a) The camera film, now also known as analog cameras by some.
format film
Before we go into the types of film cameras is useful to know in advance a variety of formats / film size.
A. APS, Advanced Photography System. Small format with a size of 16x24mm film, packaged in a cartridge. Although the format is relatively new, but unpopular. Stores that sell this type of film hard to find in Indonesia
2. 135 format. Also known as 35mm film. 24x36mm in size, packaged in a cartridge containing 20 or 36 frames. This format is the most popular formats, many of us encounter in our
3. medium format
4. Large format
Film types
A. Film B / W, black and white negative film
2. Color negative film. The most popular, we often use
3. Positive film, also called a slide. More expensive and prone to overexposure. Yet the colors produced better because it can capture a wider range of contrast
The types of camera film
A. Pocket / compact. Pocket camera. Popular for the layman, simple and easy to operate. Using 35mm film format
2. Rangefinder. Search camera distance. Small, at first glance similar to a pocket camera. The difference is, this camera has fokusing mechanism (hence called a rangefinder). Generally uses 35mm film format
3. SLR, Single Lens Reflex. Single lens reflex camera. Popular with professionals, amateurs and hobbyists. Generally have a lens that can be replaced. Using 35mm film format. Also called system camera
4. TLR, Twin Lens Reflex. Double lens reflex cameras. Typically use medium format
5. Viewfinder. Typically use medium format
The camera manual and automatic cameras. The latest SLR cameras are already equipped with autofocus and autoexposure systems but can still be operated manually.
b) Digital Camera
Using a digital sensor instead of film
A. Consumer. Pocket cameras, cheap, easy to use. The lens can not be replaced. Most just have a full-automatic mode. Just point and shoot. Some, like the Canon A series, has a manual mode.
2. Prosumer. SLR-like camera, moderate prices. The lens can not be replaced. Shooting manual and auto mode
3. DSLR. digital SLR
Camera lens
eye of the camera, generally determines the quality of images produced lenses have two important properties, namely the focal length and maximum aperture.
Field of View (FOV)each lens has a wide FOV depends on the length and extent fokalnya film / sensor is used.
Field of View Cropoften mistakenly called the focal length multiplier. Almost all digital cameras have smaller sensor size than 35mm film, then the digital camera field of view is smaller than on a 35mm camera. For example a 50 mm lens on a Nikon D70 has the same FOV with a 75mm lens on a 35mm film camera (1.5x FOV crop factor)
Types of Lensesa. based on the prime-varioA. Fixed focal / Prime, has a fixed focal length, eg 35mm f/3.5 Fujinon has a focal length of 35 mm. Prime lens is less flexible, but the quality is higher than the zoom lens at the same price2. Zoom / Vario, has a focal length that can be changed, such as Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 has a focal length that can be changed from 18 mm to 55 mm. Flexible due to an adjustable length fokalnya
b. based on focal lengthA. Wide, wide lens with FOV, focal length 35 mm or less. Typically used to photograph the scenery and buildings2. Normal, about 50 mm focal length. Lens is versatile, fast and cheap3. Telephoto lens with a narrow FOV, focal length of 70mm or more. To shoot from a distance
c. based on the maximum apertureA. Fast, has a wide maximum aperture2. Slow, has a narrow maximum aperture
d. special lensesA. Macro lenses, used to shoot from close range2. Tilt and Shift lens, can be bent
Terms lens wide / telephoto (focal length based) above apply to 35mm film camera. Nikkor 50 mm lens becomes a normal lens on a 35mm film camera, but a telephoto lens when used on Nikon D70 digital camera. On the Nikon D70 Nikkor 50 mm FOV FOV equivalent to 75 mm lens on a 35mm film camera
Other auxiliary equipment- Tripod, is required for shooting at a slow pace. At slower speeds, avoiding camera shake when held by hand (handheld). In general, the minimum speed is 1/focal handhel.Carry a tripod when hunting can be a hassle. For the purposes of hunting is usually brought on a tripod is a tripod that is lightweight and small.- Monopod, like a tripod, one leg. Easier to carry. Can only eliminate vertical shake only.- Flash / flash / flash, for menerangai objects in dark conditions- Filter, to filter the incoming light. There are many kinds:UV, UV light filter to prevent the foto2 Hazy landscape, often used to protect the lens from dust.PL / CPL (Polarizer / Circular Polarizar) to reduce the shadows on a non-metallic surfaces. It could be to increase the contrast of the sky
