How do you tell that a camera is an SLR?
SLR stand for Single Lens Reflex. IN layman terms it means that there is a mirror between the lans and the film that reflects the image back up to the veiwfinder. SLRs generally have removable lenses. If you take the lens off you will be able to see the mirror. Another clue as to whether it is an SLR is that the veiwfinder lines up with the center of the lens.
What is refraction in photography?
In Photography, refraction has the same rules as in physics. Well, photography is all about engineering and physics. Refraction encompasses the situation where light goes through a semi transparent object and the photons are slightly drifted from its normal course because the surface they hit separates them.

What is the legal age for nude photography in Australia?
It all depends on the nature of the image, if it's a shot of a naked child running the sprinkler, or a bath-time photo, it is typically legal to do so. as long as the photos are not of children engaged in sex acts, or posed in a sexual manner, you should be fine, even if genitalia is visible.
If you want to see an image that would be illegal in most states, look up "virgin killer" by "the scorpions" for the original cover, and compare it to the cover of "never mind" by "Nirvana", and you should get a real good sense of what type of photo would be legal and illegal.
even something you think that looks innocent, like two naked toddlers hugging each other, regardless of setting, could be deemed as a sex act in some or most jurisdictions.

Who invented the camera Johann Zahn or George Eastman?
The first camera would have been the camera obscura. The camera obscura has been known to scholars since the time of Mozi (around 480 BCE) and Aristotle (around 350 BCE). A camera obscura is a room or a box with a hole in one side through which light passes, causing an inverted image to be projected onto the a wall of the room or back of the box.
In 1039 AD an Arabian scholar, Alhazen, wrote the first clear description and analysis of the device. In 1550 a lens was fitted to into the hole of a camera obscura. Over the years following various items were added such as a diaphragm to sharpen up the image and a mirror was added to make the images upright. Starting in about 1676 a portable camera was available. It was in the 1800s that the first practical camera came about. in 1826 Frenchman Nicephore Niepce used a camera obscura for photography for the first time. 1856 saw the first camera that took small images of live subjects. George Eastman, an American, produced the first box 'brownie' hand held camera bought by the general public.

It was only in 1855 that you could get a photo taken and printed properly, but this doesn't mean that you could not take a photograph earlier. In 1817 a gentleman inventor named Nicéphore Niépce made a small and primitive camera from which he succeeded in taking a partial photo of low quality. This was the birth of the camera as we know it.
Cameras were actually developed over time rather than having been invented by just one person. Nicephore Niepce used what is known as a bitumen to create the first actual photograph in 1825. The first portable camera was built by Louis Daguerre in 1837. The first camera that was practical for everyday use was invented by George Eastman in 1888.
How does the film relate to the shutter speed?
The slower the film -- that is, the lower the ISO rating -- the longer the shutter must stay open at a particular aperture (F-stop). In low light with slow film, the shutter may have to stay open too long for the camera to be hand-held without noticeable camera shake, even with cameras with optical image stabilization.
How do you upload pictures from your camera chip to your PC?
Most digital cameras will have a Micro-B USB slot, to which they can be connected to a PC using an appropriate USB cable. The PC will then be able to open the camera's memory card as if it were a removable storage medium, you can copy the pictures to your hard drive.

Cameras record images. Images that we see with our eyes are fleeting - one moment they are there, the next moment they are gone. These same images can be recorded and stored using the now commonly available technology, cameras.

What is pictorial photography?
Pictorial photography was a movement, peaking in the early part of the 20th Century, which tried to emulate painting and etching. Many pictorialists used soft focus, filters, Vaseline on the lens, various darkroom manipulations and processes to get a "painterly" look. Alfred Stieglitz (1864 - 1946) is a good general representative of the pictorialists. The movement is by no means dead, and many photographers working today still try to get a look that is sometimes anything but "photographic" in the sense of, say, Ansel Adams and the f/64 school, which emphasized very "straight" photography with crisp focus and infinite detail.
How do you transfer some of my photos from my digital camera to a computer?
The simplest way if your camera contains a memory card is to buy a card reader. These cost a few pounds or dollars and simply plug into your USB port. If you have XP or Vista after plugging your memory card into a reader and plugging the reader into the USB port, a window pops up giving you options. Click on 'open window to view files' and open another window where you would like your picture to go. Then simply drag the picture across from your 'card' window into your destination window.
