 How Does a Camera Capture an Image? A camera captures a digital image and records it electronically. But how does this work? Pixels, or picture elements, collect light that take the form of electrons and output circuits that convert the electrons into a voltage. More electrons are collected when the light gets brighter, and that creates a higher voltage. Voltage is recorded by the "memory" of a digital camera, or known as a memory card or other storage device. The more pixels, the higher the resolution of the picture because it records more light information. The color information is from the color filters that cover all the pixels. Once that process is over, it is all saved onto the memory and you have your image.
