Digital cameras have severely reduced the sale of film cameras over the years due to its superiority over the latter in a number of matters. Some of the reasons why you should choose a digital camera over a film camera are listed below.
Digital cameras are usually more expensive than film cameras but as time passes by, you will realize that it is actually more economic. In case of a film camera, you just have to keep buying films to take pictures, while a digital camera only requires a single memory card from which you can transfer or delete data at will. You also save money because you do not need to pay for the film to be developed into photos; all you need to do is print a copy of the digital imprint onto a photo paper with a photo printer. Even if you do not have the photo printer, it will cost you less to get it printed than it would to get a film developed. This also saves money each time you need a copy of the picture.
Digital cameras have an LCD display which lets you see your pictures immediately after you take them thus allowing you to decide whether or not that shot was worth keeping right at that time. This saves a lot of time and is much smarter than to wait in confusion for the film to be developed and know whether or not the shot was good enough. It is that LCD which will let you edit your photos through the editing software provided in the digital camera. This software lets you crop, increase or decrease the brightness, contrast or sharpness and do much more depending on what camera you are using.
You can transfer the pictures that you have taken, at any time to your computer with the help of a data cable and then share it with the world through social networking websites or e mail. What this does is that it allows you to use your photos more flexibly and in any way that you may choose.
The fact that you do not require a film roll anymore gives you the ultimate freedom that a camera man can expect to get. Digital cameras do not run out of films so you may now rest easier while shooting on your vacation, if you just buy a single memory card large enough for your purpose.
Apart from all of the above, there are plenty of other reasons why a digital camera is a better choice, consider all the extra settings that you get to adjust and thus customize your photos to a more personal level. For instance, the white balance setting allows you to adjust to all lighting conditions while earlier, the only option was to change film rolls. Red eye reduction helps you to reduce the chances of a red eye effect and there are so many more little tricks that make the digital camera a clear winner that a digital camera becomes your obvious choice.
