Historical Fact of Photography and Camera and Camera

Photography and Camera History That Will Make You Amazing

In 1826, Nips took about four hours to take a photo from his roof. Think !! Shortly afterward, in 1839. Robert Cornelius, an amateur chemist, and photographer in Philadelphia, set up a camera behind his home grocery store, opened the lid, and planned to take pictures. But what a difficulty! There was no one at home at that time. He sat like a stone in front of the camera for a minute without opening the lid. Then he closed the lens and developed the picture and saw that Divya had come. 

He wrote, “The first light picture ever taken”. 1839. ” The world's first selfie. This daguerreotype was invented by J. M. Degare of France. In this method, pictures were taken on silver-plated sheets. So if the silver fell, the picture would be ruined. Talbot, the inventor of the calotype method, did not have that problem. His negatives could be made as positive as desired.

Photography was a regular occurrence then. If you move a little, the picture will get worse. So there were stands so that the neck and head were all stuck and pictures were taken. It took half an hour to take a picture. We have also got pictures of all the famous people in this source. Not without telling the story of two famous Bengalis. 

The most familiar image of Ramakrishna (so that he sits in a pair of seats) was taken on a glass plate. The negative falls from the hand and breaks. Necessarily another glass is fitted there. That round spot can still be seen on the back of the original photo. The picture of Thakur standing in the studio of Bengal Photographers in Radhabazar is also famous. 

The second story is about Vidyasagar. Sarat Chandra Sen's photograph shop was in Delhi. Absolutely could not submit the pass. What else to do !! He moved to Calcutta. He gave a small shop on the east side of Government House. But 8 hours of profit.

Meanwhile, Vidyasagar died on July 29, 1891. The brothers wanted the body to be buried at Nimtala Ghat as soon as possible. Before the sun rose, someone grabbed Saratchandra. He appeared at the crematorium with a tripod camera. His face could not be seen while taking this picture of Vidyasagar, so one of the brothers pushed the corpse upwards.

What happened then? Let it be heard in Senbabu's words - "There was no talk of rich people at that time, even middle-class householders bought this picture and kept it at home." The losses I incurred while staying in Delhi have come to Calcutta and by the grace of Vidyasagar Mahasaya, I have gained four times as much. One thing I am telling you with all my heart, Vidyasagar Mahasaya did a lot of good to many while he was alive, but even after his death, he did me a great favor! ”

Anyway, World Photography Day passed on 19th August. On that occasion, there were some historical pictures and their words. Seeing these, if the Bengalis are interested in the practice of photography again, then this attempt is successful.
