Re: Perhaps in 1993.

more like 1975 - from Wiki In 1975 Kodak engineer Steven Sasson invented the first digital still camera, which uses a Fairchild 100 x 100 pixel CCD. By 1986 Kodak had developed a sensor with 1.4 million pixels

But sometimes it isn't number of pixels that is important as their dynamic range
