Types Of Camera Lenses

without comments

When you are choosing a camera there are a few things that you have to consider in order to get the best out of it, the lens that comes with it is one of them. After all the quality of the picture you are going to take is directly influenced by the quality of your camera lens. After all, this is what the camera uses to “see” what it is going to capture.

Normal Lens

A normal lens is one that fits a camera and takes a standard photograph. It does not vary in how close up it can take a picture. They do however vary in quality, generally a more expensive camera will have a better lens. You can however get a good picture with a less expensive lens by learning about lighting, and using some experimentation, in other words, getting to know your camera.

Zoom

Your camera will probably have a zoom capability too, and this will give you an idea of how well you will be able to take a picture of something in the distance. The greater the zoom, the more detailed a shot you can get. An example would be the Finepix L55, this has a 3 X zoom, so can zoom in by this amount, these lenses are sometimes called a telescopic lens

 

It is also worth finding out, when you are buying a camera if it is possible to get different lenses to fit your camera. Some cameras come with a lens that can be upgraded for either something better, or one that has a different function, such as a wide angle lens.

Fujifilm FinePix L55 Digital Camera – Lots Of Fun Colours

without comments

There is no end of choice of colours with the Fujifilm FinePix L55 Digital Camera, it is available in black, red, pink, white, purple and blue. But that is not all there is to this entry level camera, indeed it is packed with features that you would only expect to find on a more expensive camera. This makes it great value for money, and is a great idea for a gift at Christmas to that special person you are not sure what to buy.

So what do you get for your money?

Well to start with it has a generous 2.4inch LCD screen, couple this with it’s 3x optical zoom then you know you will be able to take some great pictures, exactly as you want. It even has a panoramic shooting mode to assist you in those sometimes hard to get right shots. This will mean you will end up with a nice smooth panoramic photo.

Your focus is also optimised with the scene recognition auto function, yes it will set everything up for you by reading what is the optimal focus and exposure. Now I don’t know about you, but I have no idea what all these settings are on a digital camera, I just want to point and click.

That is what you will get with this camera, if that is what you want and need, you can make it as easy or as complicated as you like. I mean it can even warn you if someone has blinked while you were taking the photo in case you want to go and retake it while you have the opportunity. Personally I always blink when having my picture taken, and I am sure that I am not the only one.

With a lithium ion battery that you can recharge you will have countless hours of fun with this slim camera, easy to fit in your pocket, or handbag. A Fujifilm FinePix L55 Digital Camera is great value, and lots of fun.
