Kodak A-122 photographic camera. The body of this camera is made of a bellows, with an eyepiece and shutter at the front, protected by a casing. The lid at the back allowed the user to insert the autographic film. George Eastman was the founder of the Eastman Kodak Company and the inventor of the photographic film roll machine, which replaced glass plates. This camera brought mobility to photography due to its size and autographic film roll. Eastman, who was aware of how revolutionary his camera was, bought his patent in 1913 and used black camera bellows to distinguish his camera from others, which were red.
