Cameras

The term camera comes from camera obscura, which is Latin for "dark chamber". This was an early mechanism for projecting images. The modern camera evolved from the camera obscura, and now is understood to be a device that records and stores images, whether they be still photographs or moving images such as videos or movies.

This week, a look at the history of the camera.
