| [title] Selecting a Camera | |
| - | [* black] "Point and Shoot" Digital Cameras |
| - | [* black] Jam packed with many features, these cameras are the perfect option for the at-home guide maker. What these cameras typically lack are more advanced features such as manual focus, exchangeable lenses, and some color and light balancing abilities. |
| - | [* black] Single Lens Reflex Cameras, or SLRs |
| - | [* black] These cameras are for the more advanced users and professional photographers and guide makers. They are much more expensive than their "Point and Shoot" counterparts, but also add far more advanced features to obtain the ideal picture. This can be particularly handy if no photo editing software is available. |
| + | [* black] The most important component for taking pictures is, of course, the camera. It is highly recommended that you use a digital single lens reflex (DSLR) camera to take professional quality guide images. |
| + | [* black] When it comes to cameras, megapixels aren't nearly as important as manufacturers want you to believe they are. DSLRs have significantly larger image sensors than point-and-shoot cameras, which allows them to capture more light and yield larger, higher resolution images. Color reproduction and image sharpness also tend to be much better when using a DSLR. |
