Essential Tips
There are 2
types of 35 mm cameras: the lens
shutter and the single
lens reflex. The
lens shutter, or the so-called point and shoot cameras, has various
exposure controls and an automatic focus.� Its viewfinder is through
a window on the top of the camera.� The advantages of a lens-shutter
are that it is very light, small, cheaper ,and quiet to use.
The
single lens reflex, or SLR, has a unique viewfinder that allows you to
look though the picture taking lens.� You see exactly what is
photographed through a system of mirrors that reflect the image from
the lens into the camera's viewfinder.� This allows you to focus
and compose your photograph very accurately.� The SLR therefore
allows you to put on telephoto, wide-angle, and zoom lenses and see
through them.� This is not possible with a point and shoot 35 mm
camera.�
