Digital  Camera What is a digital camera? What’s the difference between digital cameras and film cameras? A digital camera (also digicam or camera for short) is a camera that takes video or still photographs, or both, digitally by recording images via an electronic image sensor. Many compact digital still cameras can record sound and moving video as well as still photographs. Most 21st century cameras are digital. Digital cameras can do things film cameras cannot: displaying images on a screen immediately after they are recorded, storing thousands of images on a single small memory device, recording video with sound, and deleting images to free storage space. The Image Sensor-- CCD English Fullname：Charge-coupled Device，Chinese Fullname：电荷耦合元件（CCD图像传感器） In a CCD for capturing images, there is a photoactive（光敏） region (an epitaxial layer of silicon), and a transmission region made out of a shift register (the CCD, properly speaking). CCD是一种半导体（semiconductor ）器件，能够把光学影像转化为数字信号。 CCD上植入的微小光敏物质称作像素（Pixel）。一块CCD上包含的像素数越多，其提供的画面分辨率也就越高。CCD的作用就像胶片一样，但它是把图像像素转换成数字信号。 How does CCD work in DC? Digital color cameras generally use a Bayer mask（拜尔滤镜 ） over the CCD. Each square of four pixels has one filtered（被过滤的） red, one blue, and two green (the human eye is more sensitive to green than either red or blue). The result of this is that luminance（亮度）information is collected at every pixel, but the color resolution（色彩分辨率 ） is lower than the luminance resolution（感光分辨率 ）. Compact digital cameras（卡片机） and Digicams typically have much smaller sensors than a Digital SLR（单反机） and are thus less sensitive to light and inherently more prone to noise.
