The Life of a Kodak Camera (disposable) By: Morgan, Sarah, Jake, & Kyle Research and Development ● A company called Photo-Pac produced a cardboard camera beginning in 1949. The problem was cameras were expensive, and would often have been left safely at home when lovely scenes presented themselves. Frustrated with missing photo opportunities, H. M. Stiles had invented a way to enclose film in an inexpensive enclosure without the expensive precision film transport mechanism. ● The currently familiar disposable camera was developed by Fujifilm. Their QuickSnap line began in 1986 while Kodak's 1987 line was called the FunSaver. ● Because of the immediate appeal, companies like Konica, Canon and Nikon soon produced their own models. To stay competitive, Fuji introduced advanced features to its original model such as panoramic photography, waterproofing and the inclusion of a flash. ● By 2005 disposable cameras were a staple of the consumer film camera market and flash-equipped disposables were the norm. Marketing ● https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxRAOclr27M ○ The commercial advertises the disposable camera as a camera that is easy to use and produces quality photos. Manufacturing ● There are three assemblies ○ The casing/frame ○ The mechanics ○ The flash with the circuit unit ● Different Models ○ Sport ■ Waterproof ■ Rugged, durable, shock-proof rubber shell. ○ Power Flash ■ Higher flash range, 4 to 14.5ft range ■ Brighter colors ○ Fun Saver ■ Base model ■ Remember all the fun times!! Packaging Parts: Metallic pouch Protect from x-rays Water Cardboard Covering Front and back cover Winding mechanism Frame counter Sprocket Springs Shutter Lens Circuit Board Capacitor Battery Flash Film Shutter button Flash button Sales & Distribution ● The price of the disposable camera ranges from around $6-15. ● Popular throughout the U.S. Consumer Use ● Disposable cameras are popular with tourists and people traveling around the world to save pictures of their adventures. ● Since the late 1990s, disposable cameras have become increasingly popular as wedding favors. Usually they are placed on tables at wedding receptions to be used by guests to capture their unique perspective of the event. ● So-called "accident camera kits" containing film-based disposable cameras are increasingly being carried in vehicles to take images as evidence after an accident. Disposition ● One time use ● Since 1990 Kodak and other companies has recycled 1.5 billion disposable cameras. Along with keeping down the costs for consumers their recycling methods also keep waste out of landfills. 1.5 billion cameras would stretch 120,000 miles which is far enough to go around the Earth 5 times. Of these recycled cameras Kodak accounted for approximately two-thirds of the total. The recycling rate of cameras is currently 84 percent due to the manufacturer's use of plastic and metals in the camera. There is a good chance that the disposable camera a consumer uses today is mostly made of recycled materials..

Photographic Cameras' Roots Go Deep. Everything Started with the Camera
Photographic cameras’ roots go deep. Everything started with the camera obscura, and continued with Daguerreotypes, 35mm cameras, digital cameras and camera phones. 1500 The first pinhole camera (also called the Camera Obscura) was invented by Alhazen (Ibn Al- Haytham). 1839 The Daguerreotype Camera was announced by the French Academy of Sciences. One of these inventions is now the world’s most expensive cameras. 1840 The first American patent issued in photography to Alexander Wolcott for his camera. 1859 The panoramic camera patented by Thomas Sutton. 1861 Oliver Wendell Holmes invents stereoscope viewer. 1888 George Eastman patents Kodak roll-film camera. Eastman was a pioneer in photographic films usage. He also started manufacturing paper films in 1885. His first Kodak box camera was very simple and very cheap. 1900 First mass-marketed camera – the Brownie was presented by Eastman. It was on sale until 1960s. 1900 The Raisecamera (travel camera) was invented. Extreme light weight and small dimensions when it is folded made this photo camera the most desirable thing for landscape photographers. 1913/1914 The first 35mm still camera (also called candid camera ) developed by Oskar Barnack of German Leica Camera. Later it became the standard for all film cameras. 1948 Edwin Land invented the Polaroid camera which could take a picture and print it in about one minute. 1978 Konica introduces the first point-and-shoot, autofocus camera Konica C35 AF. It was named “Jasupin”. 1981 Sony demonstrates the Sony Mavica – the world’s first digital electronic still camera. Digital photography and television images are related to the same technology, so this camera recorded images into a mini disk and then put them into a video reader.

The Selfie Back in the Far Past, When One Wanted an Image of Oneself, One Hired an Artist
The Selfie Back in the far past, when one wanted an image of oneself, one hired an artist. There was a rumor that because these artists charged by the limb, the term it costs an arm and a leg came about. If one could not afford an artist, the practice of silhouettes became popular. This was the tracing a shadow of a profile on a piece of black paper and then cutting it out to frame. The 19th century saw a breakthrough with the photographic camera that produce an image on a plate of glass. These first cameras required one to sit or stand very still for a long period to expose the plate. Therefore, the old tin plates never showed one smiling, for the smile would not hold and would distort the final result. Photographers were used during the Crimean War in the 1850s and were widely used during the American Civil War. Most of the battlefield photo plates were too graphic for the public, sothe glass plates were used to make greenhouses. The next big jump in the camera came with the Eastman Company and paper film. Eastman-Kodak produced the Brownie Box camera that was affordable. The camera was sent off for development and later turned into a disposable camera. The next innovation was the Polaroid camera with self- developing film. The photos always had one person left out of the picture, so the time delay was invented to take everyone at the same time. The camera operator would set the timer and then run to get into the picture frame.
