Why do I need to format a new memory card for a digital camera before using it?

Question by tiggirl19: Why do I need to format a new memory card for a digital camera before using it?
We've have just bought a new digital camera and immediately started taking pictures, then read that the memory card should be formatted before using. What now?


Best answer:

Answer by Terisu
I've done the same thing, and usually it's no problem. Every now and then, the pictures will mysteriously disappear though. Buy an inexpensive card reader and see what's on the card. If you have images there, just transfer them over to your hard drive. Formatting is an easy way to erase old pictures that you've already transferred, but I've gotten by many times by just deleting the pictures using my computer.

How do you broadcast on the internet using a digital camera?

Question by 19 year old girl: How do you broadcast on the internet using a digital camera?
I have a Canon digital camera. I have the USB chord and another wire that has a black and yellow outputs on the end of the chord, opposite of where it goes into the camera. These are the only 2 wires my camera came with. How can I start broadcasting. I need step by step instructions.
(Do I need to download any programs?)


Best answer:

Answer by water_skipper
Maybe you can't. A digital camera is normally made for shooting still images or taking videos that are saved as files. Most of them are not capable of live video. Get a USB web cameras instead. By the way, who are you trying to "broadcast" to? You probably want a instant message program that supports video chat.

In professional photography, the camera body isn't as important as the lenses are. It really all depends on what types of photographs you will be taking. There are all different types of lenses for all different purposes.

Answer by jdbaum42
I won't suggest a make and model, but you should consider a DSLR and a good macro lens, maybe a ring light too. The lens is really the defining factor here. It'll cost you, but it will definitely take you to the next level.

Question by Pauly W: What is the difference between a 35mm camera and a digital camera?
I purchased a digital camera at a garage sale for $ 10 two weeks ago, and I am still learning how to use it. I do know that you get the pictures right away, and you can post them on the computer and share them on social networks such as Facebook, but what I would like to know is do they work the same as a 35m camera?


Best answer:

Answer by Mr. Smartypants
A digital camera, you can just transfer the pictures directly to your computer.A 35mm camera needs film, when then has to be developed and printed, then either the print or the negative needs to be scanned with a scanner.

Well let start this way do you have any photo studios or photo gallerys if so open them up and you should find a option to upload pics from digital camera. If not then you need to buy one or download one from download.com they have some freeware photo studios for free then you will be able to download your digital pics. If you have any questions fell free and email me.

Best answer:

Answer by capwest5a
Well, digital cameras have been put to both good and bad uses. Contractors use them to say survey a work site and the images are so clear even when enlarged. Makes it easy to show perhaps a job well done.
------------
But then you have the voyeurs. Same deal. Crystal clear images of some girl taking a shower or something. I can't really say that's a cultural 'development'. More of a negative. But still, it's an effect of usage of digital cameras.
