Bridge cameras emerged in the Eighties, positioned between point and shoot compacts and the larger and more complex SLRs. 

Much has changed since, but bridge cameras are still a good choice for photographers who want a straightforward camera with a versatile zoom lens, all in one convenient package. 

They open up a greater variety of subjects – close and far – and come into their own in wildlife and (amateur) sports photography.

Many bridge cameras come with long zoom ranges, which are all given in their 35mm equivalent (or what the focal range would be on a full-frame DSLR). 

Anything below 36mm is considered “wide angle” and the lower this number, the more it allows you to get into the frame. With 24mm focal length, for example, you can get a decent shot of the interior of a medium-sized room.

By Robert Coleman When you think of rodents, there’s a high chance that you immediately think of rats, mice, squirrels, and other small creatures that scurry around their homes. While most people hate the thought of these rodents coming anywhere near their beloved houses, it’s safe to say that there is one rodent that is becoming more and more popular. As the largest rodent that this world has to offer, the capybara is around the same size as your average dog.

By Jessica Miller Thanksgiving is an enjoyable time for us all, but less so for our pets. There are a few things we need to be mindful of while we’re enjoying the holiday, in order to keep our pets safe. A rabbit in the backyard might be far enough away from the celebrations to not care, but for your dogs, cats, and hamsters in the same room as you, Thanksgiving can be a potentially dangerous time of year.
