Unit 30: Task 1: M1

Task 1 M1
Limitations digital cameras and scanners etc.
>cost based
>quality based
>size based


Digital camera:
>Do not produce good pictures - The main reason you purchase a high quality camera is so that it produces great quality pictures and if the digital camera has small megapixels it will result in poor quality images. So when purchasing a camera it is best to focus on the megapixels and ensure that they are high so that you will have very good quality photographs.
>Do not flash - If it does not flash you will be incapable of taking photographs at night for it will be too dark and the image will be distorted and barely visible.
>Storage - some digital cameras do not have very large storage areas so you may have to use an SD card to store all your images so they will not be lost.
>Some only work with SD card - If they only work with an SD card then you will have to separately purchase an SD card so that it can store your captured images.
>Costs a lot for a good enough digital camera which range £300 for professional quality which will also remain to have limitations no matter how much it may cost. 
>The hard disk can fail which can result in loosing all image files if they have not been previously backed up.
>There may be a corrupted memory card which can erase any images saved on the memory card. 
>May have a low battery life and lose charge fairly quickly meaning you cannot take any further images until the digital camera has been recharged.
>Slow shutter speed - If you are trying to catch an image that is going at a fast speed it is best to have a fast shutter otherwise it will not capture the image fast enough resulting in it being blurred and distorted.

All-in-one printer and scanner:
> Have size restrictions which can restrict the size of paper you may be using to 
>Lamp replacement - If the bulb breaks in the scanner it is impossible to scan various data to allow the data to be received and will be incapable of scanning the document through until the bulb has been replaced. 
>Unwanted extras - scanners and printers always come with unwanted extras on them especially additional apps to make alterations to your documents where some of them are considered highly unnecessary with the documents you require to duplicate.
> £159.99 for an all-in-one printer, it may sometimes be fairly expensive for high quality producing all in one printers. 
>Ink is expensive to replace when used up.
>Expensive to repair if damaged as there are more components required to replace and mend.
                                                    
Graphics tablet: 
>Slower than drawing normally - this can be an issue as some people may just result into normal drawing as it is easier to access and a faster option.
>Lag - It may take a while for it to register and you may go over details you think you haven't already and repeat the action therefore making your image lines thicker etc.
>Larger designs can cost more - It can cost more to produce larger images as they involve intricate details that are necessary for the graphic.
>Difficult for beginners - It can be quite difficult to grasp the new techniques and approaches that you need to acquire to use the graphics tablet.
>Cost this graphics tablet costs £1,599.99 which is very expensive for a high quality graphics tablet 
>Easily broken - Not very durable, they are considerably fragile and can receive many issues with components breaking and replacing these components can be considerably expensive.
                                               
Vinyl cutter:
> They take up more space than a regular printer.
>Expensive as the cost of a plotter happens to be more expensive than a regular printer.
>If you have limited space it may take a fair amount of time to find the correct locations where the plotter may have to be.
>Not very durable, are easily broken which will result in replacing it and it then costing more to replace it. 
                                                       

Photoshop:
>Hard to use for beginners - It can be fairly difficult to grasp new techniques. 
>Expensive - Various bundles that have different option available can only be purchased separately and will cost a lot more for very important bundles that are highly accessible and desired.  
>Requires a lot of memory to store - To store various produced graphics and the software itself it requires a lot of memory storage space for everything created to remain safely secured onto your devices system.
