[Disruptive Innovation] Digital Photography Originally, Instant Photography, Now Increasingly All Chemical Photography [Notes] 
Early digital cameras suffered from low picture quality and resolution and long shutter lag. Quality and resolution are no longer major issues and shutter lag is much less than what it used to be. The convenience of small memory cards and portable hard drives that hold hundreds or thousands of pictures, as well as the lack of the need to develop these pictures, also helped. Digital cameras have a high power consumption (but several light weighted battery packs can provide enough power for thousands of pictures). Cameras for classic photography are stand-alone devices.
