The pluses and minuses of digital camera technology in relation to more traditional film based cameras.
Traditional film- Plus: better quality, durable, element of suprise.
Minus: longer to process, have to pay for photos that you do not want or like.
Digital camera- Plus: get to choose which photos you want, can edit the photos before you print, photos can go on your computer.
Minus: no element of suprise
Some of the ways digital images can be stored transferred and manipulated using other communication technology are: fax, scanner, video camera, cellphone, web cam.
The ethical issues that may arise with image capturing devices are: no consent to take the photo of the person and then then public can access it. This is not right especially if it affects the person who is captured.
Digital images could/ are being used in occupational therapy practice. For example digital images are sometimes used to show the client how they transfer and to see what their technique is like. They can be used on cards of how to sequence a task or of a specific technique. Digital images can even be used in documentation to give a better understanding to other professionals reading the client notes or to give a over all picture within a funding/ modification application.

Digital cameras can either have digital or optical zoom. Optical zoom is better quality especially when enlarging an image and digital zoom is a low quality image as the zoom just crops the image to a smaller size, therefore the image is quite blurry when enlarging.
