This is an early mahogany box in box camera with interchangeable matched lens sets.ere the landscape lens set is mounted. Rough focusing was made by sliding the rear box into the front box. For critical focusing each lens has geared rack and pinion focusing. In front of the camera is the lens cap set. This lens cap set was used as the shutter: removing them, making the exposure and then replacing them when the exposure was complete.

This is camera made by a wood people try to find a wood. people very hard work on camera. camera is
everywhere. I see lot people take family and try to remembered.

First we do not have picture now we have picture
we can see. I see in the picture people died.

My historical innovation is camera. On a summer day in 1827, I made the first photographic image with a camera obscura.I Prior to the people just used the camera obscura for viewing or drawing purposes not for making photographs. My heliographs or sun prints as they were called were the prototype for the modern photograph, by letting light draw the picture.

• 1814
  Im the first photographic image with camera obscura - however, the image required eight hours of light exposure and later faded.

Personal
I am Born on 7 March 1765 in Chalon-sur-Saone, France,I was a French inventor, known as the inventor of photography and a pioneer in the field.

---

when I was the age of thirty,i was a professor at the Oratorian college, a staff officer in the French army, and the Administrator of the district of Nice, France. In 1795, I resigned from his position as administrator of Nice to pursue research with my brother Claude. In August, 1807, the brothers invented an internal combustion engine, the pyréolophore, which ran on powdered fuel. Claude left for Paris, and later went up to London in an attempt to generate interest in the pyréolophore, while Joseph stayed behind. By 1813, i never stick one with one pursuit for too long, grew fascinated with popular art of lithography. He is noted for taking some of the earliest photographs, dating to the 1826.

Contribution to Photography
The history of photography dates back to the first-ever fixed picture was taken by me on a hot summer day in 1826. It took 8 long hours for i to produce a fixed photograph.i referred to these as Heliographs. Starting in 1829 he began collaborating on improved photographic processes with Louis Daguerre, and together they developed the physautotype, a process that used lavender oil.i received no credit for what was essentially his invention. my son eventually fought for and won his father's right to be credited for this invention.

Although by the late seventeenth century the camera obscura projected pictures onto paper and in the eighteenth century the German inventor J. H. Schulze observed that silver salts darkened when exposed to light, it was over a century later when i combined these two concepts to produce photography. From his workroom, which overlooked the courtyard of his family's estate,i made the first true attempt at photography in 1816. i used paper sensitized with silver chloride to capture a view from the camera obscura. This crude image faded away after a short time, and i could not find a means to render it permanent.

A short time later,I improved the same view by adding a card board diaphragm in front of the lens of the camera obscura.I also used nitric acid to "fix" the image briefly. I continued to capture the view of the estate's courtyard, but I improvements were in vain, because he still could not make images which would last. From 1817 to 1825, I experimented with producing negative and positive images etched on metal and glass with light-sensitive acids. Though the processes employed were totally different from the silver chloride process which eventually became photography, he was able to produce successful and permanent copies of engravings.

In 1826 first used a professionally made camera obscura. The camera was made by Charles and Vincent Chevalier, famed Parisian opticians. On a summer day in 1826, I used it to produce the first permanently fixed image from nature. The world's first photograph, a view of his courtyard on a pewter plate, had been exposed to sunlight for eight hours.

It was through the Chevalier brothers that I came to know Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre. Daguerre, who had been trying to fix images on silver chloride paper, was told by the Chevaliers of I success. I wrote to the hesitant a several times before i began corresponding with me. I and Daguerre finally met in Paris in 1827.Im died four years later, leaving Daguerre to complete my work and take more than due credit for the same.

I is credited with producing the first successful photograph in June-July of 1827. I was fascinated with lithography, but I could not draw MT artist son to make the images. In 1814 MY son was drafted into the army to fight at Waterloo,I was left having to look for another way of obtaining images. Eventually I succeeded, calling his product Heliographs (after the Greek "of the sun"). Lady Elizabeth Eastlake, writing in 1857, informs us that he was a man of private means, who had began his researches in 1814.

I came over to England later that year and sought to promote his invention via the Royal Society. However, the Royal Society had a rule that it would not publicize a discovery that contained an undisclosed secret, so I meet with total failure. Returning to France, he teamed up with Louis Daguerre in 1829, a partnership which lasted until his death only four years later, at the age of 69. He left behind him some examples of his heliographs, which are now in the Royal Photographic Society's collection.

This picture is civil war people fighting each other there is death man. people have a flag and the man who sit in horse. many people seeing the death man.

On January 7, 1839, members of the French Académie des Sciences were shown products of an invention that would forever change the nature of visual representation: photography. The astonishingly precise pictures they saw were the work of Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre (1787–1851), a Romantic painter and printmaker most famous until then as the proprietor of the Diorama, a popular Parisian spectacle featuring theatrical painting and lighting effects. Each daguerreotype (as Daguerre dubbed his invention) was a one-of-a-kind image on a highly polished, silver-plated sheet of copper.

The Civil War was the first time in American history that photography was extensively used to make a public record of events.

The art of photography was only 21 years old when the Civil War started, but it was already hugely popular. For the first time, middle-class Americans were able to have their portraits taken, because photographs were much less expensive than paintings.

Before they left for the war, many Civil War soldiers had their portraits taken by traveling photographers or small photography studios, usually using a type of photography known as ambrotype. Ambrotypes were one-of-a-kind images made on glass or metal and stored in small glass-covered cases.

thesis statement 11-4-2009

The camera changed the way in which Americans documented history.
photographers brought the atrocities at war fare to the home front.
