Is it Ok to Use Cheaper Media in Your Digital Camera?

Especially in today's troublesome economy, with the high prices of digital cameras, rechargeable batteries, tripods, filters, and other accessories, you might be tempted to save some money by purchasing cheaper, generic digital camera media. And why not? Photos taken with cheaper media should look just the same as those taken with more expensive media, as long as the files get written correctly. Your JPG images will not come out more pixilated, and uncompressed TIFF and RAW files will contain the same information.

However, "saving money" has a few potential downsides:

* Brand name digital camera memory cards may be faster than their generic equivalents. If your digital camera supports the faster write speeds, you can take photos quicker by not waiting as long for your digital camera to store information onto the media. This is especially important if you wish to use drive mode and take multiple images in quick succession, useful for sporting events, wildlife photography, and other situations involving fast-moving subjects.

* Brand name digital camera memory may prove to be more reliable. On some generic memory I have used, even though the media did not outright fail, if you shot multiple photos quickly the memory card could 'hang', causing some photos to be lost. Since the photos were never successfully written to the media, they were unrecoverable.

* Brand name digital camera media may have limited warranties. If the media proves to be defective within a certain period of time after the purchase, it might be possible to get a replacement memory card. Some warranties may provide replacements at no charge; others might require modest shipping and handling charges.

Even with limited warranties, however, any lost photos on the defective media may remain lost. In some instances, media recovery applications may help. While I don't vouch for any particular software package, publishers include DataRescue, Jufsoft, and MediaRECOVER.

* Brand name digital camera memory may be rated to handle better in extreme conditions (hot and cold environments), useful if you plan on mountain climbing or shooting photos at a beach or desert. Of course, in such environments you may deal with other weather-related problems such as faster-draining batteries and condensation forming on the camera lens.

* Even if you want to purchase brand name digital camera memory, you may be tempted to purchase such media from lesser known stores, online outlets, or auction sites. After purchasing items at some establishments (though certainly not all), you might find yourself with counterfeit memory, generic memory repackaged as brand name! Such memory may increase the chances of data corruption, perform slower than advertised, and quite possibly damage the camera as you insert or remove the media. Plus, counterfeit memory lacks any true warranty, even if the fake packaging claims one is offered. As the adage goes, if a price is too good to be true, it just may be.

(Note that if this scam happens to you, you cannot always blame the store for the sale. It may have unknowingly purchased this memory from a fraudulent distributor.)

I am not recommending always buying the most expensive media at the most expensive retailer - the choice is yours. Some of the above potential downsides may not apply to your digital camera or your shooting conditions. You might not require faster shooting, and certainly not all generic memory will corrupt your data. However, for those truly concerned about their photos being written correctly and transferrable to backup media without incidents, paying a few extra bucks may prove to be money well spent.

Compact digital camera with SLR?

Are there any good compact digital cameras that give near SLR results? I need something that can take clear quick shots - I have a quick 7 month old that moves too quickly for our old Cybershot T1.

Well no.

And here are some reasons why.

The sensors in compact digital cameras are very small (we are not talking about pixel count, but actual size).

The shutter lag on compact digital cameras can be up to 2 seconds when using the flash. The fastest is 0.01 seconds but more often 0.8 seconds. DSLR's (SLR's) have shutter lag times of under 50 milliseconds .. the reason they are successful as sports and action cameras.

Tiltpod Quick-Connect Camera Stabilizer $14.99 How many times have you wished you could have been in the picture? You know when the group of friends gets together for a party and you're the only one who knows how to use the camera? Or perhaps hiked up a mountain and wished you could take a picture of yourself in front of the awesome sunset? Of course your compact digital camera has a self-timer, but how are you going to get the shot to line up just right? Carry a tripod with you? No, you need something light, something portable. You need a Tiltpod Quick-Connect Camera Stabilizer. The Tiltpod Quick-Connect Camera Stabilizer will always be ready when you need it. First, attach one of the pivots to your camera (use the screw on pivot if your tripod mount is in the center of your camera; use the stick on if it ain't). Then, thread the base through your wrist strap. The base has a strong magnet in it, and it attaches to the pivot point - giving you a ball jointed pivot to easily frame up your shot. And, the base of the Tiltpod Quick-Connect Camera Stabilizer has a grippery bottom to easily hold on to rocks, posts, tables, whatever you need to set your camera on to set it up. See? So with the Tiltpod Quick-Connect Camera Stabilizer you can easily set down your camera, adjust the shot, hit the self timer, and jump into frame! Oh, and it's also great for capturing photos that need a long exposure (like night shots) and hands free video. Trust us, once you capture your first special picture using your Tiltpod Quick-Connect Camera Stabilizer, you will be as hooked as we are. P.S. Camera not included. Tiltpod Quick-Connect Camera Stabilizer: A truly pocketable camera support - with a magnetic ball pivot to adjust to any angle! Great for taking self-timer group photos, long exposure night photos, and hands free video. Just screw in the rounded pivot (or stick on the sticky one, if your tripod socket is off center) and attach the base to your wrist strap. Now, you're ready for anything. The underside of the base is made of a grippy surface, to hold on at almost any angle. Oh, and it's magnetic, too. Made for compact digital cameras (aka: not for SLR or DSLR's). Includes: Stick on pivot, screw on pivot, magnetic base, wrist strap, and instructions. Base Dimensions: 2.125" x 1.5" x 0.25"
