The Digital World

     I have been an active photographer off and on for years; no decades. It was twenty years ago when I began to use digital camera's on a regular basis. I was with Dale Jr. Whoa, Dale Earnhardt Jr. in the Carolina's at a metal shop building. Jr. had a few friends for me to meet. I was to discuss my being able to photograph an array of things with their permission. There were a few people that I know that would arrive during the presentation. I was to give a tutorial on film use if I was to get the assignments. I held a few camera's and talked about how to use them. Don Redford (Mr. Redford), Mr. Reboulet, and Bobby Earl Overstreet. Bobby Earl is my brother. He holds my feet to the fire for the film level to work. Here's the kicker Mr. Reboulet worked for Kodak the film company. So it is important to know that I have to understand film and it's development. I have developed film for Photography I in college. "I don't know as much about digital camera's as I do film camera's." Is how I began dissertation (also known as a thisaurtation: to give dictionary level examples.) I had to explain in front of Mr. Reboulet how film works when photographing and developing to satstify a "Kodak Man." Darren explain thefilm speeds and how they work and I will set you up with a Kodak level. That you will always have a way to take care of in your level. Mr. Reboulet I think we are moving into digital. Well today Kodak has a line of digital products. So today it's not emulussion (Emulsion film is a thin sheet or strip of flexible material coated with a photosensitive emulsion.) it's digital pixels. There is a lot to discuss here if you are not sure of the differences between film grain and digital pixel dots.
