Beginners Guide to Film
If you have just bought a film camera or are thinking about shooting film you’re in the right place. I have put this guide together to help you get started with answers to the questions I had to figure out back when I started shooting film over a decade ago.
History/Background:
I won’t get deep into the history of film but there are things that are worth knowing which will help you make decisions like what camera to buy or film to use. Early photographers were essentially chemists, taking a single photo was very expensive, time-consuming and technical. Fast forward a few years, George Eastman founded Kodak and photography finally became mass-produced and accessible to the general public. All that had to be done was load the camera, take the photos and then send the film back to Kodak for processing. Back then the price of film included processing and the printed photos would be sent back to you.
Types of Film:
There are many different formats of film and it’s important

We have found that it can be easy to find out the difference in cameras regarding their photo and video capability to make sure it’s right for your needs, however, even our own staff get a little stuck when it comes to choosing the right storage card to match your camera. We also frequently see people with cards that don’t match the camera, not adequate for what the camera is capable of or even spending too much to buy a card that is not required for a particular camera.
We’ll start with the most common conversation we have:
SD and MicroSD
The MicroSD (right) standard was first introduced back in 2005. They had a much smaller physical size than their SD card counterparts, which is a natural advantage when fitting inside smaller devices. While most MicroSD cards do come with an adapter to convert them into standard sized SD cards, it is more designed so they will go into a more common SD card reader, rather than be constantly used in a device. Since MicroSD cards don't lock inside

Tripod DesignsEvery photographer from the cell phone snapper to the elite nature documentary knows that a wavering hand or heavy gust of wind can ruin an otherwise perfect shot. To accommodate these unforeseen forces, photographers began to adapt the artist's easel to hold a camera in place rather than a painting canvas. However, it goes further than simply being a stick to hold your camera though. Much like the majority of camera accessories, there are general and niche options available on the market today. So how do you decide which style tripod to get?
The Different Tripod Options
The world of photography has never been more accessible than it is today, with phone cameras capturing pictures with quality never imaginable for such a small device or extremely affordable high-quality mirrorless or DSLR's. This has led to more and more new photographers hitting the scene and sharing their favourite moments with the world. No one wants those moments to be blurry or fuzzy, ruining the shot -

Give Your Camera the Support It Needs
Even the highest quality camera using the newest technology can't digitally compensate for every movement made by a swaying arm or natural handshake. This is where tripods and tripod heads come into play. What was once just a stable appendage for your equipment to sit on has now evolved to give many options to your exact style of movement and orientation needed to get the shot.
Types of Tripod Heads
With the improvements in camera quality, the possibilities of what could be captured facilitated the need to stabilize shots in all environments. Depending on your needs, each tripod head has something to offer. To find the best one though, we'll need to dive into each option and how they operate.
Ball Heads
Definitely sitting at the throne of "most popular" tripod heads, ball heads utilize a machined bearing with a camera mount attached to them. This allows for full rotation as it does away with extra arms and axis-based construction that can hinder
