Digital Cameras

What is a Digital Camera?

In the late 1980s, digital cameras were introduced and revolutionized the art of photography. Digital cameras are battery operated, filmless cameras that work by focusing light from the lens onto a charge coupled device (CCD). The device then converts the light into electrical signals. The data is projected onto a grid of pixels, and each individual pixel is designated a color and brightness value. When all of the pixels are joined together they form the finished image. The images are stored in the camera's internal memory bank on a small removable memory card or floppy disk. You can look at the stored images on the camera's viewing screen.
