A CMOS (Complementary Metal–Oxide–Semiconductor) is a type of metal–oxide–semiconductor that is one of two types of sensors used in digital cameras, the other being CCDA CCD (Charge-Coupled Device) is an integrated circuit containing an array of linked or coupled capacitors and it is one of two types of sensors used in digital cameras and other optical devices. The other one being CMOS. CCDs are considered to the older technology and although most current digital cameras use CMOS sensors they are still widely used and many photographers seek out older cameras with CCD sensors because of their colour and image characteristics. CCD image sensors are widely used in professional, medical, and scientific applications where high-quality image data is required CCDs use a global shutter, which exposes the entire image simultaneously. This can lead to blur if any motion occurs in the image during exposure, but a high shutter speed prevents this problem. Whereas CMOS sensors are equipped with ‘rolling shutters,’ which expose different parts of the frame at different points in time. This can lead to skew, wobble and partial exposure in photographs. CCD sensors create low noise images but consume 100 times more power than a similar CMOS sensor. . CMOS sensors are equipped with “rolling shutters,” which expose different parts of the frame at different points in time. This can lead to skew, wobble, and partial exposureThe amount of light that reaches the film (or camera sensor). It determines how light or dark an image is. The exposure of an image is determined by the aperture, shutter speed, and film speed (ISO). During exposure, the sensors or chemicals on the film in analogue models, are subjected to the light outside the camera for a certain time. in photographs. However, neither technology is a clear winner over the other in overall image quality.
CMOS sensors consume around 100 times less power than equivalent CCDA CCD (Charge-Coupled Device) is an integrated circuit containing an array of linked or coupled capacitors and it is one of two types of sensors used in digital cameras and other optical devices.

CMOS cameras are now more popular and currently used in most modern digital cameras. CMOS sensors can be fabricated on a standard silicon production line and are therefore less expensive compared to CCDA CCD (Charge-Coupled Device) is an integrated circuit containing an array of linked or coupled capacitors and it is one of two types of sensors used in digital cameras and other optical devices.
