Where was the video camera invented?

Answer 1

Not in Paris, France. (Niepce was working in a town miles south of Paris, about 150 miles in fact) The first permanent photograph was made in 1814 by Joseph -

Nicéphore niépce using a sliding wooden box camera made by Charles and Vincent Chevalier.

As another FAQ Farmer put it: The first camera was invented in St-Loup-de-Varennes, France by Joseph Niepce, a retired french army officer.

John Strognofe invented the first camera. Is that true?

Earlier 'camera obscuras' were used by, among others, Leonardo da vinci. Some say that he invented a form of Photography in about AD 1490 to fake the Turin Shroud.

Answer 2

XD the camera had already been invented centuries before that. Alexander Wolcott invented the camera on May 8, 1840.. hope that helped!

CorrectionThe camera as we know it was invented in several stages. The word is a contraction of "camera obscura", meaning "dark chamber", and described an apparatus consisting of a box with a lens or pinhole opening that could project an image onto a flat surface. Camerae obscurae were already in use by artists and scientists in the 6th century AD so it's not possible to know exactly who assembled the first one.

The earliest true photographic camera was made by 3 Frenchmen in 1826. The camera body was constructed by Charles and Vincent Chevalier, while Joseph Niépce used a mixture of silver and chalk that was sensitive to light and served as the first, primitive photographic plate. The silver-chalk mixture had been invented a century earlier by the German Johann Heinrich Schultz, but it was the Chevaliers and Niépce who first put everything together in a form we recognize today.

The Chevalier-Niépce camera required extraordinarily long exposure times, in some cases as much as 8 hours, and proved to be impractical. Many other inventors worked on improving the process. Foremost among these was another French inventor named Louis Daguerre. His technique used silver-coated metal plates which were portable and had comparatively shorter exposure times. These became known as Daguerreotypes and were the first truly practical photographic process.

The American Alexander Wolcott mentioned above (and not to be confused with the journalist Alexander Woolcott) developed a camera of his own design that could take what are now considered to be candid pictures, and obtained the first US patent for a photographic device. In that sense he can be considered to have invented the first modern camera, but he had many predecessors.

Answer 3

The invention of the camera is credited to Henry Fox Talbot, an English aristocrat who took his first photographs in 1834. This was five years before Frenchman Louis Daguerre introduced the Daguerrotype method of taking photographs- Fox Talbot used the Calotype process, which had initially been pioneered by John Herschel (also a famous astronomer and telescope designer)and Thomas Wedgewood, of the Wedgewood ceramics family.

Fox Talbot died in 1877, at the age of 77.
