History in photography - Titanic
Hi all,
Just added two new short video's to the APUG Video section that I liked. One a slide show of historic images and a few snippets of film of the building and maiden voyage of the Titanic, the other a short history of the Photo Booth...
History In Photography - Titanic
NYTimes.com - Weekend Explorer: History of the Photo Booth
Enjoy!

" I don't know, maybe we should disinvent color, and we could just shoot Black & White." - David Burnett in 1978
" Analog is chemistry + physics, digital is physics + math, which ones did you like most?"

Thank You, Marco.
Does anyone of you Apuggers still has an analogue photo booth around where he lives?
I don't.

No, but digital ones as a heritage of the old analog ones yes. My nearest railway station... at least, I am sure it will be digital by now, haven't ever had a real close look to be honest though.

I remember the instructions to leave in the chute that the strip was dropped into as it was a little sticky if you handled the surface straight away. That was the 60's when the prints were all B&W. Given the servicing each booth must have needed compared to digital booths I'd be amazed if there are any left in Europe at all.

But now I am puzzled. The video there, says it is a B&W photobooth according to the text. But I see some colored liquids (Orange, Yellow, Green), what chemicals are in there

But b&w chemicals are not black and white either...

That video was great! Makes me want to see one of these in real life! I am now going to be on the hunt for an analog photobooth!

I enjoy that! There is a photo booth at a shopping mall where I live, I'm sure it is digital.
