Digital Cameras are a good Gift for Children
I’ve always enjoyed photography and my first camera was a Kodak Instamatic when I was 9. Not only it was a plastic camera with a quality equivalent to that of a Holga camera but the film was really expensive. My parents only bought me a 12 roll film for very special occasions normally family holidays so I could not use it very often and even when I did, once or twice a year, I could only take 12 photos. It also had something called Magicube that was a flash that you could use four times and then you had to replace it. These days kids have a much easier life with digital cameras, now even a fairly cheap camera will take much better photo than my old Kodak. On top of that there is no limitations to the number of photos they can take, as long as they have one or more digital camera memory cards they can take as many photos as they like. Once at home the photos can be uploaded on the PC, the good ones kept and the rest deleted. If there are very good photos there is always the option to print them or even enlarge them. There is no need of printing and processing a series of photos only to discover that they are all too dark.
