Camera Interview

I interviewed three people about how much they knew about cameras, editing, etc. I wanted to see if age affected the knowledge about cameras. I took three different random people ages fifteen, thirty-two, and fifty-four; and asked them a couple questions to see how much they knew.

-When asked on a scale one through ten how much she knew about cameras fifteen year old Heather Morgan replied “about an seven and a half.”
When asked the question how much do you use a camera, she replied “I use it quite often.”
I asked if she knew more would she use her camera more than she already does, her reply was “probably.”
Heather was asked would she be interested in learning more, (laughing) replied “probably not.”
When asked do you know about animating and editing pictures, Heather replied “uh yeah sure but not a lot.”
Then I asked if she would like to know more, and her reply was “sure.”
So here is a video on how to use photobucket.com on ehow.com



-When asked on a scale one through ten how much she knew about cameras thirty-two year old Kimberly Williams said “two.”
When asked the question how much do you use a camera, her reply was “not often.”
I asked if she knew more would she use her camera more than she already does, she said “yes.”
Kim was asked would she be interested in learning more, in reply the answer was “um no.”
When asked do you know about animating and editing pictures, Kim said  “no.”
Then I asked if she would like to know more, and her reply was “not really.”

-When asked on a scale one through ten how much she knew about cameras fifty-four year old Murley Stuart replied “about a four.”
When asked the question how much do you use a camera, her reply was “she buys a disposable one when need for important events/about every two years.”
I asked if she knew more would she use her camera more than she already does, she said “no.”Murley was later asked would she be interested in learning more, in reply the answer was “no.”
When asked do you know about animating and editing pictures, she said  “no.”
Then I asked if she would like to know more, and her reply was “no.”

In conclusion, overall my hypothesis was right. Younger people know more because they grew up learning it. Older people never had the variety of cameras we do today and so they never cared to learn about the new technology of cameras.
