History of Digital Cameras by Jacket
The development of the digital cameras was first started by Eugene Lally from jet propulsion Laboratory after presenting a design of the first digital camera in the year 1961. In 1972 an engineer working with Texas Instruments by the name Willis Addock came up with a camera that did not require films to record the image. The camera was not digital but it used analog technology to record the picture. It was not until after 1975 when Steven Sasson of Eastman Kodak Company produced the first version of cameras.
The camera was not one of those sleek devices we are used to currently. Since there was not literature on the development of cameras, Steven Sasson had to work from scratch using components from other cameras. The camera weighed 8 pounds and was the size of traditional toasters. However, his discovery led to the development of today’s digital camera, which has incorporated other technologies including the Lcd Screen. He used CCD chips by Fairchild released in 1973, a lens obtain from a Kodak movie camera and analog/digital converter from Motorola Inc.
The Pros and Cons of Using Digital Cameras
Starting with the pros, cameras have some benefits over the analog film models. For one, you do not need to buy films and waste a lot of time developing them in a studio. Digital cameras allows you to shoot photos using and image sensor after which they are stored on electronic storage devices like a memory card. Printing can be done anywhere using a computer or by directly connecting the cameras to a printer via a USB cable. This technology allows you to take as many pictures as you wish provided you have enough memory space on your storage media. Another benefit you have is the ability to edit or delete a picture before printing out, an option which was not available with the analog modes.
Although the digital cameras are considered a milestone in technological advancement, they have some drawbacks too. The major one is the initial costs incurred when buying the digital camera. The cameras come at high prices, which some view as exorbitant. Limited knowledge on computers and photo editing software also makes it hard for some people to adapt the technology. Some of the photos produced by the digital cameras require editing done using software like Photoshop which is a bit complex for some people. Authenticity is also affected if you opt for the digital cameras; images can be altered using software therefore changing the original appearance of the image.
