The History of Photography
Photography dates back to over two hundred years ago when Thomas Wedgewood, an early experimenter of photography, wanted to create permanent images from cameras. In 1790, he was able to accomplish making a shadow image which made him the first real person to invent photography. In 1826, a French inventor named Joseph Nicephore Niepce invented heliography which allowed him to make the worlds oldest surviving photo. In 1831, a photographic process called the daguerreotype process of photography. A British inventor named William Henry Talbot invented the calotype Process in 1841. The calotype process was an early photographic process in which the photo was created on paper and was coated with silver iodine.
In 1851, Frederick Scott Archer invented the collodian process. The collodian process had almost replaced the daguerreotype process by the late 1850's. The 1880's was a huge point in history for photography. George Eastman had invented the Eastman Kodak Company. The Eastman Kodak company was and still is one of the biggest camera companies. George Eastman popularized the use of roll film in 1884 which was basis for motion picture film. Photography continually got popular in 20th century and has changed the world.
