1. Introduction
Here is a summary of the links to my articles. The reason for this blog is to develop a better understanding of digital cameras and digital photography.
I started this blog in 2017 when my journey kicked off to find a theoretical explanation for how the digital camera works. I spend hours searching and testing new information before using it in articles. My goal has always been theoretically correct and consistent information. That said, I regularly correct and update my articles. It is good to check my "last updated" date for each article. The blog was updated in January 2024. I remove older articles, and I review most of the remaining ones.
The idea of this page was simple. It lists a group of categories in the above illustration. I add new articles to each of these categories. This page is my main message board to learn about something new I did. I will add a "NEW" indicator for new and updated articles.
Technical information on digital digital cameras is complex. The goal is to present information as concisely and user-friendly as possible. I like readers to get value from theoretically consistent info. The subjects discussed in this blog have a common theme. I spend hours preparing concepts like Sensor Performance (exposure) versus Amplifying (ISO) the image signal. One of the challenges we face on social media is commercial promotions like the "size and capture" theory.
