evolution of Camera

Among various other stuff that we own and use a lot, cameras definitely play an important role in our daily life. We freeze great moments from our life in the form of photographs using this little tool, and for emotional beings such as us, this means a lot.
However, it took a great deal of time to make the camera that we use today, be it as a small module on our smartphones or compact point and shoot cameras or the mighty DSLRs.

Pinhole camera was the first camera which was invented by Alhazen (Ibn Al-Haytham) in 1500s. pinhole camera was the simple camera without lens but with the tiny aperture but this camera was not success in the photography as the image is seen upside down.

Then daguerreotype was the first commercially successful photographic process (1839-1860) in the history of photography. Named after the inventor, Louis Jacques Mandé Daguerre, each daguerreotype is a unique image on a silvered copper plate.
