History of Panoramic Photography

by George N. Barnard
One of the eariliest patents for a panoramic camera was submitted by Joseph Puchberger from Austria in 1843. Later, in 1844, Friedrich von Martens from Germany developed a successful and technically superior panoramic camera, which broading the horizions and insured the contunious development of panoramic photography. Friedrich von Martens added the crucial feature of set gears which offered a relatively steady panning speed. These earily developments would increase the level image quality of panoramic photography.
Soon after the invention of the wet-plate collodion process, photographers could take anywhere from 2 to a dozen prints and piece them together to form a panoramic image. This photographic process was technically easier and far less expensive than eariler process. These later developments would play a key role in the growth and popularity of panoramic photography.
In today's times the digital camera has lead to a whole new revolution in photographic possibilities.
On Assignment Studios is happy to play a role in this evolution by producion a series of stunning panoramic photos.
