Professional Photography

Buying a digital camera can be overwhelming but important if you want your memories to last a lifetime! Here is a very quick guide to help with this decision.

1. Determine what you need
    What type of photography will you be doing? (portraits, landscapes, macro, sports)
2. Megapixels are good and bad!
    The more megapixels often equates to more noise in the picture. If you’re only printing images at a normal size then anything over 5 megapixels will be fine. If you start blowing your images up you might want to pay the extra money for the upper end of what’s on the market today.
3. DSLR or Point and Shoot / Compact Camera?
    While Digital SLRs are getting more affordable they are not for everyone. They do however produce extremely professional photos! While a Compact point and shoot is great for a trip, many are even waterproof.
4. Optical Zoom is King
    Not all ‘zooms’ are created equal. Digital zooms simply enlarge the pixels which makes it look more pixelated. If you’re looking for a zoom lens make sure it’s an optical zoom (most modern cameras have them of at least 3x in length – ie they’ll make your subject three times as big – with an increasing array of ‘super zooms’ coming onto the market at up to 12x Optical Zoom).

I had some questions regarding a redundant network system and how to go about installing it so I emailed the sales team. Jordan O. went above and beyond getting a hold of the networking team and responding to me very quickly with a solution and information about the options I had. Quick and easy, will definitely buy from CompSource again. MBRISTER97
