History of the Camera! Years: 1866-1875 By: Jonathan Lebel
Innovations • Practical methods to sensitize silver halide film to green and then orange light was discovered in 1873 and then one again in 1884 by Hermann Vogel. • By the 1870’s, the wet developing process gave way to a new innovation called the gelating dry plate. • The chemicals were no longer needed on the site in the new famous photographers tent. • Treated plates could be taken out of the field and brought back to a black room for processing.
Iterations • 1865 – Flash powder was created. • 1875 Werner Siemensconstructs selen cells for photometric purposes. • 1865 C.A Steinheil - constructs a periscope with an aperture of 75 mm • 1865 H.A. Steinheil calculates the Aplanat • 1873 – Colors for photography were made.
Social Influences • Laing designs the Motorscope, something close to the one of Shaw's Stereostrope. • Beale 'animates' pictures he had drawn, using his invention, the Chorentoscope. • This very simple optical toy is hand-held and is cranked by a small handle, which draws a lanternslide through the apparatus using a small gear.
Connected Societal • The plates contained carbon pigments of red, blue, and yellow. Du Hauronpublishes Les Couleursen Photographie, describing subtractive color photography. Hauron used different filters to photograph his scenes and then printed the negatives on thin sheets of bichromated gelatin.
