Digital SLR cameras give serious photographers more control over the quality of their images, by allowing them to take advantage of through-the-lens technology. The results are better looking flash pictures, versatility, creativity, and control. With prices dropping dramatically for these high-end cameras, serious photographers are making the transition to this new technology quicker than ever. The transition from film to digital photography, however, creates new challenges and new opportunities for photographers. This guide provides photographers with tips on overcoming challenges of operation and technique, and shows them how they have creative freedom to transform what was first captured into a true depiction of what they intended when the shutter was first snapped. Other topics covered include making pictures, scanning film, storing and archiving images, image processing on the desktop, and printing.
