While younger people may not remember, those in their 30s and older can still remember when cameras had film. Certainly, there are still cameras that rely on film, but for the most part cameras no longer need film to take pictures.
It was a difficult time when a camera needed film because you had to make sure you always had film—many of us remember having to run to the store for film because we suddenly found out we had none on hand and one of the kids had a special activity in which they were participating.
The first digital cameras did not cause too much of a stir because they were expensive, large and difficult to use. The early models had a focus more toward the professional or amateur photographer who was used to having to tote heavy photography equipment including tripods.
That meant they had one less thing to carry now—film and flashes since digital cameras also have a built in flash instead of the extern flash that powered most 35mm cameras. For a short time, one could also find a few disposable digital cameras but apparently, they did not gain much popularity, probably because of their cost when compared to a 35mm disposable camera. Most people who are looking for disposable cameras are looking for cost, something that maybe they can give the kids for a school trip and not have to worry if they lost it.
Of course, the first digital cameras also needed a special printer but as innovations and improvements occurred, they became compatible with home computers and printers. Instead of taking film to the store for processing, a photographer had to insert the memory card or USB device into the home computer or printer and download everything onto the computer. You could then print the photos from the computer, copy them to CD or order prints online.
It was more efficient and economical, not to count time saving. Moving forward now digital cameras are becoming smaller with higher megapixels and lower cost thus making them affordable for many more people. Memory cards are also becoming more economical, in some cases only $25 or less for a card that can hold about 500 pictures. Who knows what the future holds for the digital camera? It is certain that we will see many more innovations before the end of the 21st century.
