How and who was the first camera discovered?
The term camera comes from the Latin "camera obscura" which means dark chamber and was a small box with a mirror inside that would project an image onto a piece of glass. The first camera obscura was probably built by a man called Alhazen in the 11th century. Later, during the Renaissance, many artists like Leonardo Da Vinci used a camera obscura to trace a scene that they would later paint. So, the original camera was used for painting on canvas, not for taking pictures as we normally do now. And even now, the camera obscura is not even a traditional camera, but a microchip in a digital camera.
What was a box camera used for?
To take pictures, like any other camera. The Brownie Box camera by Kodak was one of the first mass produced ones and was named because it looked like a box. The earliest ones had to be sent to Kodak to have their film removed and replaced. They had no flash, no focus or aperature settings and worked outdoors.
Who invented the camera Johann Zahn or George Eastman?
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.
When was black and white film invented?
Thomas Edison. The Frenchman Louis Lumiere is often credited as inventing the first motion picture camera in 1895. But in truth, several others had made similar inventions around the same time as Lumiere. What Lumiere invented was a portable motion-picture camera, film processing unit and projector called the Cinematographe, three functions covered in one invention. In 1891, the Edison company successfully demonstrated the Kinetoscope, which enabled one person at a time to view moving pictures. Later in 1896, Edison showed his improved Vitascope projector and it was the first commercially, successful, projector in the U.S.
How did the first camera ever invented work?
The first camera ever invented was the one that made the first photograph ever produced. That was done by a French gentleman named Niepce, who had a device called a Camera Obscura. A Camera Obscura was a box with a hole in one end, a mirror set at a 45-degree angle, and a piece of glass to lay a tracing paper on. In use, you aimed it at what you wanted a picture of, put the tracing paper on the glass, and drew the picture with a pencil.Niepce practiced an art called Heliography. You got a piece of tinplate steel, coated it with asphalt, laid things on the asphalt and stuck it out in the sun for many hours to let light harden the coating. Then you washed the plate to remove the unexposed asphalt and you had a picture. (Reprints were out of the question.) Niepce decided to see what would happen if he put a heliograph plate in his camera obscure and left it there all day. What happened is he got a picture - the camera obscura put enough light on the plate to harden it.

How made the first camera?
There was no identifiable first maker of a camera, unless you specify photographic camera, for which the answer would be Nicephore Niepce, in 1816. The camera obscura (dark chamber) was first described in detail in the early 11th century by an Arab scholar named Alhazen (Hassan Ibn Alhaitham or Hassan Ibn Hassan), as a device for safely viewing solar eclipses. The earliest record of a suggestion for a portable camera obscura dates to 1606 (Friedrich Reisner), and Athanasius Kircher illustrated a portable camera obscura in his Ars Magna in 1646. A smaller camera obscura is described by Kaspar Schott in 1657, and an example built by him. Johann Zahn described a number of very small portable cameras in 1685, by which date the device is considered to have been ready and waiting for the invention of photography (see Gernsheim). The first camera obscura put to photographic use was made in 1816 by Joseph Nicephore Niepce, who took the first negatives on sensitized paper, but was unable to fix the images. The first permanent photo was made using a camera in 1826 by Niepce.
