By James Helmering


Today, digital photography is preferred not just in the business industry but also for private use. For every one of those who have shifted from film cameras, it's important that you know the varied terms related to it.

The 1st part of the digital photography tutorial will focus on the basic parts and terms you have to know before handling a digital camera. Below are the common terms utilized in digital photography:

1. Pixel- means the tiniest part of the digital photo. A photo image is composed of combined millions of pixels which should help you when doing any portrait editing.

2. Resolution- the over all amount of pixels in a photo. Increasing the resolution would make the image become sharper. Therefore more pixels are needed to achieve a better photo image quality.

3. Mega pixel- a photo made up of three to four mega pixels will have a better quality than a photo with only one megapixel.

4. Dots Per In. (DPI) - this term is used to describe quality of the PC monitor and printer. Specifically, laser printers have more dpi resolution than monitors. Hence, higher the dpi resolution means better quality.

5. JPEG (joint photographic experts group) - it corresponds to the format for saving images in the digicam.

6. Memory Card- here is where the digital files are stored. Memory sticks are comprised of different sizes and capacity. A memory card with higher storage facility would be more acceptable to purchase.

7. LCD (liquid crystal display) - virtually all digicams have this specification. The point of LCD is for the photographer to be in a position to view the scene first before capturing the photo.

Now you understand the aspects of photography the following step is to be told how to use one from experience.
