When Film is Free: 11 Things To Do With Your Digital Camera
By Brian | December 5, 2008 | Share on Facebook
Via Glenn Reynolds, a link to eleven cool things you can do with your digital camera that you may not have thought about before:
- Tip #1: Photograph a note with your name, address, blood type, allergies, etc. in case you lose your camera or are found unconscious
- Tip #2: Photograph floorplans, mall layouts or subway maps so you can refer to them as you wander about
- Tip #3: Photograph parking lot signs so you remember where you parked
- Tip #4: Photograph something before you take it apart to fix it, in case you want to remember what it looked like before you started
- Tip #5: Photograph license plates of cars parked next to you in case your car gets dinged while you’re away
- Tip #6: Photograph a particular page in the yellow pages so you can keep the addresses & phone numbers with you
- Tip #7: Photograph potentially illegal situations for use as evidence later on
- Tip #8: Photograph Chinese food menus or complex SKU#’s for on-the-go reference(not quite sure how these wound up together, btw…)
- Tip #9: Photograph a recipe before going shopping for ingredients
- Tip #10: Photograph your rental car to document pre-existing dents, dings, etc.
- Tip #11: Photograph yourself when there’s no mirror available
Each link provides a sample picture and some more detail, so by all means – click around.
For the record, I think some of these are cooler than others. The “photograph some data and zoom in on the picture to read it” suggestions (#2, #6, #8, and #9) seem better served by having an iPhone, Blackberry, or some such device. But if you don’t already own one of those, a camera can make due as described above.
