What is the difference between an SLR and a digital SLR camera?
I'm trying to buy a camera and do not know what the difference is between them?
SLR – Single Lens reflex. The camera has a system of mirrors and prisms to show exactly what is being seen through of the lens. At the time of taking the photo, the mirror moves out of the way, the shutter opens and the picture is taken. Digital SLR is an "SLR that records digital photos using a sensor instead of film. Rest everything is like a movie based on conventional 35mm SLR.

I have a Canon EOS Rebel XT digital SLR and am having trouble with the shutter. Or usually fire shutter or leads over time when it finally does. I have to hold the button down for a long time, and the pictures look like they are going light blue / wash. Please help, I'm not sure if the shot needs to be surviced or not, I'm not sure how many pictures I have taken over the past four years. Here I took a picture as you can see the color is off and is made automatically on a href = "http://www.flickr.com/photos/25728815 @ N03/2589801731 / "Title =" Jake and his family for rainbowbright777, on Flickr ">
Its shutter may well be out … especially if the camera is four years and to use a considerably. There is never a promise how long it will last a shutter or exactly when to leave … but all the blinds have a life. The XT, I was told by Canon, should be good for an average 65,000 clicks …. Maybe it's time for a checkup. Call USA Canon service center can help you decide if the shutter or other problem.

Kenny Lattimore hit the R&B scene in 1996 with a self-titled debut that showcased his considerable vocal talent and songwriting skills.

How do you translate in mm with optical zoom? Like the 40-150 mm lens or a 300mm lens?
I was looking at the Olympus E500 DSLR, but I can not figure out how mm translates into an optical zoom. I want something with at least 10 lenses. I think you can go with the Olympus SP-550 UZ, because it is a video of 18 Optical and takes it. I do not think a DSLR will do that. And thanks for looking / answering my question.
I'm not sure you really know what is asking. You say you're looking for a "10 x zoom. A 18-200mm lens is a 11x zoom. A 200-400mm lens is a 2x zoom. A target of 300 mm fixed focal length no zoom. But you see they are very different lenses for different purposes. However, if one of their requirements is being able to record video, you're right – one not designed SLR to do that. So your question about how to translate the focal lengths in millimeters zoom percentages set by all-in-one camera is debatable. The Olympus SP-550-UZ is a good choice. is Macworld Editor's Choice is for all-in-one designs. – Disclosure: I own lens www.lenslenders.com rent in Canada.

If you continue your photo lifestyle for any length of time, you will eventually graduate from your digital point and shoot camera, and be ready for an SLR. This will lead you to the daunting task of choosing a camera.
There are many models and styles to choose from and you will have to do the research and look into choosing a camera that suits your particular needs and budget, but I heard a very easy to understand explanation yesterday that may help point you in the right direction.
There are many cameras to choose from and they are all adequate. Some we will not discuss today are excellent choices, but many people end up narrowing their choice to the Canon Rebel, the Canon EOS 40D, or one of the better Nikon cameras.
The Canon Rebel comes in a 10.1 or 12.2 megapixel version, and has a relatively low list price of $600 to $800. It’s designed as a first SLR for people who are just stepping up from a pocket camera, and don’t want to spend time learning how to use it. The purpose was to create a camera with the power of an SLR, an affordable price point, and the menu driven ease of use of a pocket camera. The cost has been driven down by using less expensive materials, so the Canon Rebel is not as sturdy as a full SLR, but is much smaller and lighter for ease of use. If your purpose for choosing and SLR is to take better pictures of family and vacations, but you don’t plan to make your photo lifestyle a serious hobby, the Canon Rebel is the camera of choice for you. Some great features are a self cleaning dust detecting interior, and an anti movement feature that allows you to be all shaky, and still take clear shots.
If you want to get a bit more serious about photography, you may be a prime candidate for the Canon EOS 40D. Yes, I know the 50D is the newest model of the EOS, and has a whopping 15.1 megapixels, but honestly, unless you’re planning to create and sell large poster sized prints, I can’t imagine needing, or wanting to store a file that large for each photo you take. The Canon EOS 40D is a more modest 10.1 megapixel camera for a list price of $1099. That’s without a lens, and is $400 less than the 50D. For most people, unless you achieve semi-professional status, the Canon EOS 40D will be all the camera you need for a lifetime of pursuing the photo lifestyle. It will take some time to learn to use all the features, but being a top of the line Canon, will last until you are too old to have an interest in photography, or until you dump it into the lake, whichever comes first.
Most of the professional or semi-professional photographers I know here in Japan are using a Nikon. If you’re choosing a camera for a more serious professional application, you may be interested in their top of the line models for several thousand dollars. They are more technical to learn to use, but offer the widest possible range of manually tweakable features, and will deliver a stunning result with the proper knowledge and skill.
There are other cameras out there that are worth looking into. Sony has just come out with an antishake viewfinder that looks interesting, but I think if you have these three basic levels in mind, you’ll have an easier time comparing the different models you’re considering in choosing a camera.
