The Photographic Revolution Back in 1877 a 23 -Year-Old Bank Clerk, George Eastman, Took up Photography As a Hobby
the photographic revolution Back in 1877 a 23 -year-old bank clerk, George Eastman, took up photography as a hobby. Like all picturetakers of his time, he carried a huge camera and tripod, chemicals, a tent for a darkroom, and other equipment. He had to make a "wet plate" by coating a light-sensitive emulsion on a piece of glass immediately before he exposed it. Picturetaking at that time was hard work, but Eastman felt it could be made easier and more fun. After many experiments in his mother's kitchen, he found a way to mass- produce photographic dry plates, and in 1880 he started to make them com mercially in a rented loft in the downtown section of Rochester, N. Y . In 1884 Eastman introduced a paper-base "film," and in 1888, the No.1 Kodak Camera - the small box camera which simplified photography so that anyone could take pictures. Eastman himself coined the trademark "Kodak" and the famous advertising slogan "You press the button, we do the rest." The Kodak camera caught on quickly, and the company sold over 100,000 of them in the first eight years. Today, some 52 million Americans take more Picturetaking in the days before Kodak cameras. than two billion snapshots each year. Picture taking has become America's number- one hobby. 2 © 1962 Eastman Kodak Company -I.. .. 1 I ~ , The No. 1 Kodak The first Folding New styling was fea· The popular Brownie Camera of 1888 sim· Brownie Camera was tured in Baby Brown Starflash Camera was plified photography. offered in 1904. -

Photography Fundamentals Interpreted
AHS Capstone Annotation Benjamin Bloom Gillian Epstein, advisor 10 May 2006 Photography: A Momentary Capture of Light Background The word photography, if translated etymologically, means “light-writing.”1 This very broad meaning has come to encompass a myriad of techniques and forms, from rudimentary early Daguerreotypes to modern digital imaging, each medium connected by the use of light to form an image. The photographic medium is a modern invention, first achieved on a sensitized pewter plate in 1826 by the French inventor Nicéphore Niépce.2 Photography has matured immensely in technology and technique over the past 180 years, providing a wide array of possibilities for the modern photographer. My project uses the two most common contemporary photographic methods, digital imaging and 35mm film, to explore the essence of photography as an artistic medium. In 1884, George Eastman, the founder of Eastman Kodak Company, invented a technique to coat paper with a light sensitive dry gel: the first photographic film. This invention brought photography to the consumer market because it was a self-contained system that did not require the consumer’s use of toxic chemicals.3 Modern film consists of a plastic substrate covered with a gel containing light-sensitive silver halide crystals (the emulsion). After the film is exposed to light, chemicals used during developing convert the silver halide crystals in the emulsion into visible metallic silver.4 This process leaves a negative image on the film, called the negative at this point in the process, and can be used to make positive image prints. To make a positive print, light is projected through the negative onto a sheet of paper that has been coated with a light-sensitive emulsion (a 1 Prosser, Jay. -

Kodak's manufacturing plant sees to it that all Ektar 25 film must fall within the tight tolerances they set for each distinct layer of film. When the specifications on a certain emulsion are found to be a perfect match in all areas, it becomes Ektar 25 Profession- al, and is refrigerated at that point.

My Mother's Camera
Manning 1 Pam Manning Marydorsey Wanless Retro Camera Seminar AR399 F April 10, 2011 My Mother’s Camera The Kodak Brownie camera has a long history with the Eastman Kodak company which began in February 1900 with the introduction of a very basic cardboard box camera with a simple lens that took 2¼ inch square pictures and cost only $1. The Brownie introduced the concept of snapshot photography and was intended to introduce photography to everyone, not just professional photographers (Kodak). What is considered one of the greatest slogans in advertising history, “You push the button, we do the rest” reinforced the simplicity of the Brownie camera (American Heritage). Designed and marketed for children, the Brownie camera was named after popular characters created by Palmer Cox, a children’s author and illustrator. Cox was the Walt Disney of his day. His Brownie characters were as well known in the 1880’s as Mickey Mouse is today (Kodak). Like Disney’s characters, Cox’s Brownies often appeared in ads. They helped sell everything from candies to cigars, coffee to ice cream, and even painkillers. Brownie dolls, games, puzzles, and trading cards were eagerly sought. And so was the Brownie camera, far beyond anyone’s expectations (Kodak). My history with the Kodak Brownie began when my mother took my picture with her Kodak Brownie Hawkeye. She would direct me to stand in a certain pose or perform a certain task. When she was happy with what she saw she would then back away from me, hold the camera about waist height, look down into the viewfinder and click. -
