Digital Single Lens Reflex (DSLR)

It is.

Firstly, this depends on your standard of 'best' and 'expensive'. If you're a professional photographer, you'll want cameras on the top of the range, which aren't cheap - at all. If you take photography as a serious hobby - like I - you'll want something like the Nikon D7100, Cannon EOS 70D etc. As for people who just use photography to pass time, then I recommend the Nikon D3100, Nikon D3200 or Canon EOS 100D.

Yes. The Pentax SLR lens K-mount will fit the Pentax Digital SLR [DSLR] and the Samsung DSLR. Two warnings: (1) you will lose the electronic linkages for some of the automatic functions; (2) the effective focal length of the lens will change. Most current DSLRs have an image sensor that is only about 2/3 the size of a 35mm film frame. Consequently, DSLRs will multiply the focal length of a traditional SLR lens by approximately 1.5: a 50mm SLR lens put on a DSLR will produce an image close to that of a 75mm lens; a 200mm telephoto lens will function as a 300mm lens. At the lower end of the focal lengths, a wide angle SLR lens, such as a 24mm, if attached to a DSLR, would lose its extreme wide angle advantage and function as a 36mm lens. In brief, long lenses will reach further out, but wide angle lenses will lose part of their ability to capture a full scene. Kodak and Canon have announced "full frame" DSLRs: digital cameras that have a sensor the same size as a standard 35mm frame. On such cameras, the SLR lens will retain its effective focal length regardless of whether it's used on an SLR or a DSLR. Neither Pentax nor Samsung has announced such plans for K-mount owners. In any event, the new full-frame Kodak and Canon full-frame DSLRs may be out of an amateur's reach, for they have an announced price of about $8000.

The Canon Eos lense mount, the "bayonet-style mount" is known for taking pictures through electrical contacts, in contrast to the conventional way of camera shots.

Nikon was founded 1917 as Nippon Kōgaku Kōgyō. It was renamed after it's camera range and is now owned by Mitsubushi.

No, not without an adapter. There are adapters avalable that lets you mount FD-lenses on newer Canon EOS cameras with EF-mount

A digital camera captures images through electronic sensors called "pixels", which each are sensitive to light. Put enough pixels together, stand back and it looks like a picture. Electronic images are then stored as data on electronic media such as disks or flash memory; a digital camera refers only to the way the image is captured and stored. On the contrary, a non-digital or film camera uses a roll of light-sensitive film contained within the camera to capture an image. "SLR" stands for "Single Lense Reflex", meaning that the operator looks OPTICALLY through the same lense as the camera when taking the picture. Many older cameras had a lens for the operator to look through and a separate lense for the camera. There was a problem with paralax, focus, lense length and image composition. SLR camras solved those problems by providing a system of mirrors, which allowed the user to focus and compose his image properly. When the operator of a SLR camra pushed the shutter release, the mirror moved out of the way and the shutter exposed the film. SLR cameras also allow the operator to change lenses allowing for long shots with telephoto lenses, wide angle shots, ultra-wide angle shots and even mounting to astronomy quality telescopes. The same method is used in some high-end digital cameras, often called DSLM, or Digital Single Lens Mirrorless cameras, because of their lack of a mirror.

it's not necessarily the camera that matters as much as the lens. If you are really into landscape photography you will need a wide angle lens.

Some of the lenses with the best reviews for the digital SLR include the Nikon 55-300mm AF-S and the Nikon 35mm Nikkor Lens. You can read more about and purchase these lenses from the Adorama website.

The Canon "D" line is always popular, from the 550D to 650D having:

-18 mega pixel sensor

Provides great picture quality.

also video quality below:

- Full HD (1920/1080) at 25/30fps

- 720p 60/30/25 fps

It really depends what file format you photograph in. If you shoot in RAW, you will use more space than shooting in JPEG. However, shooting in RAW allows more flexible editing in Photoshop.

The short answer is "Yes." The long answer is: All Canon EOS cameras use Canon EF (electro-focus) lenses. They can also use independently made lenses with EF type camera mounts. All Canon DSLR (digital single lens reflex) cameras can use all Canon EF (or independent manufacturer equivalent) lenses made for film or digital cameras. Most Canon DSLR's have an APS-C sensor that measures 22.2 x 14.8mm. (This is smaller than the 36 x 24mm image size on 35mm film.) In 2003, Canon introduced EF-S lenses that were optimized for the APS-C sensor size. The EF-S lenses will only fit on Canon 20D, 30D, 40D, and 50D cameras (as of 2008) and all Canon Digital Rebel cameras.

