The numeric doesn't claim to replace the traditional photo, any speech this way is unsuitable for the current technology and is only of the marketing strategy. There's of the place for both who can help themselves. Let's see which advantages and inconveniences present the digital devices.
No risk of falling out of order of film, thus more need "to run" up to the closest retailer.
On the contrary, more need to say himself " it's necessary to finish the film to be able to discover its pictures".
No wait for the result, even if labs dévellopent in the 1 hour, more need to run. It's available following.
More failed photos: that doesn't please you! You know it in succession, more expenses of dévellopement for missed photos.
In spite of the prowills made with batteries, those this empty in a phenomenal speed, especially if you use frequently the screen LCD to aim and see your photos. It's to my opinion the most considerable inconvenience of the digital device.
And please, always foresee a set of batteries of change.
In the fact how much costs a film and how many photos keep you in your albums?
The prowills were enormous in this domain, but it remains still expensive for the person who goes on holiday for example. Where to store photos when the card is full and when one's no computer under the hand?
New solutions appear, but they remain still not enough expensive.
Autonomous hard disk, 10 Go of photos (SmartMédia, Compact Flash and memory stick) from 762 Euros
Not need to think of the place to arrange photos, albums and negative, please, think that you can put up to 650 photos on a CD-ROM.
High
speed photos (squall)
Due
to the current technology (buffer, software interns), it is impossible,
unless making of the logo or lower the resolution in 640 x 480 to make
of the recording in squall deserving of this name. The delay between two
photos is usually from 4 till 5 seconds in "printable" resolution.
Big prowills were however made on the last devices (by increasing buffer).
The
various "photographic" aspects
The
regulation of the depth of field, in spite of manual options of regulation
of diaphragm, it's not still very successful.
The aplats of the same colour isn't returned still indeed.
Difficulty with the "flesh-coloured" colours (portraits).
Impossibility to use the screen LCD in winter in the mountain.
Seed
Money
Even
if the prices fell, the only device isn't any more enough, it's necessary
to envisage the purchase of a reader of card, of supplementary batteries
and sometimes a successful software of retouch. If you print a lot, it'll
be necessary to think of a good quality printer (photo) which it even
led by the costs (special paper, cartridges photo).
It's thus necessary to be capable of mastering totally the digital chain
and the investment remains consequent for a private individual.
You want to keep your photos without printing them, it's possible.
Please, make so many reprintings as you want without fear to lose the negative or to see them déteriorer in the time, no chemical reaction, a digital picture isn't afraid of the time, please, reprint a photo in 20 years, it won't have moved.
Your increases when you want it.
With the software of retouch, many things are possible, create of the vaguenesses, superimposing, please, remove the red eyes, kill or move persons.
Regulations of contrast, luminosity can make of a missed picture an "average" picture.
The only limit is your imagination.
Reliability
The
risks of breakdowns are small, because there is a few of moving pieces
(no engine which advances the film).
No particular maintenance.
Ergonomic
No
competence , it's a camera, anything more, and some cameras skip into
a pocket of jacket !
