Brownie is the name of a
long-running and extremely
popular series of simple and
inexpensive cameras made
by Eastman Kodak. The
Brownie popularized low-cost
photography and introduced
the concept of the snapshot.
The first Brownie, introduced
in February, 1900, was a
very basic cardboard box
camera with a simple
meniscus lens that took 2¼-
inch square pictures on 117
rollfilm. With its simple
controls and initial price of
$1, it was intended to be a
camera that anyone could
afford and use, leading to
the popular slogan, "You
push the button, we do the
rest." The camera was
named after the popular
cartoons created by Palmer
Cox.
About Me
I have been interested in
photography since a boy.
My first camera was a
Kodak Brownie. My first
serious camera was a
Pentax K1000 SLR Film
Camera. I was self-
taught in photography
until I joined a local
Camera Club in 2005.
I am currently on my 8th
Digital Camera, a Canon
40D Digital SLR.
I enjoy taking
photojournalistic, sport,
and nature photographs.
My second love in life is
computers which led me
to become a Computer
Technician of which I
have been for over 20
years.
Thanks for coming,
enjoy your visit!
