Technology is changing rapidly as every day, something new pops up and makes news.
Be it a new smartphone with a pop-up camera or a device which not only replaces your wrist watch but also adds many more features to it including cellular support. Technology is striving hard to get into every nook and corner of the world and with time, it will make the world even smaller.
Photography was invented in the 1830s and it revolutionised the art world. Soon with better and newer ways and methods of photography, there came the need for faster cameras and faster mediums which could bring the end result quicker than before. This led to the birth of the 35mm film and camera and it became an instant hit. Photography was seeing a rise as there were now many people who took to photography, especially photojournalism as a form of visual story telling. With time, 35mm analogue film cameras became better and manufacturers started developing new and latest technologies and started putting light meters which later supported TTL (Through The Lens) metering. This allowed many consumers to buy and shoot with manual cameras. Eventually, motor winders, data backs to hold more film, and several lenses and accessories were made to ease the long process of photographing to the final image.
The early 2000s saw a rise in the buying and selling of photography related equipment, cameras, lenses and film. Soon automated film cameras along with some digital cameras became widespread. It was sure that film usage would slowly decline and the rise of use of memory devices to store images will increase, eventually transitioning everything into digital. With the help of technology and modern means, photography has been influenced a lot especially since it makes things a lot easier. So people of all levels of skills began to experiment with photography. Photography has had a major influence from technology and its tools in the recent days, and we have noted some very important ones.
