This month, CrossFit's Media Director gives some tips on buying a digital camera and lenses suited to the needs of affiliates and others who want good shots of CrossFit-type action. He talks about various styles and prices of cameras on the market, from relatively inexpensive small and medium-size point-and-shoot models up to "prosumer" digital SLR models, and weighs the pros and cons of the features of each. Some of the factors he discusses:
- size
- start-up speed
- aperture (f-stop)
- megapixels
- shutter delay
- multiple frames per second
- lens types
- zoom
