Digital SLR Cameras -
What's New for Military Photography
It’s been remarkable to witness the evolution
of the SLR camera, first as a film camera marveled by
all for many years, and now as a maturing digital camera
with many very impressive features. The evolution continues
as new features are being introduced at a steady rate!
For the military or law enforcement photographer, some
of the newest features can be quite useful for portable
observation and in-the-field news gathering, both at
night and during the day. This article describes some
of the more important features of the digital SLR, or
dSLR, camera and how these features improve the state-of-the-art
for military photography.

The Three Primary Technologies for
Night-time Video Surveillance - Master these and
you'll never be in the dark
There are lots of challenges in performing
video surveillance at night. The optimal solution for
a particular application will depend on the requirements
for the specific application.
The "best" system design for
a specific video surveillance system that includes imaging
at night will utilize one of the three primary night
vision technologies: low-light imaging, thermal imaging
and near-infrared illumination. In this article, these
three technologies are explained and the advantages of
each reviewed.
