CAMERA
i) TYPES OF CAMERA
ii) CAMERA FUNCTION
Prepared by :
Muhammad Asri bin Azuddin
WHAT IS CAMERA?
• A camera is an optical instrument for recording images,
which may be stored locally, transmitted to another
location, or both.
• The images may be individual still photographs or
sequences of images constituting videos or movies.
• The word camera comes from camera obscura, which
means "dark chamber“.
• The modern photographic camera evolved from the
camera obscura. The functioning of the camera is very
similar to the functioning of the human eye.
CAMERA OBSCURA
TYPES OF CAMERA
1)PINHOLE CAMERA
2)VIEW CAMERA
3)TWIN LENS REFLEX CAMERA (TLR)
4)VIEW FINDER CAMERA
5)SINGLE LENS REFLEX CAMERA (SLR)
1) PINHOLE CAMERA
• A pinhole camera, a variation of Camera obscura.
• A simple camera without a lens and with a single
small aperture, a pinhole – effectively a light-
proof box with a small hole in one side.
• Light from a scene passes through this single
point and projects an inverted image on the
opposite side of the box.
1) PINHOLE CAMERA
ADVANTAGES
1.Very in expensive
2.Easy to make
3.Artistic impression
4.Maximum depth of field
1) PINHOLE CAMERA
DISADVANTAGES
1.No control
2.Long exposures
3.Can not view what the camera sees
2) VIEW CAMERA
• The view camera is a type of camera first developed
in the era of the daguerreotype (1840s-'50s) and still
in use today, though with many refinements.
• It comprises a flexible bellows that forms a light-tight
seal between two adjustable standards, one of which
holds a lens, and the other a viewfinder or a
photographic film holder.
2) VIEW CAMERA
Movement
2) VIEW CAMERA
ADVANTAGES
1.Allow for perspective and distortion control of
landscape and architecture.
2.Large film size allows for very large prints.
3. Variety of special use attachments.
4.Directly viewing of the image.
5.Wide selection of lenses.
2) VIEW CAMERA
DISADVANTAGES
•Lots of control
•Very large and heavy camera
•Most models require the use of tripod
•Image difficult to see on viewing glass
•Takes time to set up and use
3) TWIN LENS REFLEX CAMERA (TLR)
• A twin-lens reflex camera (TLR) is a type of
camera with two objective lenses of the same
focal length.
• One of the lenses is the photographic
objective or "taking lens" (the lens that takes
the picture)
• while the other is used for the viewfinder
system, which is usually viewed from above at
waist level.
3) TWIN LENS REFLEX CAMERA (TLR)
ADVANTAGES
1.Larger film size for high quality enlargement
2.Image always visible in viewfinder
3) TWIN LENS REFLEX CAMERA (TLR)
DISADVANTAGES
1.Lots of control
2.Large size camera
3.Many models do not have interchangeable
lenses
4.Parallax error
4) VIEW FINDER /RANGE FINDER
CAMERA
• A rangefinder camera is a camera fitted with a
rangefinder: a range-finding focusing
mechanism allowing the photographer to
measure the subject distance and take
photographs that are in sharp focus.
4) VIEW FINDER /RANGE FINDER
CAMERA
ADVANTAGES
1.Easy to use
2.Focus free
3.Small compact camera
4) VIEW FINDER /RANGE FINDER
CAMERA
DISADVANTAGES
1.Few control
2.Low picture quality
3.Parallax error
5) SINGLE LENS REFLEX CAMERA (SLR)
• A single-lens reflex camera (SLR) typically uses
a mirror and prism system that permits the
photographer to view through the lens and
see exactly what will be captured.
5) SINGLE LENS REFLEX CAMERA (SLR)
ADVANTAGES
1.No parallax error
2.Variety of interchangeable lens
3.Variety of controlled adjustment
4.Wide range of shutter speed
5) SINGLE LENS REFLEX CAMERA (SLR)
DISADVANTAGES
1.Frequently have complicated controls
2.Larger size camera
3.Shutter and mirror system tend to be noisy
Any question ? 
