We all enjoy photography or else we wouldn't be here!  Here are some interesting 'firsts' in the field, it's amazing when you see how far we've come:

Nice site, thanks for the link! The horse gallop is incredible. And a photo by Maxwell himself...enough said.

To nitpick a bit, the entry about 35 mm film should be just about cartridges for photography - the 35mm film itself was already in use way before 1934, but for movies. That's why Barnack picked it up for the first Leica.

I suggest we could add to this. How about we add our first to this list just for us? Let us add our more recent first. For me it will be my First use of ACROS and my new V700

Good idea, Larry!

My first Rolleiflex photo, Fuji Acros:

All my ideas are good it is just that most don't listen to me. LOL

If the authors of the list of "firsts" don't know that 35mm film was in use long before 1934, can I trust the accuracy of the other "firsts?"  After all, Barnack's Leica came into being because 35 mm film was being used pre-World War I.
