Analog photography From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article includes a list of references, but its sources remain unclear because it has insufficient inline citations. Please help to improvethis article by introducing more precise citations. (November 2009)

Analog Photographic film - 1980s-1990s years

Analog photography is a commonly used term for photography that uses a progressively changing recording medium, which may be either chemical process based (e.g.,photographic film or plate) or electronic (e.g., vidicon or CCD sensor). Through common use this term has come to mean anything that is "not digital" despite some amount of controversy that the use of film isn't a true "analog" process.[1][2]

In a film camera that uses the gelatin-silver process, light falling upon photographic emulsions containing silver halides is recorded as a latent image. The latent image is subjected to photographic processing, which makes it visible and insensitive to light.

In a video camera or digital still camera, the signal is captured with a video camera tube orcharge coupled device sensor, which sends the picture to be processed by the camera's electronics. The signal can be transmitted or recorded on a storage device for later playback.

Now your image has the properties of an icon and can be saved to an icon by File/Save As/ and select the icon type.

Is there an easy-to-use image viewer software?

What version corel draw works with vista 64?

Almost defiantly not. For one thing, CorelDRAW 11 is a 32 bit application, and for another it is from 2002 -- years before Vista was released. You can ask Corel support to be sure, or you can buy the newest version which will probably work, or you can stick with XP and be safe.

You can also look into Inkscape, which is very similar to CorelDRAW except it is free so there is no risk: http://www.inkscape.org/download/?lang=en
