CHAPTER ONE

WHAT IS DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY?

Digital photography is a modern imaging method that records visual information using electronic sensors rather than conventional photographic film. By transforming light into digital data and enabling the production, storing, and editing of photographs in a digital format, this technique completely changed the photographic industry. Digital photography, in contrast to its analog predecessor, uses sensors made up of millions of photosensitive components, or pixels, organized in a grid pattern. These sensors gather data on color and light intensity, producing a digital file that may be handled, altered, and distributed across a range of digital media.

The instantaneous feedback loop of digital photography is one of its main advantages as it allows photographers to instantly evaluate, edit, and retake pictures. This immediate input makes it easier to capture the intended visual story in a more effective and iterative manner. Since photos are saved directly on memory cards or internal storage, digital photography has also done away with the requirement for film development, simplifying workflow and removing time limits related to conventional chemical procedures.

In the post-capture stage of digital photography, certain software programs are used to process digital images. Photographers can use this step to refine, edit, and optimize their shots in accordance with their artistic vision. Moreover, the digital format allows for easy distribution via internet platforms, creating a worldwide community of photographers who can participate in cooperative conversations and present their work to a larger audience.

Camera technology has advanced as a result of the development of digital photography; manufacturers are constantly
