This lesson is part of the series: Fundamentals of Digital Photography

In this lesson you will learn the very technical aspects to understand how exactly a digital camera works. Understanding these aspects is key to understanding what you should look for when picking out a digital camera. You will learn about tools within the body of your camera and how they work to produce a beautiful image. You will also cover sensors, memory chips, digital signals, pixel size, and more. Brian will also talk to you about the size of megapixels and how to choose a good camera depending on the quality of photographs you would like to have.

Digital photography is changing the way photographers create images with a new sense of imagination. Digital pictures are more than instant images as they can be instantly changed and improved.

This lesson is excerpted from the DVD, Digital Photography: The Camera, which is an excellent resource for those looking to learn the fundamentals of digital photography.

This is the first segment cut from the DVD and includes chapters 4 and 5 (covering How Digital Works & Choosing a Digital Camera).
