HISTORY OF PHOTOGRAPHY
Started when camera
was invented.
its origins traced
back to the artistic
techniques of artists .
 used by artists to
trace images easily in
the 16th century.
 Boxlike camera with a
pinhole on one side and
a glass screen on the
other .
Camera Obscura
In 1727, Johan Heinrich Schulze of
Germany established the basic concept
of photography when he discovered
that silver is darkened by exposure to
light.
 In 1802, Thomas Wedgewood,
succeeded in producing images
of leaves on leather that he had
treated with silver salts but was
not able to make it permanent.
In 1826 French inventor
Joseph Niépce created
the first surviving
permanent photograph (in
black & white) using a
camera obscura but died
in 1833 unable to perfect
the technology.
View from the
Window at Le Gras
was the first
successful
permanent
photograph,
created in
1826.
One of the
first fixed
photographic
images in
1827 by
Niépce .
 In 1837, Louis Jacques
Mande Daguerre announced to the
world his “Daguerreotype method”
which was the first practicable
method of obtaining permanent
images .
Daguerreotype
Images
Pictures like these were
created with silver-
coated plates and treated
with iodine vapor to
make them sensitive to
light.
Negative image by Talbot
invented in 1835.
In 1839, William
Henry Fox Talbot
announced a
process of
producing negatives
on paper from
which positive
copies were then
made.
In 1851, Frederick
Scott Archer
introduced the
collodion, or wet–
plate process in
photography.
Wet-plate cameras derived
their name from the light-
sensitive chemical coating
applied to the photographic
plate used while wet.
Eastman improved this by using a type of plastic called
celluloid instead of paper, producing the first
photographic film.
In 1880’s, George Eastman devised a long
paper strip that could replace the glass plate.
In 1878, the dry plate was perfected using a
gelatin instead of collodion coating.
George Eastman –
invented the Kodak
box camera in 1888.
The Kodak was the
first camera
specifically designed
to use rolled film.
In 1935, the 1st electronic flash unit
became available.
In 1929, flashbulbs were introduced.
In 1924, the 1st commercial 35-mm
camera, the Leica, was produced.
In 1942, the 1st color negative film
called Kodacolor became available.
In 1935, Eastman Kodak Company also
introduced Kodachrome, a color
transparency film.
Polaroid Instant Camera
In 1948, Dr.
Edwin H. Land’s
Polaroid
Corporation
introduced
instant
photography
using a special
camera & self-
developing film.
Single-lense-reflex
camera
Auto focus camera
In the late 1990’s, digital
photography was widely used in
advertising & graphic design.
Digicams are continually used by
the public up to the present.
In the 1970’s and 80’s, cameras
continually improved.
In 1963, instant color film became
available.
