2. Fact 1 • The first camera was invented by Alexander Wolcott • Mr. Wolcott invention was patented on May 8, 1840

3. Fact 2 • The purpose of this invention candid of photos to be taken and not fade away with time.

4. Fact 3 • Joseph Nicephore used a sliding wooden box to take photographs in 1826.

5. Fact 4 • Before Mr. Wolcott's invention, there were primitive cameras that could capture images. Problems started to happen from images that faded to the length of time it took for the images to develop.

6. Fact 6 • The history of the camera is long and complex. Louis-Jacques-Mande Daguerre invented the first photographic camera in 1836.

7. Fact 12 • The first movie made with the Technicolor Motion called “The Gulf Between” which came out on February 23,1918.

8. Fact 20 • In December of 1975, Eastman Kodak Co. developed the prototype for a digital camera. The device was a large 8-pound box about the same size as six staked books.

9. Fact 5 • Mr. Wolcott's invention name was the daguerreotypes.

10. Fact 21 • Future steps were taken in 1995 when Casio released the first digital camera with a LCD screen and a year later when Kodak released the first digital camera with a compact flash sensor.

11. Fact 7 • The first known instance of people being aware of the photograph theory was in the 5th century China.

12. Fact 8 • The first person to test out Daguerre's invention was a man in China named Mo’ Ti.

13. Fact 9 • Film is based on photography in many ways, and when the medium first appeared at the beginning of the 20th century, there was no real method of creating color images. Every movie was in black and white, though the images could sometimes be tinted with single colors to provide a certain impression.

14. Fact 15 • Henry Fox Talbot the calotype photo used paper coated with the calotype process in 1841. The calotype photo used paper coated with silver iodide. After the paper was exposed to a light source.

15. Fact 10 • Some of the movie that were made in black and white like "Nosferatu," "Sunrise," and "The Cabinet of Dr. Cagliari."

16. Fact 11 • The process of making color films began as early as 1906, but wasn't perfected until the 1920s. • Technicolor a method that broke black and white film into three separate strips colored red, blue and green, finally cracked the code 1917's

17. Fact 13 • Technicolor remained a slow process and was often much more expensive than black and white films. • It was mainly used to lend a sense to a given movie: musicals like "The Wizard of Oz" and epics like "Gone With the Wind" were the most common beneficiaries.

18. Fact 14 • The camera used in the two-color systems two and three. The camera speed was nominally 32 frames per second, 16 pairs of red and blue-green records.

19. Fact 16 • The concept of the pinhole camera was in use since the 4th century BC. Aristotle and Euclid wrote about naturally occurring pinhole cameras

20. Fact 17 • An Arab physicist, Ibnal-Haytham created the first pinhole camera after observing how light traveled throw a window shutter.

21. Fact 18 • Ibn al-Haytham is also credited with inventing the first camera obscura. • In Latin, camera obscura means dark chamber .A camera obscura may be a building with small holes used in the same manner as a pinhole camera, or it may be a small box with a hole in it, serving the same purpose

22. Fact 19 • The first digital camera was a gradual development. In the 1950s, the first video tape machines were created. The devices soon became a standard for the motion picture industry.
