“In photography, there is a reality so subtle that it becomes more real than reality.”
 — Alfred Stieglitz
Photos speak more than words, and they have eventually transformed from just being a photograph to tales of love, imagination, mischief and everything which cherished in memories.

Photos are not only albums which are made and kept in the closet and seen when there was an emotional outburst. Now, pictures and photography have become a passion. While its evolvement in the way the photos have perceived. The other perspective is the way the photography has changed from the initial years to this day.

Photography in the initial days considered to be a hobby of the affluent and at times, owning a camera was perceived to be the affluence.

Time ran fast, and early 1990 saw a revolution where companies started with mass production of economical cameras, which was instead for the armatures to capture their so-called moment of joy and happiness. The two such cameras I can remember about is the Kodak KB-10 & EC-200, every household had that one piece which was a matter of pride and joy for them, and it also bought the self-reliance of affluence in the owners. The camera was itself not priced so slowly, and as per the income bracket, people bought the one they need, but soon they realized that the expense attached to it was higher than just owning cameras viz. the cost of the film, the development cost of films . It all needed money.


Starting early 2000, the revolution began, and the format changed from the analogue cameras to the one with the digital form, where the cost attached to the development and others are eliminated, but the cost of buying was very high.

Time elapsed and more and more companies started producing digital cameras while there was a hoard of cameras in the market. In all, it started with point and shoot cameras with a decent megapixel and a zoom, which almost supported a suitable memory chip and were huge HIT in the market and every household had one of these machines. Along with these developments, further developments were happening where the bridge cameras with a high megapixel and a high zoom rate were now being handed to people who loved to nurture their photography buds.

On the other hand development of the so-called DSLR was a significant boost to the people who loved photography, it handed them with a machine which could be manually adjusted and could be used as per the desire of the person.

Alongside, one company was working with a technology which called itself the mirror less technology, which when first introduced in the market, did not appease the buyer and had to step back and remain dormant in the market for a couple of years. Yes, you got me right it was SONY who worked with the mirror less technology and gave the world the ease of capturing photos and a lesser speed to capture pictures than their competitors.
