Cameras, capturing still or moving images, consist of a lens that focuses light from the scene onto an image capture mechanism housed within a camera body. Images are recorded on electronic sensors or photographic film, with digital cameras using CCD or CMOS sensors to store data in memory cards. Cameras designed for multiple images are movie or ciné cameras, while single-image capturing devices are known as still cameras. The lens quality significantly impacts image quality, and various types of lenses suit different photography styles; wide-angle lenses are popular for architecture, normal lenses for street photography, and telephoto lenses for sports and wildlife. Focusing methods include fixed focus, scale focus, rangefinder, single-lens reflex (SLR), twin-lens reflex (TLR), and view cameras. Modern cameras often employ autofocus systems to automatically set the camera's focus. Some experimental cameras, such as plenoptic cameras, use post-focusing techniques or plenoptics technology for image capture. Exposure control relies on aperture size, shutter speed, and shutter design (leaf or focal plane). Leaf shutters are located within the lens structure, while focal plane shutters utilize cloth curtains or metal plates to expose film.
