Larger, professional cameras may have 3 separate sensors, each being used only to capture a particular color, such as red, green and blue. These products have the advantage of being marketed to a public that is willing to pay more for specific features. Such an ability actually offers at least three times the accuracy of images being captured, making sure that colors never bleed on adjacent areas and contrast is not compromised. | Larger, professional cameras may have 3 separate sensors, each being used only to capture a particular color, such as red, green and blue.

Professional cameras also offer more accurate HDR or high dynamic range capabilities, being clearly designed for 10-bit per colour output. Regardless of your immediate requirements, as these may still imply a standard 8-bit per colour, it is good to be able to use the camera for different tasks in the future or for experimentation. A clearly specified HDR accuracy may also imply better overall capturing capabilities and a better image processor. | |||