It depends on the brand of camera and the type of lens. Most Nikon film SLR lenses will work (in manual mode) on their digital SLR cameras. Many Canon lenses will work on new Canon SLR cameras, but you have to check compatability between the camera model and the type of lens. Sony purhcased the Minolta digital camera division, so all Sony Alpha DSLRs will use Minolta lenses.

A Nikon digital SLR camera can be bought online from a number of vendors. Major retailers such as Curry's, Argos and John Lewis all sell different models of the SLR Camera with prices above å£200.

It depends on how old. Canon EF lenses made since 1987 for Canon EOS bodies will fit the new Canon EOS digital bodies. The older FD lenses (before 1987) will not fit Canon EOS bodies, film or digital.

A single lens reflex (SLR) is a camera that uses the same set of lenses to both focus the image on the CCD (digital) and enable the photographer to frame the picture. That is to say, when you look through the viewfinder of a DSLR you are looking directly at the object through the main lens. You are not looking at the digitally re-created picture of the object or through some other lens that is off-center of the main lens.

A point-and-shoot camera will have some other mechanism for framing the picture.

Start by powering on the camera and ensuring you have enough light around.

Next, adjust the image mode to different modes such as Portrait, Landscape, Closeup or Sports depending on what you need.

Now, adjust the aperture to decide the amount of light to reach. The aperture settings are marked by the letter F and a series of numbers. The smaller the 'F' can be the wider the aperture is. The larger the "F" number is the more focus you will have.

Finally, check the shutter speed. In most cases, the shutter speed can change when the aperture is adjusted. Faster speeds give more precise and sharper action shots.

Finally, its time to capture the photo.

einfach auf alles verzichten was du nicht buahcrst also alk, kino, zigarreten und schon hast mindesten 100€ am monatsende mehr auf der hand.arbeiten und sparen junge und dann kauf dir das baby.aber beim objektiv kauf sehr fcberlegt denken also kein kitobjektiv und keine schlechten objektive ohne is usw.wenn du filmen willst kauf dir zuerst das 50mm 1.8 objektiv ffcr ca.100€ und dann das 17-50mm 2.8 von sigma ffcr 600€ gegeben falls spe4ter kannst du dir ein telezoom od fisheye kaufen.

The average price of a Nikon SLR digital camera is approximately $499.95. Of course you could find it for less if you comparison shop at your local retailers who specialize in camera equipment.

The AE-1 lenses have Canon's FD breech-lock lens mount. They are not compatible with Canon's later EF lens mount.

It may be possible to find an adapter, but performance would be lost, and the lens will not have the features of an EF lens. Best to save your money and get a dedicated lens, either Canon or Sigma.

As you probably have guessed, the term 'DSLR' is an abbreviation. Digital Single Lens Reflex is the full term. In most cameras, there is a mirror inside. That's basically what it means, though I do think this answer requires an edit.

Single-lens reflex cameras were first developed for large film sizes like l20 AND 4x5. tThe Famed firm of Graflex got the ball(or bellows) rolling. the Graflex(not the speed graphic ) introduced the graphic reflex camera in the early l900"s. The Germans and also the Bnritish picked up on the design. ealry slrs were bulky due to the hoysing for the hood and reflex mirror-some siad the old graflexes resmebled a scale model of a marine grain elevator when(Up0) withthe advent of 35MM filjm it was only amatter of time before a 35Mm Reflex became possible then popular. it is believed the Japanese Pentax with the pentaprism(five elements) solved theeye-level slr task )-there wee waist level s l r camera in 35 inthe thirties such as the German Exakta. The Pentax derives its name form penta meaing five (like Pentagon) and the pentaprism device whichy permiots eye-level SLR VIEWING. cAMNE OUT AFTER wAR 2.

This is a puzzler. The first commercially successful SLRs were probably the VP Exactas, which, by 1936 had evolved into the Kine Exacta, the world's first 35mm SLR.

The first instant return mirror was in the Gamma Duflex of 1943, but there was a war on and the system was unreliable, which is why the 1953 Asahiflex II (Pentax ancestor) is generally accepted as the first.

The 1948 Contax S (Made by the company that became Praktica) was the first SLR with a pentaprism, it also introduced the 42mm, 'Pentax screw.'

By the mid '50s, retrofocus design was perfected, enabling SLRs to accept wideangle lenses, and all of these innovations allowed the 35mm SLR to displace the rangefinder as the professionals' choice.

i bought one....doesn't appear compatible
