Answer
The Fatwa that we viewed on the www.shariahboard.com website clearly states that usage of a digital camera is not permissible. We concur with this ruling.
While we do not know Mufti Nawal Saheb personally, the biography given on the website shows him to be a very senior, high ranking Mufti, who studied under great luminaries and benefited from their company.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
