Description

Photographic film that produces a color image. The first color image film, Lumiee Autochrome, was developed in 1907. It was made using a series of films exposed with a sequence of different color filters in the camera to separately form three colored images. Then in 1931, L. Godowsky and L. Mannes, discovered a 3-color dye coupling process that was soon commercially produced by Eastman Kodak as Kodachrome® (1935). Eastman Kodak introduced other types of film: Kodacolor® (1942) - first color negative film for low-priced cameras; and Ektachrome (1946) first color film that could be self-processed by photographers. In 1962, Polaroid introduced an instant developing color film that did not need to be sent out for processing.
