Story Teller

  • The word “Photography” comes from the Greek, meaning to draw with light. The earliest known use of the word photograph as we know it was in 1839 by the astronomer Sir John Herschel.

  • The first photograph ever taken was by a French scientist named Joseph Nicéphore Niépce. He captured the image with a camera obscura in 1826. The famous image took eight hours to capture because of the long exposure needed for the camera.

  • The company, Kodak, was founded by George Eastman in 1888. When asked, Eastman claimed that the word “Kodak” had no meaning behind it. He said that the letter K seemed “a strong, incisive sort of letter.”

  • The most expensive camera ever sold was a Leica 0-Series camera, a 1923 prototype for the ground-breaking Leica A. It was sold in auction in Vienna.

  • The first digital camera was invented all the way back in 1975 by Steve Sasson. Sasson was working for Kodak at the time and was ordered to keep the invention a secret.

  • This first digital camera was only 0.01 Megapixel and weighed an incredible 8 pounds (3.6kg). It took the camera over 20 seconds to commit the image to tape.

  • In 1987, the Knoll brothers developed a piece of software called ImagePro. It was purchased by Adobe and used to create what we now know as Photoshop. Version 1 of Photoshop was released on February 19th, 1990 and was a Macintosh exclusive.
