images were positive -- like they appear to your eye. Digital cameras focus the light on light sensitive electronic sensors, then the computer in the camera interprets the information from these sensors and converts it into colors. Otherwise film cameras and digital cameras work about the same way.


What is Digital medium format camera?

Medium format cameras are generally used by professional photographers, and take film in the 2-1/4 x 3-1/4 inch or 6mm X 7mm formats. A medium format digital camera would have a digital sensor of a size that could use the lenses from cameras designed for those film sizes. Some medium-format cameras like the Hasselblad have removable backs that can be replaced with a digital back that turns the film camera into a digital. These cameras and film backs typically have sensors from 20 Megapixels to about 50. Needless to say, both the cameras and lenses are wildly expensive. Equally needless to mention, they give incredible results, yielding images that can be enlarged to billboard size.
