Selecting a Digital Camera

I would use a digital camera if I had one because I see a lot of things that are interesting and I don't take a picture off of my phone because it usually turns up blurry and I end up deleting it. I would use the camera for taking pictures of playing sports, when i visit a cool place and that kinda stuff.

I would chose the "Sony A5000 Wi-Fi 20.1MP Mirrorless Camera with 16-50mm Lens - Black" Because it looks unreal and also the feature to be able to record your self and be able to see what the camera is seeing by just simply flipping the screen.

There was only two reviews and both of them rated the camera five stars with both positive comments. This is one of the comments -


"I love this camera.

One prices vary from-
Those are the only websites I could find with that camera

Carson and Kassidy's Picture Editing

Picture #1
  • First I used the "Vintage 1" filter under "drama" to give the photo an older look.
  • I also used the "Wes" filter under "vintage" to darken the edges of the photograph.
  • Next, I used the "tilt shift" feature to blur the areas around the photo's focus.
  • In the "frames" option, I chose a frame to give my photo the look of being on television. 
  • Last, I used the "centre focus" to even further blur the outside of the image.
Picture #2
  • First I used the "Drama 1" filter under "drama" to darken the photo.
  • Next, I used the "centre focus" feature on the left lens of the sunglasses to give it a more dramatic look
  • I also used "tilt shift" to even more blur the area around the lens.
  • Under the "tune image" option, I increased the brightness and contrast to sharpen the features of the photo.
  • Then I used a frame to give the image a vintage look.
Picture #3
  • First, I used the "tilt shift" feature the blur all the areas around Daniel and the net.
  • Next, I used the "Preset 2" filter in "HDR Scape" to brighten the image.
  • I used the "Charlie" filter in "vintage" to enhance the photo's focus points.
  • Also, the "Bright 1" filter in "drama" was used to increase the colour.

Journal Entry #6: Inside The Dark Web


After watching this documentary i learned that you can find anything or anyone on the internet easy. Also i learned that there is a house that is completely controlled by your smartphone or your tablet. The house is also the thing that i found the coolest because of the fact that you can control your house from your mobile phone is pretty cool.

Reflections on my Digital Life

Digital Media
I was surprised with the answers because they wern't what  i was expecting them to be because I didn't know that that many people used there cell phones that much

1. They compare to my life because i can relate to most of those situations

2. I use Facebook the most because i have most of my friends on there so i can connect with them easier and it is better in my opinion and I use Twitter the least because I find it easier to use other social medias and it is not as interesting

The Digital World
One upside about social media is that people can connect wit friends and family that life close to them and far away from them.

One downside about social media is cyber bullying. It is something that happens often even though people don't know it and they keep doing it.

This article is about how people don't realize how dangerous the internet and social media can be and also how easy you can track people by there post or even a status

Cyberbullying

 CyberBulling is creating more and more problems everyday with teens and even adults all around the world. When the guy said that information gets around quick he's right, it does get around fast! With the internet, these days with a click of a button any information can be anywhere in seconds! Making fun of  people online is just as bad as making fun of people offline. Just because they can't physically hit you, but the words still hurt just as bad. After being a target of cyberbullying, is probably not the nicest feeling in the world.. Watching someone get cyberbullied is even worse, seeing it first hand and no knowing how they feel.
