Who was the first person who invented the camera in China?

Zou Qi Bo

Zou began to study optics at the age of 17. Zou was called "the father of China camera" by 1844. He also made telescopes, microscopes and seven political instruments, and was also the first person to study Mohism in modern times.

Most of Zou's manuscripts and homemade musical instruments were left to future generations. Zou Yisheng wrote a lot, but most of them were unfinished manuscripts. After his death, Chen Li, a scholar, selected a part of his last manuscript, which was published at the same time with Zou Manuscript and spread to the world.
