  • Digicams are compact point and shoot cameras from the early 2000's that produce charming vintage looking photographs. These days Digicams are a popular choice for the casual photographer looking to capture memories with friends at a budget friendly price point resulting in people who have never had an interest in photography pick up a camera for the first time. This is the Digicam Movement and how it is CHANGING photography as we know it.

    But can a digicam replace a disposable? 👀

      If you can get one for under $30 then they should imo, unless you're a fan of the ritual of it, or you know for sure you want the soft plastic lens at f11 or whatever. Got a good deal on a kyocera finecam sl300r recently (don't get this one lol it and it's contax bretheren are too expensive normally), and it's been taking the place of a film camera for party shots for sure. Normal photos come out better than I thought too.

    i've been using my sony digi-cam before it became a trend, and i gotta say, small compact camera really helps me to get through my daily street photography needs since dslr's are kind of considered a luxury here in the philippines. considering its megapixels and the quality, it can still take great images for me.

    This is applied philosophy. I understand that the point is to make the act of taking a picture conscious. I guess that having a dedicated object is the first quality of a digicam. The second point is its limitations. Because you can't get a picture as sharp as the one one you have in your mind, you're stuck in the materiality of the support and the picture recovers its quality of being an object itself. Maybe this is true but I feel a bit confused because when I take my phone and choose the camera app, obviously I know what I'm doing. At the end there's one thing I'm sure about. The prices get higher and so digicams get more and more desirable. But I'm not so sure about the why.

  • @eyedeerman
    @eyedeerman Před 2 měsíci

    Reality check:
    I wouldnt say the quality/look of the photo itself is nearly as close to being synonymous to 35mm film. It's really just the lo-fi pixelation kind of appreciation. They read/capture light differently and still can require some minor fine tuning post processing.
    In my experience, I would say its synonymous to [point and shoots] because it gives you that ability to immediately take a photo with the trust it'll capture the light (and focus) effectively. The best digi cams are the ones that you can shut off the display or rotate the screen like Canon Powershot G series because then you won't be pixel peeping and effectively treating it more like film. The screen resolution was so poor back then too so even if you pixel peep, what you see is far from what the actual uploaded file looks like. You still run the risk of taking an excessive number of photos unless it's a small enough storage card.
    The fact is, it allows us to capture photos... just differently.

    Dont forget that the current big camera manufacturers dont want everyone to realize is that th3 kiw megapixel count does not really matter since we all share these images on our 5 to 6 inch phone screens. They always bombard us that we need a minimum of 40 mp and that 10 mp is old and should be forgotten.
