It cannot be stated with certainty what artist was the first to use a camera obscura. The principle was first described by Aristotle in the 4th century BC. In the 15th century AD Leonardo da Vinci wrote a description of the camera obscura, though it is not probable he used such as an artist. It has recently been suggested (though not proved) that it was used by 15th century Flemish painters. We know, however, that it was used by Vermeer and other Dutch artists in the 16th century.
The camera obscure means "dark chamber" in Latin. Camera obscura can work with just a box with a hole in one side. Light from one part of an object will pass through the hole and to the paper inside. The image from the camera obscura will all be upside down and reveresed like a mirror. If the pinhole in it is smaller, the object will appear sharper.
a darkened boxlike device in which images of external objects, received through an aperture, as with a convex lens, are exhibited in their natural colors on a surface arranged to receive them: used for sketching, exhibition purposes, etc.

The camera obscura was invented in the 16th century. It is believed that a great number of artists have used it, but only seldom do we know that an artist has talked or written about this. Vermeer (Dutch), Canaletto and Guardi (Venetians) are well-known instances of artists using it.
The first person credited with creating a paper negative using a camera obscura type device was William Henry Fox Talbot (1800-1877), a British amateur scientist. Talbot's "Calotype" process involved coating paper with table salt and Silver Nitrate, and then developing the negative image using Gallic Acid. While the image quality of Calotype prints was inferior to the competing contemporary Daguerreotype process, Talbot's invention ultimately formed the foundation for the photographic revolution, based on production of a reusable, infinitely reprintable negative.
Joseph Nicephore Niepce was also experimenting with camera obscura images. By 1816 he had succeeded in making a paper negative in a camera obsura, but he could not prevent it form fading
The first mentions of the camera obscura appear in writings by Chinese philosopher Mozi, dated between 470 and 390 BCE. Aristotle also mentioned camera obscura in his writings.
The first camera would have been the camera obscura. The camera obscura has been known to scholars since the time of Mozi (around 480 BCE) and Aristotle (around 350 BCE). A camera obscura is a room or a box with a hole in one side through which light passes, causing an inverted image to be projected onto the a wall of the room or back of the box.In 1039 AD an Arabian scholar, Alhazen, wrote the first clear description and analysis of the device. In 1550 a lens was fitted to into the hole of a camera obscura. Over the years following various items were added such as a diaphragm to sharpen up the image and a mirror was added to make the images upright. Starting in about 1676 a portable camera was available. It was in the 1800s that the first practical camera came about. in 1826 Frenchman Nicephore Niepce used a camera obscura for photography for the first time. 1856 saw the first camera that took small images of live subjects. George Eastman, an American, produced the first box 'brownie' hand held camera bought by the general public.Another answerIt was only in 1855 that you could get a photo taken and printed properly, but this doesn't mean that you could not take a photograph earlier. In 1817 a gentleman inventor named Nicéphore Niépce made a small and primitive camera from which he succeeded in taking a partial photo of low quality. This was the birth of the camera as we know it.Cameras were actually developed over time rather than having been invented by just one person. Nicephore Niepce used what is known as a bitumen to create the first actual photograph in 1825. The first portable camera was built by Louis Daguerre in 1837. The first camera that was practical for everyday use was invented by George Eastman in 1888.
Camera obscura, it was created in early china, the theory was that if you seal a box and it's pitch black in side and you poke a hole the image would be upside down, this came to be true. Then deguerre found out that silver nitrate turns black when you put it in the light, aka how we get film, hope I helped!
How about "camera-shy"?

Joseph Nicéphore Niépce did, in 1826. Giovanni Battista della Porta in his great work Magiœ Naturalis of 1558 does lay some emphasis on the use of the camera obscura (literally dark room in Latin), a tent or room with a small hole in one wall which optically projects an upside-down image of the scene outside to the opposite wall (all modern photographic cameras are simply small camera obscuras), but della Porta considered the camera obscura primarily an instrument of entertainment, and certainly did not invent chemical photography. That had to wait nearly three more centuries.Linear perspective had come into widespread use in Italy in the 15th century. The camera obscura aided artists in creating more precise depictions. Sketches made from the projected image in a camera obscura had more exact spatial perspective because a three dimensional scene was accurately projected onto a two dimensional surface. The resulting sketches might, in a considerable stretch, be called "photographic" insofar as they were made from an optical projection, but a true chemical photograph (literally light writing, from the Greek) had to wait until the summer of 1826, when Joseph Nicéphore Niépce is credited with producing the world's first chemical photograph using a camera obscura.Niépce had made photographic negatives on paper with a camera as early as 1814, but was not able to make them permanent. The first permanently fixed photo was that of his 1826 view through his window at Gras.
The first person to use the camera was its inventor, Alexander Wolcott. His first camera model was created in the year 1840.

Alexander Wolcott was a dentist and an inventor. He was born in 1804 and died in 1844. He claims to be the inventor of the first camera but he wasn't!Alexander Wolcott was the first person in the world to get a patent for a camera in 1839 but the first camera was a device called the camera obscura which was used by artists to help make paintings of their clients and it was in use in China before 500 BCE.
George Eastman's father inspired George to create the Kodak Camera.
A camera takes a piece of your soul to create a picture of you. When observed, the image will remain still, but when left alone the person in the photograph will writhe in pain while it is tormented by the spirits of the undead.

NEGATIVE......only o negatives can get o negatives............if an o negative person gets o positive anything that person WILL die..........
the person does create the journey and the journey does not create the person.
A person who takes pictures with a camera is called the camera man.
