Best Answer

Yes - The first translucent film in roll form was invented by George Eastman, creator of translucent roll film and first to develop "snapshot" Photography. However, the first translucent film was used in 1885 when Eastman American Film was first used. He also created the first Kodak camera that was put on the market in 1888. Film was black and white until the introduction of KODACOLOR 16mm film in 1928, the first film to have color.

Are Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle comics black and white?

Not the current IDW comics, but the original 1984 Eastman and Laird series (the first true appearance on the TMNT) were created in a black and white comic book published by Mirage Comics. These Mirage comics stayed black and white until 1993. In 1996 and 2001, two different volumes of TMNT comics were also printed in black and white.


Did George Eastman anticipate color photography?

No. Eastman became interested in photography around 1874, when he was 20 years of age. He patented his process for producing roll film, an advance over glass plates, in 1884, but this was black and white film. The first known color photograph was produced in 1861 by James Clerk Maxwell. At that time, George Eastman was just six years old.


What is dektol?

Dektol is the patented trade name of a single-powder cold-tone black and white paper developer from Eastman Kodak. It is one of the oldest and most flexible black and white paper developers made, and so far as I know is still manufactured by Kodak in an envelope of dry powder to make one gallon of concentrated liquid developer, which is then diluted to a working solution by mixing one part of concentrate with two parts of water (1:2). Dektol is primarily for use with cold or neutral tone papers. It will work well with multigrade papers. It is not formulated for warm tone papers although it will develop them, but not to their warmest tones.
