THE DISCOVERY OF PHOTOGRAPHY an‎d TECHNICAL ADVANCES AFTER PHOTOGRAPHY

38510

The presence of photography has taken on an important mission and has developed a close relationship in human life. In this sense, the unbreakable ties of photography in terms of science and art had provided a solid foundation in international relations. Today s artists, in every field of art, are able to express themselves through photos.The developments in the Renaissance period, Camera Obscura, optics, advances in perspective and scientific thought have contributed to the discovery of photography. With the invention of photography in France, and also the use of technical methods like Daguerretip and Kalotip in Europe and America, portrait photography advanced the most and spread all over the world. Daguerretip workshops found its place in Ottoman territories as well. Yet, up to date an example of Daguerretip have not been encountered. Disadvantages of long exposure in old techniques gave rise to the obligation towards a new search. In 1871, Richard L. Maddox’s experiments of silver bromide gelatin coating find solution to the length of exposure time. In 1889, establishing Kodak Company, G. Estman released the film to the market with Brownie Camera. The significance of the use of photography technology, especially the digital photography, in science, art and media is increasing today. In terms of technical developments that occurred during the invention of photography and afterwards, the digital photography has been excluded.
