When you are using a digital SLR camera, there are a lot more features that can be controlled by the photographer. This article is going to talk about several features that are available with an SLR digital camera.
The main feature that you can use is the ability to switch out lenses. Digital SLR cameras can use a variety of lenses, everything from a basic lens to a telephoto lens, wide angle lens, and other specialty lenses. You may want to own a few different lenses so that you have options available as you are taking photos. Or, if you are beginner photographer, it is probably a good idea to use a general lens in the beginning, and then once you have learned how to use that lens you can upgrade to a bigger, better lens.
A detached flash is a feature that many professional photographers like to use. There are many options to use a flash, and depending on the setting you might want to use the flash attached to the camera, or maybe at a different angle. Lighting is key to any good photo, so understanding how the flash works is very important to taking high quality photos.
There are different settings that can be used on the digital SLR camera to control how the picture is being recorded down. For example, you can choose the file size of the photo which will determine the quality of the pictures (small, medium, large, etc). Another feature is the fact that you can control the shutter speed of the camera in order to make adjustments for the environment and lighting that you are shooting in.
Overall, a digital SLR camera is a great investment. When you start using your new SLR camera, make sure to spend a little time getting to know the features of your individual camera. Don't get frustrated, it may take a little bit if time to get used to using it, but you will love the camera when you master all of the settings!
