(CF) card stores digital photographs 503CW with a digital camera back A 'digital camera' is a camera that takes video or still photographs, or both,
digitally by recording images on a light-sensitive sensor. Many compact digital still cameras can record sound and moving video as well as
still photographs. In the Western market, digital cameras outsell their
35 mm film counterparts. Digital cameras can include features that are not found in film cameras, such as
displaying an image on the camera's screen immediately after it is recorded, the
capacity to take thousands of images on a single small memory device, the
ability to record video with sound, the ability to edit images, and deletion of
images allowing re-use of the storage they occupied. Digital cameras are incorporated into many devices ranging from PDAs and mobile
phones (called camera phones) to vehicles. The Hubble Space Telescope and other
astronomical devices are essentially specialised digital cameras.
