is exposure more dificult with digital cameras than film cameras?

Answer 1

Getting the exposure correct is more important with digital than it is with film. Digital has a smaller dynamic range, which in effect means that it clips the highlights sooner than film. The transition is also more abrupt than with film, where you get a more gradual roll off (to washed out areas of pure white or flooded areas of pure black).
A $5 disposable beats my $1600 Nikon D200 in this respect.

Answer 2

Not at all. Modern digital cameras have exposure controls that allow you to see the difference before you take the picture. Plus, of course, even if a digital photo is under or over exposed, you can manipulate later using something like Photoshop.

Answer 3

digital cameras are easier to use but take the fun out of phtotgraphy. I prefer film cameras cos you can play with settings to get a diseried effect. The use of exposure compensation shutter speeds and apertures. You can get these on a top end Digital camera but you cannot beat the "real image" from a real camera.........

Answer 4

I would not say so. It's still as important as it was with film to get the exposure correct. However, in photoshop or similar programs you can really tweak digital pictures and correct mistakes that were made when taking the picture. Of course this has its limits too. But overall to answer your question, not much has changed when it comes to exposure.

Answer 5

Nope! Exposure tends to be easier! Film has very tight latitude for exposure but can be enhanced with photo software! equally the same answer for digital images!!

Answer 6

Many digital cameras have auto settings that adjust to the lighting and setting, using the optimum setting for the best picture. I would go into a camera shop and they should be able to help you and give you a professional answer.

Answer 7

yes it is... because digicam doesnt work optically... and the pixels technology makes it inaccurate
