What is an APS digital SLR camera?

Advanced photo system

In other words, the advanced imaging system is a revolutionary new imaging system, and we think most digital imaging workers will use it in the next few years. Some large film manufacturers and camera manufacturers in the world have noticed the rapid development trend of digital photography and jointly developed APS. APS will replace film and 35mm photography. For those who devote themselves to digital photography, many advantages of APS are worth noting. The design idea of APS is: treat film as a disk. In other words, film is used to save images and other information such as shooting time, shooting date, comments, camera setting parameters, etc. The captured images can be saved in various formats: 3.6 inches× 6 inches, 3.5 inches× 5 inches and 4 inches× 6 inches. The storage formats of panoramic photos are 3.5 inches× 8.5 inches and 4 inches×11.5 inches. Cameras supporting APS can quickly switch the same film and take photos in different formats. You can change the film even in the middle of a roll of film. In addition, the film can be reused. Without exposing the film, the film in the film box can be rolled forward or backward. APS has many incomparable characteristics compared with traditional cameras: it also uses traditional films, which need to be photographed, developed, made into negatives and finally printed on photographic paper; For APS, the film is rolled back into the film barrel after being developed. Users only need to select the photos to be processed, and they can scan them into the computer with special scanning equipment for processing. Just like using a digital camera. You can take the developed film home and handle it yourself without the help of the photo agency. APS also needs to develop the film. Therefore, digital camera is the most important tool to generate digital images. However, APS promises to reduce the differences between film-based photography technology and digital camera technology that does not require film. In a word, the development of APS technology shows that the future development direction is digital and computer-based photography technology, whether photographers use traditional photography technology or new filmless digital photography technology.
