Have you heard of the saying ‘size matters’? Well when that saying first came about it was generally meaning that the bigger the better. As time goes by society is becoming more miniaturized and compact. Nobody wants ‘big’ stuff anymore, big is just too bulky and inconvenient. People want small and compact! When it comes to digital cameras it is small and compact that more and more people are looking for.
There are a lot of small digital cameras now available, like the Canon Elph digital camera and these cameras are becoming the most popular for the following reasons:
1. Easy to use
The smaller digital cameras that are available these days, like the Canon Elph, are very user friendly. They have the option to be completely automatic so you don’t need to worry about focusing, lens selection or film selection. All you need to do is simply aim and shoot and in return you receive a great quality photo.
Of course if you want more technical specifications and power then you would probably need a bigger more professional camera, however these smaller digital cameras will still give you fantastic picture quality. So unless you really need a professional camera, then I suggest leaving them to the professionals as a small, compact user friendly camera will give you great pictures without the stress of technical settings.
2. Easy to carry
When you compare a big professional camera that weighs a ton to a small, compact camera that is light as a feather, which do you think would be easier to carry and to store?
Small cameras like the Canon Elph are fantastic for travelling when you don’t have a lot of room for excess luggage and you want something that is light. When you are on a tour or even at a birthday party, it is so much easier to carry a small, compact camera that can fit in your hand or in your handbag.
3. Easy to share
Another fantastic feature of the Canon Elph digital camera is its ability to plug it into a computer and share your photos. You can save your photos onto your computer, onto a disk or a flash drive and you can even easily upload them to the internet or email them to share with your friends.
It was only a few years ago when you had to take a film into the photo developing shop to get your photos and then get copies printed of those you wanted to share. Then you would need to put them in an envelope and post them to your friends. What a long and annoying process! It is much less time consuming now just to plug your camera into your computer and share your photos instantly.
4. Easy to add features
One great feature about the Canon Elph digital camera is the ability to edit and add features to your photos. You can take black and white photos or sepia photos to give them an old fashioned feel. You can change the color effects as well as many other features.
There are a number of different colors and effects that you can play around with are great for those who love to be creative with their pictures. You can make your photos more dramatic or more vibrant; there really is no limit to what you can do with the features available on this camera.
Size does matter, if you don’t want to lug around a big, heavy camera. Small and compact cameras are the way to go for a much easier camera experience.
