Photography History.

Today in my class we had a discussion on History of Photography [this was the first time I’ve learned about this]. I realized that it used to be really complicated and they had to lug around a whole darkroom in the back of carts about 150 years ago or something like that even around the Western Exploration [of the US]. They had these big box-like “cameras” that would take about 8 hours to expose or something. The first negatives were in like 1930’s-1840’s I believe. Caused a big ruckus in the world when cameras were invented.

Hehe, some people thought it was evil and work of the devil!

It wasn’t until quite recently until we had the easiness of Digital Cameras and Photoshop etc.

I’m glad I dont have to lug around a big box like camera with a whole darkroom while taking photos.
