Thinking of buying a camera for you? Great! What is the firstborn thing you would look into the camera when the shop keeper demonstrates wide range of those? Of course, the introductory thing you would look in a camera is your budget when you compare your choice with other cameras.
If your budget is not so high, then you would go for a compact digital camera. But if the price is not a concern, then better you must go for a Digital SLR camera. Let me explain the divergence amongst these two types of cameras.
In spite of the price slashing of digital SLR cameras, they are still costlier than compact digital cameras. However, you may get fast performance and great picture results in digital SLR Cameras, which make them worth to compensate it is price. As soon as you press the button, it powers-up without any delay taking no lagging time and allows you to take the shot. In case of compact digital cameras, you may find the power-up time delayed for few seconds.
As far as size and weight is concerned, the digital SLR cameras come in double than the size of compact digital cameras. Additionally you would need to carry lenses separately. Digital compact cameras come in pocket size, which may fit into your pocket and the lenses comes in the body itself.
Although video capturing is a mutual feature of both the cameras, the digital SLR cameras are still one step ahead. In the former case, you may watch the captured movies and still photos on the television while setting the DSLR camera on HD video mode.
In digital SLR camera, you have to zoom manually as the zoom lenses are detachable from the camera. However, you may zoom the lens in and out as fast or as slow you want just by twisting a ring and modify the view. And, the compact digital camera comes with electronic zooming system. The lens may zoom in and out just by pressing a button. As far as zoom range is concerned, in DSLR, you need to buy either one zoom lens with 10 zoom power or buy two dissimilar zoom lens to cover wide angle and telephoto shots respectively. Whereas in compact digital camera you get two in one facility because of mega zoom lens. That is, you may take both type of shots with same lens with 10x or 12x zooming power.
Looking to the battery life of digital SLR camera, you will find it is battery long lasting owing to the fixed use of LCD screen which is applied just to view the images. Once the battery is charged, you may take around two thousand shots. In case of compact digital camera, the battery life is very short as it is one time battery charging may grant you to take with regards to five hundred shots.
DSLR could be the best choice if:
Scott Kelby, the man who changed the “digital darkroom” eternally with his groundbreaking, #1 bestselling, award-winning book The Photoshop Book for Digital Photographers, now tackles the most important side of digital photography–how to take pro-quality shots using the same tricks today’s top digital masters use (and it’s having little impact than you’d think).
This entire book is written with a brilliant premise, and here’s how Scott describes it: “If you and I were out on a shoot, and you asked me, ‘Hey, how do I get this flower to be in focus, but I want the background out of focus?’ I wouldn’t stand there and give you a lecture with regards to aperture, exposure, and depth of field. In real life, I’d just say, ‘Get out your telephoto lens, set your f/stop to f/2.8, focus on the flower, and fire away.’ You d say, ‘OK,’ and you’d get the shot. That’s what this book is all about. A book of you and I shooting, and I answer the questions, give you advice, and portion the mysteries I’ve learned just like I would with a friend, without all the technical explanations and without all the techno-photo-speak.”
This isn’t a book of theory—it isn’t full of mixing up jargon and elaborate concepts: this is a book of which button to push, which setting to use, when to use them, and closely two hundred of the most closely guarded photographic “tricks of the trade” to get you shooting dramatically better-looking, sharper, more colorful, more professional-looking photos with your digital camera each time you press the shutter button.
Here’s another thing that makes this book different: each page covers just one trick, just one single conception that makes your photography better. Every time you turn the page, you’ll learn another pro setting, another pro tool, another pro trick to transform your work from snapshots into gallery prints. There’s never been a book like it, and if you’re tired of taking shots that look “OK,” and if you’re tired of looking in photography magazines and thinking, “Why don’t my shots look like that?” then this is the book for you.

- You want to get rid of the hassle of slowness of your current compact camera.
- You want the facility of altering the lens of the camera according to the views and shots.
