Guide to Digital Cameras - Consumer vs. prosumer digital cameras
Tip: Highlight text to annotate itX
Okay the big differences are in the different kinds of digital cameras, the different levels
of digital cameras. The consumer cameras don't have manual exposure. That means you can't
change the speed, the shutter speed or the aperture like you want. And for some shots,
this is very important. Just about all cameras have an exposure level, where you can change
the exposure for back lighting and forward lighting. Which I'll talk about later on.
But only a prosumer camera or a professional camera will have the ability to go in and
do a manual exposure. So all consumer cameras are silver or a decorative color. They have
them in pink and red and blue and all that. Now the prosumer level cameras, generally
you can buy them in either silver or black. They normally don't come in any other colors
besides that. And the pro level cameras all come in black.
