Take Your Best Shot!
A digital camera has become an essential tool for everyone in this industry. This month we will discuss the art of taking great photographs. While there are times you may want to hire a professional photographer, the majority of the time you take your own photographs. Therefore, it is necessary that you attain the skills, knowledge and tools that will produce professional results.
First, let's discuss digital cameras. There are many choices when it comes to choosing a digital camera. I don't necessarily have a favorite brand; what matters to me most is how it feels in my hand and the number of megapixels. I want 4 megapixels or higher, I prefer a 5 megapixel. I also like the added benefit of taking movie clips; you might as well take full advantage of this business purchase. If you are trying to achieve excellent photography for your portfolio consider purchasing a camera that has the ability of adding an external flash. You can add an external flash to any camera that has a hot-shoe; check the owner's manual for your camera for the flash model number that will work with your camera. A normal flash on a camera will not always be enough light to fill large rooms which results in a dark photograph.
For the very serious photographers you can step up to the SLR digital cameras but get ready to pay the price. SLR cameras offer the advantage of detachable lens like many 35mm cameras. When purchasing a SLR camera you purchase the camera body and the lens separately. The advantage for our industry is the option of purchasing a good wide-angle lens when room shots are desired.
