The history of the camera, it all started in 1816 with Nicephore Niepce made his first camera and a piece of paper coated in silver chloride, but sadly due to over exposure to light the photograph is now entirely black. Four years later Niepce used a sliding wooden box camera made by Parisian opticians Charles and Vincent Chevalier. Niepce coated each photo with Bitumen of Judea only one of those photographs has survived. Niepce died in 1833, after his death his partner Louis Daguerre took over with experimenting. By 1837 he had created the first practical photographic process, which he dubbed as the Daguerreotype and publicly unveiled it in 1839. In 1871 Richard Leach Maddox crearred gelatin dry plates which made it faster and had better

    There first invention produced was the Technicolor System 1 Additive Color, which I’m sorry to say flopped massively due to the unfortunate screening of The Gulf Between in 1917 which only a few frames remain of this film today. This was the first public premier of the technology and was disastrous. The film was captured through two separate filters red and green and the light through those two filters was captured on a single reel of film, when processed this negative had red and green information captured on a black and white reel, when this was processed the reel was placed into a projector and then threw red and green filters. To project the image an adjustable prism that had to manually lined up by the projectionist as two separate images formed on the projection screen this did not work as planned as the projectionist failed to line up the images correctly.

    Film cameras have been in the process of developing since 1664-1666 when Sir Issac Newton discovered light is composed of different colours and in 1724 when Johann Heinrich Schulze discovered that silver nitrate darkened upon exposure. It was in 1814 when Joseph Neipce achieved the world’s first photographic image after eight hours of light exposure. As technology developed through the years, more advancement has been made to film photography thus gradually changing the way film cameras operate. When a camera records an image, it’s recording the visible light (or flash) reflecting off the objects in the camera’s view. The reflect light causes a chemical change in photographic film (chemical records. Light has its own color spectrum, the electro-magnetic spectrum where the primary colours are RGB (Red Green Blue). Packets of energy traveling via light are called photons. The amount of energy determines the length of the wave lengths of the colours, which in turn determines the colour. The energy in photons creates a chemical change in the photographic detectors th...

    The idea for photographing came around in 1814 when Joseph Niépce wanted an image of his son before he left for war. He succeeded in making the first camera in 1827, but the camera needed at least eight hours to produce one picture. Parisian Louis Daguerre invented the next kind of camera in 1839, who worked with Niépce for four years. His camera only needed fifteen to thirty minutes to produce a picture. Both Niécpe’s and Daguerre’s cameras made pictues on metal plates. In the same year Daguerre made his camera, an Englishman by the name of William Henry Fox Talbot made the first camera that photographed pictures on paper. The camera printed a reverse picture onto a negative and chemicals were needed to produce the photo up right. In 1861, color film came along and pictures were produced with color instead of being just black and white. James Clerk Maxwell is credited with coming up with color film, after he took the ...
