Managing your photos

Most cameras come with an 8 MB memory card that lets you store several dozen photos (the number varies according to the camera model and quality of the image). Next, the photographer has three possibilities:

  • Erase the images he does not want (but a good photographer wants all of his images).

  • Transfer the content of the memory card into a computer (the computer must be within reach, unless you have a laptop).

  • Transfer the content of the memory card onto an external hard disk (Digital Wallet or Image Tank). The problem is that this disk costs as much as the digital camera!

You have decided to buy a digital camera? Then you better learn how to use it, because it takes more than just pressing a button. Whether its traditional or digital, photography is an art and a technique. This is what makes it fun, and we will cover this in our various workshops.
