An illustrated
history of the
camera
1558: Camera Obscura
It was the first optical device
to project an image of its
surroundings on a screen.
Although some evidence of its
existence dates back to 1000
AD but it was perfected in
1558 by Giambattista della
Porta.
1836: Daguerreotypes
Louis Daguerre invented a
new camera to capture a
permanent image on a screen.
It used a process of coating a
copper plate with silver which
was later treated by iodine
vapor to make it light
sensitive.
The projected image was then developed by mercury vapor
which was later fixed with a solution of ordinary salt.
1841: Alexander Wolcott's Camera
This camera got the first US
patent for photography. The
camera used daguerreotype
plate placed in front of a
focusing system using
concave mirror to project
images. A sliding shutter
prevented further exposure
after capture.
1861: Panoramic camera
The first wide angle lens
camera used a 76 mm lens.
The lens was made up of two
hollow glass hemispheres. The
spherical lens was filled with
water that would project an
image onto a curved plate.
The flap in the front had to be lifted to capture an image.
1888: KODAK
George Eastman pioneered
photographic films in camera.
His first camera was called
"Kodak". It used a simple box
having a fixed focus lens and a
single shutter speed.
It had enough film for around
a hundred photographs.
The detachable film could be taken out to be processed in a
factory and a new film could be reloaded in the camera.
1900: Brownie
This was the camera which
revolutionized the photo
industry for the public. It was
a basic cardboard box camera
with a simple meniscus lens
which captured images on a
film role.
It was priced at $1 and was
extremely simple to use.
1913: LEICA
The Leica was the first
practical 35 mm camera that
used standard cinema 35 mm
film built by Oskar Barnack in
1913.
It transports photographic
film horizontally, extending
frame size to 24×36 mm, with
a 2:3 aspect ratio. It was best
suited for landscape photos.
1933: Exakta
First single-lens reflex
camera (SLR) for 127 roll
film. In later models it
pioneered the first built-in
flash socket, activated by the
shutter.
In 1936, the first SLR for 35mm film was built.
1939: Argus C3
Best-selling 35mm camera in
the world for three decades.
It used a simple diaphragm
shutter built into the camera
body allowing it to use
interchangeable lenses without
the need for a complex focal
plane shutter.
The rangefinder was separate from the viewfinder and was
coupled to the lens through a series of gears located on the
outside of the camera body.
1948: Polaroid
World's first instant-picture
camera. It used a patented
chemical process to produce
finished positive prints from
the exposed negatives in under
a minute. In spite of the high
price, the camera remains one
of the top-selling cameras of
all time.
1949: Disposable Camera
A company called Photo-Pac produced a cardboard camera
beginning in 1949 which shot 8 exposures and was mailed-in for
processing.
1980: Sony Mavica
It was one of the first analog
camera. In essence it was a
video movie camera that
recorded single frames, 50 per
disk in field mode and 25 per
disk in frame mode. The image
quality was considered equal
to that of then-current
televisions.
1988: Fuji DS-1P
It was the first true digital camera that recorded images as a
computerized file. Recorded images to a 16 MB internal
memory card powered by a battery to retain data.
1991: Kodak DCS 100
First commercially available
digital single-lens reflex
camera (DSLR) camera.
Aimed at the photo journalism
market & worked well for the
field.
Was mounted on a Nikon F3
body and released by Kodak in
May 1991.
1999: Nikon D1
At 2.74 megapixel this
camera was the first digital
SLR developed entirely by a
major manufacturer, and
affordable cost which was
targeted at professional
photographers and high-
end consumers.
