Photography are such an interesting stuff to0 do, especially nowadays that digital photography are so easy and no need to spend so much money on buying those traditional film.
No wonder that there is alot of people that are carrying a digital camera on their hand can simply just snap on what ever that they want.
But how to take a good photograph ? what is the requirement.
I have been asking some of those friends that have been taking nice photo. The answer they give me mostly are u must have a good camera. A digital SLR. They keep saying which model with what kind of feature and how many mega pixels and so on... does that mean that if you are not rich u will never take good photographs ???
Maybe i am very poor on searching the net or i don't know which key words to search. i can't find useful technique for budget photography.
I myself would like to share with other about how start photography as a hobby with a cheap investment.
I personaly am using just an old Canon PowerShot A 520 just with 4.0 Mega Pixels. The reason i buy this camera is because of its compatibility and mobility. (Of cos now a day there are alot those very compact digital camera.) This camera is just nice. It is not that big anyway. The good things about it is that it just require 2 AA size battery (any AA size is ok, like those energizer or duracell battery. I personally are using GP 2700 rechargeable battery and for memory it can support any kind of SD or MMC card.( i personally are using the 1 GB SD with the back have a USB adapter. )
The quality of the image with the max file size 2272 x 1704 pixels with a 180 dpi quality.
There is one question that i keep asking the salesman of the digital camera. What is the resolution of the image. The only answer that they give me is, on the camera it say X.X Mega Pixels. From my experience, i don't remember what model the digital camera is ( there are a few) the camera mega pixels are definitely are higher than mine(this 4.o Mega pixels) but the resolution of the photo that the output is just 72 dpi. Some how the different is that 180 dpi provide a better quality of color.
Here is a sample. The top photo that my client provide me that he take this photo with his 8.0 mega pixels digicam. And the bottom one is me taking the same things with my 4.0 megapixels digicam. as i know both of us are using the max file size for taking this photo. but the different is this his file is just 72 dpi and mine is 180 dpi. with a zoom to 500 % we can see the different. So i personally feel that dpi is very important but the salesman don't know about it. so thats a very good way to sell your camera if you have a higher resolution that provide better color quality instead of bigger web photo.

For me, digital photography is very flexible nowadays. Depend on how you want the picture to be.
Its not necessary to buy a DSLR to have good pictures, it might turn out badly if you dont know how to use it.
For me myself, i love my SE K750i handphone. Yeah, its pretty old and it sounds crappy. It don't have many many mega pixels and higher resolution. It dont have super macro or useful functions.
But it takes down all my memories and happy moments easily.
I used DSLR too. i think DSLR is a bit wicked for a beginner like me. The picture always turn out badly or shaky at first. Either the picture is too dark or too bright. If use auto function seems nothing difference from the DC we always use.
After a while i have practice and trained. I only found that how fun it is. I would say like this, if you have a special occasion in a static venue, IT could be easier to use DSLR to take very nice picture.
But if traveling or running around, a small and light weight camera will be more fun and experimental..
check out my flickr.. it also used by a balia camera.. But the effect turn out GOOOD...
