The Greatest Tool Ever Invented
Hi Steemians,
Today's topic is about the greatest tool many of us use. The camera, I've only been on Steemit for about four months and I have come across great photographers and many of this photographers are hobbyist's, just like me.
Back in 2009, I took my first trip to Maui Hawaii. Before my trip I had decided to buy a camera. I decided to go for the Sony cyber shot in baby pink. To my surprised I realized that everyday the island was radiated by beautiful bright sunsets. It was during that trip and hundreds of pictures later that I realized I really liked picture taking. I've been a photographer by hobby ever since.

Have ever wonder where the origin of this great tool,the camera, came from? I have, and after doing some research and plenty of reading I want to share with all of you a summary of the invention of the camera.
Alexander Wolcott invented and patented the first camera in 1840. This camera used a concave mirror instead of a lens, and it used Louis Daguerre’s process of chemical developing. In 1842, Wolcott again reduced the sitting time for portraits with his new chemical mixture, called Wolcott’s mixture. This new method reduced the time to about 25 minutes. The camera has ever since been regenerated.
Due to that new hobby I gained on that Maui trip I decided to add an antique camera to my collection. It was in 2011 that I was able to restored an 19840's camera.
Can you imagine carrying a camera like this? Or even a digital camera ? Most of us can agree that phone cameras are the greatest! Hope you guys enjoyed this. What's the camera you use?
Let all you do be done in love, ❣️

Hi, gorgeous.
Thank you
great blog
I agree that modern phone cameras and their software can produce some lovely photos and really are a viable alternative to traditional pocket cameras. However, I would still much rather use my Canon 5D mkiii if I am wanting to ensure as much creative control as possible. The ability to change lenses with a DSLR also allows you to get closer to the action, create lovely bokeh and be more creative.
WOW that camera is AWESOME! I hope you can develop the photos from it, they would be amazing to see!
Also I posted my coco-snowman on my wall. Be sure to send him some love!
I like pictures and the Smart Phone does a great job................Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas to you! ..and yes the smart phones have a great camera :)
