Introduction
Digital cameras allow computer users to take pictures and store the photographed images digitally instead of on traditional film.

A user then copies the pictures to a computer by inserting the floppy disk into a disk drive or the PC Card into a PC Card slot (Chambers and Norton 134).

Because of it’s functionally, it is an ideal camera for mobile users such as real estate agents, insurance agents, and general contractors.
