December 29, 2006, Newsletter Issue #45: Learning is a Snap

Tip of the Week

Open the box, leaf through the instruction manual, experiment with the controls and you'll soon figure out that digital cameras are pretty user-friendly. Plus, aside from what's included, there are also many books on digital photography for beginners out there. However, when learning to master both cameras, digital probably holds the slight edge.

When you shoot digitally there's always room for error. Screw up a picture? Just delete and shoot again—as many times as you want. Plus, since you can see the pictures right away, you can also correct your mistakes just as fast. Film is permanent. Once you shoot a picture there's no going back. You also don't get to analyze what you did until after you've paid to process the film. So, although film cameras might cost less, digital cameras offer less costly mistakes.
