SLR Camera Simulator is a free to use web tool that simulates the results of a digital SLR camera. The tool helps you to gain insight into how your adjusted camera options affect the end result – your photographs. By providing you with a moving picture and letting you adjust various photograph parameters such as brightness and aperture settings, the web app effectively serves its purpose.

Usage

One of the best features of SLR Camera Simulator is that you can start using it right after visiting the website. You do not need to register for any accounts or install anything; all you need to do is visit the site with a Flash-enabled web browser. There you will see a picture of a playground with a moving object. This moving object helps serve as a reference when you are trying to judge the photo results.

Under this picture, you will find the adjustable controls. These controls correspond to various settings on a SLR camera.

These controls let you adjust the SLR’s lighting levels, distance from object, lens’s focal length, ISO value, aperture settings, and shutter speeds. While selecting between the aperture or shutter properties, you will first need to set a priority using the buttons located in the center. Your adjusted settings appear under the photograph digitally as they normally would on the display of a DSLR.

When you are ready, you can click on the “Snap Photo” button located at the most-right of the controls section.
Camera-simulator-6
This action will take a snapshot of the photograph and display it to you in the same interface. By looking at the results, you can judge if the settings you selected have the effect you desired. To better understand what each of the settings mean, you can scroll down the website and find definitions of each SLR control.
