Some systems offer program modes designed for specific types of photography, such as landscape, portraits or action. These scene-specific exposure modes not only bias shutter speed and aperture, but also impact contrast, noise reduction and depth of field. Features such as wireless control of flash and downloading of files from camera to computer are ways that are increasing versatility and creating unique niches in this competitive market. It all comes down to what kind of photograph you want to create and discovering which of these tools will do the job for you. With a wide range of choices, the right camera is closer than you might think. |
