Analog photography and digital photography

1) What are some photographic effects that can be achieved using digital or analog (darkroom, film, lights etc) technology?
Light changing is one of the photographic effects that can be achieved by both digital and analog  technology.With digital technology,we can change the brightness by computer,and we can just tune the "ISO" and check which standard of "ISO" is most suitable light that we aim to catch in photo.With analog technology,we can change the shutter to adjust the standard of light that photo shows.

Also,we can change colour both by the two technologies.We can use colour filter on digital and traditional camera to make photos change to different tones and colours.

2) What are some photographic techniques that can only be done using digital technology?
Preview photos is one of the photographic techniques that can onlu be done by digital technology.We can check the effect of photos taken by ourself.We have chance to ajust the photo if we find the effect is not perfect.It attracts more people to start shooting photo as it becomes much more cheaper without the necessary of using film to take photo.They can try what they want by using digital camera.

There is lots of photographic techniques that can only done by digital technology.Here's some examples!


this special technology makes the landscape looks like model~~~!

lomography effect?!
this effect is the "noise" effect ~


why the last two can only done by digital technology??
Because they pretend to be film photos!!!!XDDD
The uniqueness is:people don't need to buy so many different types of cameras to acheive different effect!
SAVE MONEY!!!





 
3)  What is the difference between analog photography and digital photography?
There are certainly quite a lot of differences in terms of their output format and physical appearence.

Regarding the format, digital photography is presented in a digital format which can be saved in a memory card.Scene is captured in the digital photography by using the digital as a kind of electronic way.
After the light has reach the sensor, a digital memory can be formed.

But the traditional one is saved in a film format. Light is allowed to be caught on the film. After a chemical reaction has taken place, the form of the target can be recorded.

Regarding the appearence, a digital photography can present a total different depiction from the reality once a specific adjustment has been set before taking photos. Also, we can get a various texture of photograph as it is comparatively free for us to choose a special kind of paper(like a rough one, semi-transparent one, coloured one) on which we are going to print the photograph.

However, the traditional photography can only present a relatively realistic scenery including the lighting, the color, the mood. Refered to the chemical reaction I mentioned prior, we can only make the photos onto some particular photo papers. For that reason, we may sometimes get a less variety of traditional photography.
