Having lost count of the quantity of folk who have asked me : have you gone digital? I’m always left thinking about why it’s such a much-asked query.

The camera is only a tool in which a snapper creates an image. His private capability to form a totally unique image is the same.

For many kinds of photography, digital has long held clear benefits, except for landscapes the resolution important to make bigger prints just was not available. But things have changed and digicams are fast turning into the tools that most pros use. But are they able to basically match the big format film cameras?

This is the best question that all photographers face. Instant LCD feedback is digitals best present and this enables the paparazzo to test exposure and composition of their image in the blinking of an eye. While this is a giant advantage, the hours spent in front of the personal computer processing the raw footage need to be a hindrance.

A landscape photographers time is best spent behind a camera not in front of a P. C. The good points and bad points of digital photography will remain an issue for some substantial time. At the end of the day a digicam will not make a photographers footage better.

The first Photoshop training I ever received was when I was producing an animated film for an independent production studio in Merida, Mexico. That was in 1995. We were using Adobe Photoshop 3.0 on Mac computers-state of the art. I was amazed by what graphic designers and digital editors were doing with Photoshop 3. Working with those people changed the way I saw the world.

I’m not a visual effects editor or a graphic designer by profession. I was in awe of what Photoshop artists were doing with Photoshop 3.0 back in 1995, and I’m equally in awe of what artists are doing today with Photoshop CS4.

I was not a visually oriented person when I saw Photoshop in use the first time. I thought I was, but I wasn’t-not when I compared myself to the people who were doing such amazing things with Photoshop. I was managing, organizing, planning, attacking logistical problems, taking care of the business end, writing and editing a lot of text in English and Spanish. We were working long days and at times longer nights. I was inspired by what the Photoshop editors were doing. We were using Adobe Photoshop to color and composite animation frames, as Disney did in its animated version of Beauty and the Beast two years earlier.
