Daguerreotype | Evolution of photography

Photography has evolved a lot since its invention in the 19th century. The first photography process, known as daguerreotype, was invented by Louis Daguerre in 1839, as he used a light-sensitive silver plate to capture images. Therefore, this process was quite laborious and expensive, and the images were quite grainy.

Printed on Paper | Evolution of photography

In the following century, new photography processes were developed, such as William Fox Talbot's calotype and Frederick Scott Archer's ambrotype. These processes allowed images to be printed on paper, which made them more accessible to the general public. Photography became increasingly popular throughout the 19th century, especially with the advent of black and white photography.

Became Very Popular

In the 1890s, George Eastman developed roll photographic film, which made photography even easier and more accessible. This allowed people to take many photos with a single load of film, rather than having to change the silver plate after each photo. Landscape and portrait photography became very popular, and the first professional photographers emerged.

Kodachrome Film

In the 1950s, color photography became popular with the development of Kodachrome film. Color photography allowed people to record their lives in a more realistic way, and landscape and portrait photography gained even more popularity. Starting in the 1960s, digital photography began to be developed and became popular in the 1990s. Digital photography allowed people to edit and share their photos easily, which helped to further popularize photography.

In short, photography has evolved from a laborious and expensive process into a form of art and communication accessible to the general public. Digital photography has been one of the main forces behind photography's current popularity, allowing people to easily take and share photos. Photography continues to evolve with the development of new technologies and trends.
