A Look Back at George Eastman and the First Roll Film Camera

I just read a good, short piece on George Eastman and the first Kodak camera. It's a slice of history that has an impact for all of today's photographers. The article, Eastman, Kodak, and Roll Film: A history of revolution and evolution in photography is also a good reminder of how good we have it today as shooters.

Thanks for the fun read, Derrick - it was interesting! It would have been even better with more detail.

I enjoyed the information. I have owned one of these cameras for years and wasn't sure when it was made. I did know it was the first roll film camera.
