Does a digital camera still use a lens shutter or focal plane shutter?
With the new technology in digital imaging and sensors, does a digital
camera utilize a physical lens shutter (or focal plane shutter in an SLR) to let the light passes to the sensor? Or, can the image sensor now be electronically turn on and off to allow for the light to register in the sensor? Thanks for info. |

That is why they have difficulty showing preview on LCD screen. Compact cameras have no problem with preview. Educated guess says they have no mechanical shutter. |

That is why your should avoid pointing the camera at the sun at any time. You can ruin the sensor. |

And some are not CMOS. |
