Cameras - Casio VS-101

Time: 1987

Place: Tokyo, Japan

Details: The first analog electronic camera marketed to consumers may have been the Casio VS-101 in 1987. A notable analog camera produced the same year was the Nikon QV-1000C, designed as a press camera and not offered for sale to general users, which sold only a few hundred units. It recorded images in greyscale, and the quality in newspaper print was equal to film cameras. In appearance, it closely resembled a modern digital single-lens reflex camera. Images were stored on video floppy disks.
