A digital camera is basically a digital device that enables images to be captured. Digital camera images are stored electronically rather than on film. Although the digital camera is a recent addition to the world of photography, the concept of the possibility of a digital camera was begun in the 1950s.
A digital camera is basically a digital device that enables images to be captured. Digital camera images are stored electronically rather than on film. Although the digital camera is a recent addition to the world of photography, the concept of the possibility of a digital camera was begun in the 1950s.
The early concept of the digital camera was closely linked to television technology. It began with digital images being recorded on scanners and in the form of digital video signals. In 1951 broadcasting companies were recording images as electrical impulses and onto magnetic tape from their television cameras, and this paved the way for digital camera technology to begin. By 1956 electrical impulse recordings were common practise within film industry, and camera manufacturers began to dream of a digital camera device.
The first record of a patent for a type of digital camera was in 1972 when Texas Instruments patented a camera that did not require film. A pioneer in the history of digital camera was Steve Sasson, an engineer at Kodak. Central to this early concept of the digital camera, and still used by digital cameras today, is the Charged Coupled Device. Steve Sasson produced his first digital camera image in 1979. Although the digital camera image was less than perfect, it showed that the digital camera was a possibility. The first camera to be marketed was the Sony Mavica electronic still camera in 1981. It was not a true digital camera as the image was recorded on mini disc, and then attached to a television or video. It made public the possibility of a camera that stored images using techniques other than film. The first camera for general use with a computer was the Apple Quicktake 100 camera which appeared in1984. This showed the possible quality, and the desire for the digital camera was born.
It contained 1.4 million pixels and was suitable for a digital camera image measuring 5x7 inches. Kodak marketed the first readily available digital camera that met all standards, with the Kodak DC40 in 1995.
Kodak DC40 Digital Camera was formerly on early 1995
