Photography News: Rumored DSLR Flagship, Last F-mount Exotics on Sale
PhotographylifeDo you know what a significant event took place on September 16, 1824? On that day, two important events took place in France: King Louis XVIII of France died, and photography was born. With all due respect to the French king, I consider the second event to be more important over time. It was the talented inventor Joseph Nicéphore Niépce who we consider the father of our hobby 200 years ago. We’ll probably never know what his first photograph looked like, but if you want to see his first surviving photograph – from 1827, titled View from the Window at Le Gras – you can visit the Gernsheim Collection at the University of Texas at Austin. How far back do your photographic beginnings go?
