1. HISTORY OF THE CAMERA! VIRGIL

2. CAMERA OBSURA Was the first camera. Alhazen invented this idea around 1000 ad also it was used in ancient Greece and in ancient china. Also the first camera that was small and portable enough to be useful enough for photography was built by Johann Zahn in 1685, though it would be around 150 years before it became a reality.

3. OTHER TYPES DAGUERREOTYPE Louis Daguerre and Joseph Nicéphore Niépce (Daguerre's partner, Also died before the camera was completed) was first practical photographic type. Image developed by mercury vapor and strong salt, Then treated with iodine vapor to make is sensitive to light(1836) CALOTYPES Henry fox Talbot perfected a different process in 1840 using calotypes with a sensitized plate or sheet of paper placed in front of the viewing screen to record the image just as the daguerreotype and Zahn's model.

4. DRY PLATES In 1855 Désiré van Monckhoven invented collodion dry plates but it wasn’t until 1871 when the invention of gelatin dry plate by Richard Leach Maddox that rivaled wet plates in speed and quality. These took higher quality than previous camera’s.

5. ADVANCEMENTS KODAK Film photography was first pioneered by George Eastman. Started with manufacturing in1885 then switched to celluloid and produced his first camera “Kodak” in1888 :Cheaper,handle smaller, took film. celluloid BIRTH OF FILM Despite advances in low-cost photography made possible by Eastman, plate cameras still offered better prints and remained popular to the 20th century. Against roll film cameras, many cheap plate cameras from this era were equipped with magazines to hold many plates a time. These cameras made a big advancement because they were lower in cost and much smaller.

6. FURTHER ADVANCEMENTS 35 MM Oskar Barnack who was leading research and development at Leitz. wanted to build a compact camera HOW IT WAS BETTER capable of making high- quality enlargements. Took pictures faster,more convenient.

7. TLRS AND SLRS TLR Twin-lens reflex camera. Has two objective lens all TLRs are film cameras, most often u.A primary advantage of the TLR is in its mechanical simplicity as compared to the more common single- lens reflex cameras 120 film, long-exposure photographs. SLR A single-lens reflex (SLR) camera compact SLR which used a 127 roll film. Many of the advantages of SLR cameras derive from viewing and focusing the image through the attached lens. Most other types of cameras do not have this function.

8. INSTANT CAMERAS!! INSTANT CAMERAS While conventional cameras were becoming better and more popular a new type of camera was released complete different, Polaroid model 95 was it. It advancements were: Generates a developed picture, Develop them very fast. AUTOMATION The first camera to feature automatic exposure was the as the selenium light meter-equipped, fully automatic Super Kodak Six- 20. In 1938 but was very expensive. So the next advancement was 1960 German Mec 16 SB subminiature which was the first camera to have a light meter behind the lens (was more accurate).seleniumlight meterGermanMec 16 SBsubminiature

9. DIGITAL CAMERAS CANON RC-701. First electronic camera to make it to the market It had four dedicated interchangeable lenses and also offered an adapter for 35mm lenses.:It could capture 1, 2, 5, or 10 frames per second much fast and now by pixels. Was digital. SONY MAVICA Magnetic Video Camera the first commercial electronic still camera. It was not a digital camera though Also the pictures were viewed on a television which was new.:one of the first to try and do digital got closer than anyone before.
