Photographic Flashcards
Photography came from the Greek word:
- PHOTOS which means “light”
- GRAPHOS which mean “drawing”
Overall, it means “Drawing by Light”
is the most common method humans have at receiving and conveying impressions of the world they exist in.
vision
The first recorded use of HISTORICAL LENS was used for
image formation
discovered the fixing properties of thiosulfate, paving the way for permanent pictorial productions
John Herschel
The year John Hershel discovered the fixing properties of thiosulfate, paving the way for permanent pictorial productions
1819
The year Archer improved and perfected the “WET-COLLODION
PROCESS”
1851
discovered the SUPERIOR GELLATIN process, which had been preferred by the public.
Maddox
The year the first exhibit with photographs was done.
1839
made the first photographic portrait
Dorothy Catherine Draper
discovered that dye molecules absorbed on the silver haldes crystals greatly increased the light sensitivity of these crystals
Vogel
introduced TRANSPARENT
ROLL FILM and popularized the SNAP SHOT
George Eastman
sucessfully reproduced images as negatives on papers impregnated with silver salts. Soon after this, practical methods for producing motion pictures were invented
Thomas Wedgewood
The year Hoescht Dye Works in Germany used color-sentisized emulsions.
1904
Velox developing paper was discovered by
Leo H. Baekland
The year Wratten panchromatic plates were introduced.
1906
The year Portrait Film was introduced and at the same time, Projection Printing came into general use
1920
the year natural color film amateur color prints were introduced respectively
1928 & 1941
Amateur use of Photography involves in 3 Major ways:
prints
home movies
small transparency
PROFESSIONAL USE OF PHOTOGRAPHY
Entertainment
Education
Sales
Graphic Reproduction in Magazines
Display Advertising
Data Recording
Nondestructive Testing
Medical and Scientific Records
is the process of producing image by the action of
light or other radiant energy.
PHOTOGRAPHY
are included as initiators in photography
ULTRAVIOLET and INFRARED LIGHT
In the case of economically significant photographic
processes, the “Light” sensitive substances employed are:
SILVER HALIDES
DIAZO COMPOUNDS
AMORPHOUS SELENIUM
ORGANIC PHOTOCONDUCTORS
ZINC OXIDES
are widely used for medical use, x-rays, graphical arts, and engineering drawings but are slower compared with SILVER HALLIDE films.
SILVERLESS FILMS
- a new development that threatens to take over some of silver film market
- uses VIDEOTAPE instead of FILM to produce image
ELECTRONIC CAMERA
• employed as the sensitive substance in most widely used photographic products
• has natural sensitivity to ultraviolet and blue radiation
• Their sensitivity to Red, Green, and Infrared is Negligible unless sensitization to the regions is induced by adsorption of sensitizing dyes.
SILVER HALIDES
consists essentially of an emulsion on a film support of cellulose acetate, polyster, or glass
films and plates
• composed of suspension of minute silver halide crystals in gelatin
• suitably sensitized by the addition of certain dyes
• antifogging agents, hardening agents
