Nowadays we can capture photos with a portable camera and even with our phones .But do we know how it works and what’s the history behind of it?
What Is A Camera?
A camera is a device that takes and records visual input. It has a lens, a shutter, and a sensor . When we take a photo with a camera, the camera lens temporarily exposes the film strip to the light that passes through the lens. This exposure creates a latent picture by burning an impression into image. When a latent prints is caught, it can be developed into a negative, which we can put onto light-sensitive photo paper to generate a photo.
The First Camera ever! Who clicked the image of it?
In 1816, Nicephore Niepce successfully made a partial photograph using a camera he built, and a paper coated with silver chloride. Unfortunately, he couldn’t figure out how to remove the untreated silver chloride, meaning the image was eventually darkened by the light needed to view it. In the mid-1820s, Niepce used a new sliding wooden camera (created by Charles and Vincent Chevalier) to experiment with Bitumen of Judea. Only one of the photos from this experiment, View from the Window at Le Gras, has survived. Following Niepce’s death in 1833, Louise Daguerre continued to experiment with cameras, culminating in the first practical photographic process in 1837. Named the’ daguerreotype,’ it used iodine vapor-treated silver-plated copper to produce images. After its public debut in 1839, when the holotype started to bring photography to the masses, it was wildly successful. It was usually an activity unique to the upper classes to have portraits taken. For most working-class individuals, the price, and amount of time taken to create such works is unfair. The pace of the camera, which only increased as time went by, made it possible for professional portraits to be made available to all. So, that’s it for today, I hope you guys got some valuable information from this. Thanks for reading. Have a great day.
