In 1951, the first video tape recorder captured live images from television cameras by converting the information into electrical and saving the information onto magnetic tape. Until NASA converted analog to digital signals with their space probes to map the surface of the moon. In 1981, Sony released the Sony Mavica electronic, the camera which was the first commercial electronic camera. In 1986, Kodak scientists invented the world’s first mega pixel sensor, capable of recording 1.4 million pixels that could produce a 5×7-inch digital photo-quality print. In 1990, Kodak developed the Photo CD system, and then released the first professional digital camera system (DCS) in 1991. The “DYCAM MODEL 1″ was also released in 1990. This “Dycam Model 1″ B&W dig cam was the world’s first entirely digital consumer-used camera
The first digital cameras for the consumer-level market that worked with a home computer via a serial cable were the Apple Quick Take 100 camera (February 17 , 1994), the Kodak DC40 camera (March 28, 1995), the Casio QV-11 (with LCD monitor, late 1995), and Sony’s Cyber-Shot Digital Still Camera (1996). And finally the FUJI In-Printer Camera in the year 1998 through 2000 is the world’s first digital camera with an integral printer.
