Which device allows users to take pictures and store them digitally?

However, unlike film cameras, digital cameras can display images on a screen immediately after being recorded, and store and delete images from memory. Many digital cameras can also record moving videos with sound. Some digital cameras can crop and stitch pictures and perform other elementary image editing.

What type of device is digital camera?

A digital camera is an input device that captures images (and sometimes video) digitally. Digital cameras use an image sensor chip to capture the image. However, it can also be used as an output device.
