Best memories are worth remembering about. As Filipinos, we are all accustomed of recording every detail of memorable happenings in our lives. Be it a Birthday party, Wedding, Christmas and New year celebrations, everything needs a photography.
Analog camera by then was one of the most valuable possessions a man could have. A photographer could make a several shots on a certain subject but it depends on the number of his film and battery life. You also had to make sure that when capturing for photos, it needs to be precise or else, you would be spending a shot that you could never delete. A flash can be used only during the absence of light but when using an analog camera, it can be used anytime of the day.
My professor in Photojournalism said that during those times that the royalty families were privileged to be photographed, they would wait for hours posing for the camera before it record their images. It uses a bomb-like material to enhance the light that it made those images looked like a shocked ones. When you see those old portraits hanging on the museum, observe how the subject had behaved in a still position. How can you dare smiling or posing your best when you had to wait for nearly a day just to have the image? That might be the reason why old photos never had the wacky postures. :)
The abrupt flare-up of digital cameras have flushed away the popularity of the analog cameras. Everybody is attracted to the function it offers. You can capture an image with the help of its wide screen. You can manipulate the resolution, size and picture colors. You can make a boundless shots and delete whatever you want to. There's also a new one with an access to facebook, a touch-screen and built-in with different features that would surely seduce you to buy one.
