How it's used
Refers specifically to images stored in a digital format rather than physical prints or film. While technically accurate, it is a formal term often used in technical or professional contexts like photography, graphic design, or medical imaging. In casual daily conversation, people are much more likely to use the loanword 相 or 圖片 to describe digital files.

Common mistake
Do not confuse this with the term 數碼相機 which refers to the camera itself. Beginners often use this term when they simply mean a digital photo, which sounds overly clinical or academic in a casual setting.
