Get Digital

Want to take digital pictures without investing in an expensive digital camera? If you have a camcorder, and a modicum of technical knowhow, you can be taking and displaying crackerjack digital photos in no time at all. Just follow the instructions laid down by John Henshall in this terrific article reprinted from Digital PhotoFX magazine. Henshall's a Brit, so you'll have to bear with the occasional reference to "knickers," as well as price figures given in pounds--but you'll quickly catch his drift nonetheless. He'll teach you how to use your camcorder, a funky device called a Snappy, and the power of your PC or Mac to grab still images from your videos and turn them into bitchin' digital pix. Amaze your friends, save yourself a bundle, and learn a new skill. What could be better than that?
