Kodak developed the Photo CD system in 1990 and also proposed the first worldwide standard for defining color in the electronic digital environment of computers as well as computer peripherals. Kodak released the 1st professional digital cameras system (DCS) in 1991, aimed at photojournalists. It was a Nikon F-3 prepared by Kodak with a 1.3 mega pixel sensor.

Additionally, there are about ten several types of products like compact digital, bridge , SLRs and live scan to name few.

A digital camera saves pictures digitally by making use of a memory card rather than recording them on film, making digital photography exciting. The greatest benefit of digital product is that making photographs is both economical and quick because there is no film processing.

Another huge advantage of digital over film is direct synchronization with the computer. Today's camera can directly be linked to the personal computer and can be printed and shared easily. Traditional products rely entirely on chemical and mechanical processes. In digital however, no chemical reaction is required to create the image. It is done electronically.

The digital camera not only shoots photos, it also presents the added advantage of viewing your photos now, the ability to experiment without worrying about expense, the technology to fine-tune your photos, and the means to share your work instantaneously with anyone, anyplace in the world.
