Compact camera
• Compact cameras are

basically consumer camera
• Easy to use and carry
• Low price
• Small sensor
• Built in flash
• LCD screen
• Creative modes
• Extreme, Prestige and
Super-zoom compacts
• Canon, Sony and Nikon
produce various models
Twin Lens Reflex Camera
Camera having two lenses of the same
focal length, placed one over the
above is known as TLR. In such
camera, one lens is used for viewing
and focusing, the other for exposing
the film. The two lenses have the same
angle of view and move in unison as
the image is focused. Rollieflex was
the most popular TLR.
• No facility to interchange the lens
• waist level viewing system
• Medium format.
Rangefinder Camera
A rangefinder camera is a
camera fitted with a
rangefinder (an optical device
for measuring distance) which
allows the photographer to
measure the subject distance
and capture images that are in
sharp focus. Most varieties of
rangefinder show two images
of the same subject in the
viewfinder. To focus the
image, a ring around the lens is
turned until the two images
coincide.
View Camera
Design and working of View Camera
View camera is a large format studio camera whose viewing
system consists of a ground glass screen at the back of the camera
on which frame is composed and focus before the film is inserted.
The front and back of the camera are attached by a flexible below
unit which forms a light tight seal between two adjustable
standards known as front standard and rear standard, allows a full
range of movements. These offer a greatest degree of control. The
front standard holds the lens and shutter while rear standard holds
ground glass which is used for focusing and composing the image
before exposure and replaced by a holder containing the light
sensitive film plate for exposure. Use 4*5 or 8*10 inches plate. It
is slower in process but give high quality result. It is heavy and not
good for subject with motion.
Underwater Camera
Cont…
Underwater camera is used to capture the images under
water. It is waterproof and require a watertight housing
for underwater use. It requires specialized equipment
and techniques to click picture. Such type of cameras
give their best result with wide angle and macro lens.
Fish, marine mammals, sub-murged cave and underwater
landscape are the best option to click as subject. A
special flash (fill flash) is used with to supplement the
overall exposure and restore lost color. Automatic
exposure modes help us to get best picture quality.
Single Lens Reflex Camera
A single-lens reflex camera
(SLR) typically uses a mirror
and prism system (hence
"reflex", from the mirror's
reflection) that permits the
photographer to view through the
lens and see exactly what will be
captured, contrary to viewfinder
cameras where the image could
be significantly different from
what will be captured. S L
R gives us greater control over
photography.

Digital Single Lens Reflex Camera
• DSLR is a camera which
works on the same
pattern of SLR camera
but it uses sensor not
film role
• Greater control over the
art of capturing images

picture camera designed for
Polaroid materials. There is
