I am a beginner when it comes to photography and at the moment I only have a pocket digital camera See Here
I want to get in to some ammature phatography in my spare time as a hobby and I have been looking at Digital SLR camera's (DSLR I believe)
I have a few questions about them:
-What are the main advantages to having an SLR over a normal pocket camera?
-Apart from the size are there any downfalls?
-With SLR's, are the lense's changable or do you have to buy the lense aswell as the camera?
-Does the Camera's zoom just depend on what lense you have attatched to it?
-On avarage how fast are SLR's at taking photo's, can you take rapid photos one after another like you see photographers do on films with DSLR's?
-Do they take normal memory cards to store the pics like all Digi cams?
-Generaly what is battery life like compeared to normal pocket cameras?
