Every digital camera requires an image sensor to function and our camera comes uses a professional grade image sensor called a charge-coupled device (CCD).

A CCD helps turn what the X10 Camera sees into a digital image by taking the original light and breaking it down into a series of pixels. Like any camera, it uses a series of lenses that focus light in order to create an image of a scene, recording the light electronically and then converting it into digital data which then forms the image.

CCD sensors consistently produce high-quality, low-noise images. The technology involved has proven itself to be stable and reliable, and remains the standard in the field of digital video recording.
