Originally the camera was made to capture a moment in time quickly and exactly. Paintings often reflected the opinion of the painter in their art however photos show exactly what was happening
1826
They were opticians and instrument makers (Charles the son, Vincent the father) who made lenses for the camera obscura (not to be confused with the early photographic cameras). Nicéphore Niépce, and Daguerre collaborated with the Chevalier's to create lenses for their prototype cameras. After a time, Charles formed his own company and created the first folding camera.
The first camera was invented by Joseph-Nicephore in 1826.
It was invented in 1850 by two brothers named Charles and Vincent Chevilar.

However, the first photograph was not permanent and faded away, and so, in 1827, he made permanent images using a sliding wooden box camera, made by Vincent and Charles Chevalier in Paris, France. If one was to be talking about a camera that does not take photos, and rather a camera that projects an image of a scene upside-down, this technology would trace back to the ancient Chinese and the Ancient Greek.
It was a sliding wooden box used in 1826 by Joseph Nicéphore Niépce made by Charles and Vincent Chevalier in Paris. Niépce built on a discovery by Johann Heinrich Schultz (1724): a silver and chalk mixture darkens under exposure to light. While this was the introduction of photography,.
