The document traces the history of photography from its beginnings in the 1820s with Nicephore Niepce's early experiments with capturing permanent images using asphalt and silver halide, to the introduction of the daguerreotype process in 1839. It then covers the development of the negative process, color photography, motion pictures, and the increasing accessibility of cameras to the public with inventions like the Kodak Brownie in 1888. The summary concludes with a brief overview of modern developments like digital cameras, camera phones, and light-field cameras that allow refocusing after capture.

1. THE HISTORY OF PHOTOGRAPHY

2. THE BEGINNING
1816
Nicephore Niepce made the first negative photograph in 1816 he made camera images on paper which
was coated in silver chloride but had trouble stopping the images darkening permanently whenever these
images were exposed to light.
1822
Nicephore Niepce after giving up on his silver halide problem moved over to bitumen of Judea (natural
asphalt) onto metal and glass this created the worlds first know permanent photograph that would not
disappear when exposed to light.
1826
Nicephore Niepce made what is now known as the earliest photograph from
nature it took him a minimum of eight hours of camera exposure and possibly a
few days.
1826-1833
Nicephore Niepce stopped working in his photography work as he was dyeing
and passed in 1833.

3. THE DAGUERRE PROCESS
1839
Louise Daguerre introduces his daguerreotype process, which makes very detailed permanent
photographs on silver-plated sheets of copper. The time took several minuets until he made
adjustments and it only took him seconds for a photograph it didn’t take long until the world
knew is process. At the same time Henry fox Talbot made a working process but it didn’t catch
on due to Daguerre’s being quicker and more detailed.

6. NEGATIVE PROCESS TO COLOUR
In 1841 Henry fox Talbot introduced his patented calotype paper negative
process and improved version of his old one which has an earlier process which
has a great big difference and needs less exposure time.
Seven years later 1848 Edmond Becquerel made the worlds very first full colour
photographs but they had a chance of disappearing while looking at them and
took the exposure time from hours to days.
In 1854 André Adolphe Eugene disderi uses a camera which was fitted with
multiple lenses that could photograph eight different poses on one large
negative. After printing on albumen paper, the images are cut apart and glued to
card size amounts.

7. ADDICTIVE COLOUR AND MOVEMENT
James Clerk Maxwell presented a projected addictive colour photograph. It uses separate
black and white photographs taken and projected through red, green and blue color filters.
The projected image is temporary but the set of three ‘colour separations is the first durable
colour photograph.
Eadweard Muybridge used a row of cameras and took pictures of a man and horse galloping
each picture is taken in sufficiently rapid sequence and would make up a picture that looks
like a short but real movie that could be used by a zoetrope. It is thanks to this we knew at the
time how a horse really moves.
The zoetrope spins
and you look through
a small hole and
gives the illusion of
movement.

8. 1888 MIRACLES
In 1888 after a long wait the public gets a camera that I easy to use and is made for the
general public and not just professional photographers who know what there doing. It is
known for starting off the camera world we have now as it was getting easier and easier for
people to take photographs.
Louis Le Prince makes the worlds first known motion picture on film to have ever been made
and revolutionized cameras. Round hay garden scene is the footage it is only a few seconds
long but is known as the first motion scene all thanks to prince.

9. 1900-1902 PHOTOGRAPHS AROUND THE WORLD
Kodak introduces another camera available to anyone in the world as it is another camera made for
the average man. It was named the brownie camera known for being inexpensive making it easy to
access.
In 1902 Arthur Korn discovered and made a way for us to send photographs
around to anywhere in the world with a receivable end.

10. 1907-1914 AUTOCHROME
In 1907 The Autochrome plate became very quickly the worlds first most successful and
easiest way at the time to be able to make your own photographs with ease. Though it did
make things look a bit unrealistic as the picture shows.
In 1914 the worlds very first known dramatic movie in
colour was presented all throughout the world which
reinvented film completely.

11. 1923 TO 1935
In 1923 a man by the name of Harold Edgerton invents the xenon flash lamp
which is known for strobe photography which is still used to this day.
In 1935 Becky sharp had made the first feature film made in full colour “three
strip” version of Technicolor is released.

12. 1939 TO 1947
In 1939 the view master was created and its reel of seven small stereoscopic image pairs
on kodachrome film are introduced it is thanks to th4e help of this we now have things like
3d movies or even better 3d televisions.
Later in 1947 Dennis Gabor invented holography it is a technique
which makes 3rd dimensional images appear right in front of the
audience and cannot be touched but shows a 3d image which
cant be touched as it is not in a physical form.

13. 1949-1957
During 1949 the contax s camera is introduce the first 35mm SLR camera with a Pena prism
eye level view finder.
Later in 1957 the first digital computer acquisition of scanned photographs which meant we
could now scan them to computers and people could keep them safe or have extra copies
and print of more for others.

14. 1963-1973
During 1963 Kodak introduces their newest camera the instamatic the instamatic was an in
expensive easy to use camera and introduced low cost photography and was a simple point
and click camera meaning very easy use.
Later in 1973 the company Fairchild Semiconductor released the first large image forming
CCD chip which featured 100 rows and 100 columns pixels.

15. 1994-1996
At the start of 1994 Nikon introduces the worlds first optical-stabilized lens which is used to
reduce blurring associated with the motion of a camera or other imaging device during
exposure.
Later in 1996 Eastman Kodak and Fujifilm with Agfaphoto and Konica introduce the advanced
photo system(APS) which was a format for still photography it had three image formats:
• H: High definition
• C: Classic
• P Panoramic

16. 1997-2000
In 1997 the first known picture from a mobile phone was publicly shared via a cell phone by
Philippe Kahn this was revolutionary as before this never before was such a small device able
to take photographs and its thanks to this we have it on things like our iPhones in even better
quality.
In 2000 J-SH04 introduced by j-phone the first commercially available mobile phone camera
that could take still pictures and could be shared to any one them who's phone supported that
format.

17. 2006-2011
In 2006 the company known as Dalsa produce a 111 megapixel CCD sensor the highest
resolution at that time.
In 2011 Lytro releases the first pocket-sized consumer light-field camera capable of refocusing
images after being take which was revolutionary due to the fact it means no more blurring
when taking photographs and means no more reshoots and every new photograph you take
will be blurred and no more re focusing on every new subject you photograph.
