Was there a camera in Qing dynasty? How can this high-tech camera be from the Qing Dynasty?

There were cameras in the Qing Dynasty. The camera was first invented by German painter Daguerre in 1830. It is called "the vitality of Daguerre's words" (the prototype of the camera). Then in the late Qing Dynasty, Jules Etienne, a Frenchman who worked in China Customs, brought the camera to China on 1846.

After the camera entered China, Luo opened a photo studio in Shanghai in 1950s. He was the most famous professional photographer in Shanghai, and he also opened a photo studio in Hongkong in 1950s. The most classic is 1903' s photo taken by Yu Xunling at the imperial palace of the Qing Dynasty, which directly proves that there was a camera in the Qing Dynasty.

History of camera development

In 1 and 1550, Italy cardano put the lenticular lens in the original pinhole position, and the image is brighter and clearer than the black box.

2. 1839, the first practical silver camera was made in Daguerre. It consists of two wooden cases, one of which is inserted into the other for focusing, and the lens cover is used as a shutter, and the exposure time is controlled for up to 30 minutes, so as to take clear images.

1841year, optician Vogeland invented the first all-metal camera. The camera is equipped with the world's first photographic lens with the maximum phase aperture of 1: 3.4 designed by mathematical calculation.

4, 1845 German von Martens invented the world's first 150 turning point. 1849, Davie-Blue Scott invented a stereo camera and a two-lens stereo observation mirror. 186 1 year, physicist Maxwell invented the world's first color photo.

5. 1866, German chemist Short and optical scientist Arjun invented barium crown optical glass in Zeiss Company, and produced positive photographic lens, which made the design and manufacture of photographic lens develop rapidly.

6, 1906 American George hillas used the flash for the first time. 19 13 german oskar barnack developed the world's first 135 camera.

7. 193 1 year, Contax camera in Germany has been equipped with a double-image coincidence rangefinder based on the principle of triangulation ranging, which improves the focusing accuracy, and adopts aluminum alloy die-casting body and metal curtain shutter for the first time.

8. 1956, the Federal Republic of Germany first manufactured an electric eye camera with automatic exposure control.

9. 1960, Pentax introduced the Pentax SP camera, which pioneered the TTL automatic metering technology of the camera.

In 10 and 197 1 0, Pentax applied for the patent of SMC coating technology, and used SMC technology to develop and produce SMC lens, which greatly improved the color reproduction and brightness of the lens, eliminated glare and ghost, and significantly improved the quality of the lens.

1 1 and 1969, the CCD chip was used as the photographic material in the camera carried on the Apollo moon landing spacecraft in the United States, which laid a technical foundation for the electronicization of photographic materials.

12 and 198 1 year, after years of research, Sony produced the world's first camera with CCD electronic sensor as photosensitive material, which laid the foundation for electronic sensor to replace film.
