What kind of cameras are compatible with a portable photo printer?

It depends on the portable photo printer, most photo printers work with any digital camera with a USB connection. Old style cameras and disposable cameras will most likely not be compatible with a portable photo printer.


What are the key differences between a CMOS sensor and a MOS sensor, and how do these differences impact the performance of digital cameras?

A CMOS sensor and a MOS sensor are both types of image sensors used in digital cameras. The key difference between them is in how they are manufactured. CMOS sensors have additional circuitry integrated on the sensor itself, allowing for faster readout speeds and lower power consumption compared to MOS sensors. This can result in better performance in terms of image quality, speed, and battery life in digital cameras using CMOS sensors.

How do pictures get into a camera?

Assuming the question is in reference to digitalcameras:A digital camera works much like a traditional, analog, camera: a lens (typically a complex set of lenses) projects an image of the subject onto a photo-sensitive pane. In traditional cameras, this pane holds the photo-sensitive film material. In digital cameras, the film is replaced with a CCD or CMOS sensor module. This module captures the projection and can be read out with values for color and brightness.

When was the CMOS made for the computer?

If you mean the CMOS setup, then it was likely made around 1984. That was the year that IBM released the AT computer. That was the first to make use of CMOS settings. If you mean CMOS-based logic chips, they have been around since at least the the mid 1970's.
