  1. History of Photography By Tanisha Angwin

  2. Pinhole Camera • A pinhole camera is a simple camera without a lens. • It has a small hole in the side, light passes through it and is projected onto the other side of the box. • The Smaller the hole the sharper the image.

  3. Joseph Niepce This Frenchman was a teacher and in the military until he invented the worlds first photographer, born in 1765 he was most noted as one of the inventors of photography. The camera was invented in 1826 in St-Loup-de-Varennes, France. He called it ‘Obscura’ and it was made of two wooden boxes, one had a lensand the other a ground-glass screen. He formed a partnership in 1829 with Daguerre after his father's death.

  4. Louis Daguerre • Louis spent his early life working in theatre and later was a french artist and physicist. He had an interest in the concept of Heliography and that soon lead to his partnership with Joseph Niepce. • After Niepce’s death, Daguerre accidentally found that Mercury vapour would develop invisible pictures on a silver plate that was treated with iodine vapour.

  5. William Henry Fox Talbot William Henry Fox Talbot, or just Henry Fox Talbot, was a british inventor who created the calotype process. He studied mathematics, astronomy, chemistry, botany, philosophy, philology, Egyptology and art history. These all helped with the creation of this type of photography.

  6. Richard Leach Maddox • He invented Gelatin- silver Halide Emulsion. He used the wet Collodian process but suffered from the fumes. Then he invented the Emulsion method. It had many advantages such as; it could be used after set and dried, plates could be prepared in advance and it made mass production a possibility. • He was only one of the people working in the field of emulsion technology.

  7. George Eastman • Founder of the Kodak organization. • He wasn’t happy with the amount of equipment used to develop photographs. He started working with the Gelatin emulsion. • In 1888 the first Kodak camera with film went on the market. • His Kodak company continued to develop in all fields of photgraphy.

  8. Digital Photography • The first attempt at building a digital camera was in 1975 by Steven Sasson who worked for Eastman Kodak. • Digital photography is a form of photography that uses electronic photo detectors focused by the lens. • The files are digitalized and can be kept on a computer as a file
