George Eastman and the Kodak Camera

"Eastman's refinement has influenced the transfer of photographs from professional studios to portraits and arts to the general consumer world" (Carlisle 247). In the mid-19th century, photography was a difficult hobby and occupation. This is difficult, as it requires the equipment necessary to take the correct picture. The camera is usually 5-8 inches and all the necessary equipment is troublesome (Buckland and Lefer 250).

George Eastman, inventor of the Kodak camera, offers photos to anyone. On July 12, 1854, when the silver version of Dagger appeared, he was born in New York. Eastman's interest in photography is rising while planning vacation photos. He has never been there, but I will continue my love of photography. This is the process he can create himself and take multiple photos. In 1880, he founded his own company called "Eastman Company". (Sue Vander Hook, pp. 22-23) Eastman's goal is to "make the camera as convenient as a pencil". The first thing he achieved was to put the photographic paper on the reel table so that people could take pictures and develop them instead of developing them one by one. In 1885, Eastman made a movie that was able to take several photos. This "movie" is suitable for taking dozens of pictures and providing clearer photos than paper. Surprisingly, only a few people used his new invention. (Sue Vander Hook, p. 24)

In 1884, American entrepreneur George Eastman acquired a patent for a movie he was studying for many years. By 1888, he completed his camera design, and his first camera began selling that year. This is called Kodak, and enough film for 100 exposures is preloaded. The only problem is that once the volume is complete it is necessary to send the entire camera back to the factory for processing and reloading. After adjusting his invention in 1900, Eastman released the Kodak Brownie camera and changed the picture forever.
