Pinhole Camera

Next generation cameras• The early folding cameras were

compact amateur view cameras, At the end of the 19th century the first renowned strut folding cameras were designed, for No. 3A Autographic Kodak Junior.

• Its lens assembly needs to be pulled out along the rails on its opened hinged front door.

• The leaf shutter has a small lever for firing and maybe another for cocking

• Film is advanced with a key or knob; one stops winding when the new number appears in a red window on the back.

• viewfinder is a swiveling brilliant finder attached to the front of the lens.

A rangefinder camera is a camera fitted with a rangefinder: a range-finding focusing mechanism allowing the photographer to measure the subject distance and take photographs that are in sharp focus.

Rangefinder cameras

Large format sheet/Roll film camera Large format refers to any imaging format of 4×5 inches (102×127 mm) or larger. Large format is larger than "medium format", the 6×6 cm (2¼×2¼ inch) or 6×9 cm (2¼×3½ inch) size of Hasselblad, Rollei, Kowa, Pentax etc cameras (using 120 and 220 roll film), and much larger than the 24×36 mm (~ 1.0 x 1.5 inch) frame of 35 mm format.

Twin Lense reflex cameraA twin-lens reflex camera (TLR) is a type of camera with two objective lenses of the same focal length. One of the lenses is the photographic objective or "taking lens, while the other is used for the viewfinder system, which is usually viewed from above at waist level. In addition to the objective, the viewfinder consists of a 45-degree mirror , a matte focusing screen at the top of the camera, and a pop-up hood surrounding it.

35mm Range finder cameraMost varieties of rangefinder show two images of the same subject, one of which moves when a calibrated wheel is turned; when the two images coincide and fuse into one, the distance can be read off the wheel. Older, non-coupled rangefinder cameras display the focusing distance and require the photographer to transfer the value to the lens focus ring; cameras without built-in rangefinders could have an external rangefinder fitted into the accessory shoe

Single-lens reflex camera

• A single-lens reflex (SLR) camera is a camera that typically uses a semi-automatic moving mirror system (hence the name "reflex", from the mirror's reflection) that permits the photographer to see exactly what will be captured by the film or digital imaging system, as opposed to pre-SLR cameras where the view through the viewfinder could be significantly different from what was captured on film.
