Describe the history of the camera.

The term camera come from the Latin term meaning “room” or “chamber”. This comes from the Latin term, camera obsura, which mean dark room. The first camera-like object (camera meaning “light writing” in Latin) was originally created by an Iraqi scientist around 1000 AD. He produced a box, or chamber, that had a small hole. When the light, that is reflected of the objects being photographed, enters the chamber, it passes through the hole. It is projected upside down onto a surface in the back of a chamber.
