A digital camera (or digicam 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. In the Western market, digital cameras outsell their 35 mm
film counterparts.
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.
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.
Compact cameras are designed to be small and portable and are particularly
suitable for casual and "snapshot" use, thus are also called point-and-shoot
camera. The smallest, generally less than 20 mm thick, are described as
subcompacts or "ultra-compacts". Compact cameras are usually designed to be easy
to use, sacrificing advanced features and picture quality for compactness and
simplicity; images can usually only be stored using lossy compression (JPEG).
Most have a built-in flash usually of low power, sufficient for nearby subjects.
Live preview is almost always used to frame the photo. They may have limited
motion picture capability. Compacts often have macro capability, but if they
have zoom capability the range is usually less than for bridge and DSLR cameras.
They have a greater depth of field, allowing objects within a large range of
distances from the camera to be in sharp focus.Source
