Nicholas II, Empress Alexandra Feodorovna, their children and photography
Photography became truly popular across Europe and the US in the early 20th century as photo equipment became smaller, less complicated, and more affordable. Photography was, without a doubt, the favorite hobby of the Romanov family. They owned the best camera available (a U.S.-made Kodak "Brownie"). Kodak also made a special camera for Nicholas II, allowing him to take panoramic pictures. Nicholas, Alexandra, and their children were a handsome family, perfectly suited to this visual medium. Nicholas II had a photo workshop created in Tsarkoe Selo for the imperial family’s use, which processed 2,000 photos every year. Nicholas and Alexandra also employed professional photographers that sometimes accompanied them on their outings. Thanks to the conjunction of these factors, we know more about the Romanovs than about other royal families that came before them.
Above, photographs of Alexei holding a Kodak "Brownie" and a picture of the camera itself
Below, are several photos of other members of the Imperial family with their cameras. Surprisingly I could not find any photos of Grand Duchess Maria Nikolayevna with a camera in her hands. If anybody has one, send it over! Tatiana looks simply stunning in her photo.

I bought an old Kodak Brownie camera today at a thrift shop for $30 (AUD)!
It’s a Six-20 C model which was manufactured between 1946 and 1953.
It’s missing the carry strap on the top but it came in a handsome leather case. Camera and case are in excellent condition for their age. The camera looks like it’s rarely been used.
I’ve been wanting to get a Brownie camera for ages and now I have one!

Found this brownie camera at a thrift store a few weeks ago. It has a pop up hood to help you line up your shot using a mirror. I've never seen a camera with a viewfinder like this.

El 4 de Septiembre de 1888, en la oficina de patentes de New York el empresario e inventor George Eastman presenta su cámara "Kodak 100 Vista", provocando una revolución de la industria fotográfica. Hasta ese año la fotografía era una práctica profesional que requería experiencia y grandes inversiones en químicos y equipamientos. George Eastman había logrado colocar la sustancia gelatinosa sensible a la luz, el bromuro de plata, dentro de una película flexible que permitía enrollarse y almacenarse dentro de la cámara, esto reemplazaba la placa de cristal y permitía tomar decenas de imágenes consecutivas casi sin preparativos. El 4 de Septiembre patenta la marca "Kodak" y su primer ejemplar, la "Kodak 100 Vista" bautizada como la "Brownie", esta cámara se vendía cargada con un rollo de papel que permitía realizar 100 tomas. Luego de ser usada se remitía la cámara a Kodak, estos revelaban las fotos y se devolvían junto con la cámara ya cargada nuevamente, este método revolucionario popularizó la fotografía. La cámara cargada costaba U$S 25.- (unos 1600 dólares actuales), el revelado del carrete y un carrete nuevo costaban U$S 10$ (unos 640 dólares actuales), si bien no eran baratos, las ciudades se llenaron de gente tomando imágenes de la vida cotidiana. En 1889 cambia el papel por celuloide y en 1894 se reduce el número de fotos pero ya no era necesario llevar la cámara, esto hacía que se pudieran llevar infinidad de rollos para viajes prolongados y nunca tener que desprenderse de la cámara. Con su lema "Usted aprieta el botón, nosotros hacemos el resto" y el monopolio del revelado, Eastman se hizo millonario, dedicó la mayor parte de su fortuna a obras benéficas. Una enfermedad degenerativa empezó a restringir sus movimientos, esto derivó en un desorden psiquiátrico que lo llevó a ser apartado del manejo de su empresa, confinado en su apartamento de New York se quita la vida el 14 de Marzo de 1932.

This was the only usable photo I got back from my 105 year old Brownie, next time I need to remember to actually find some sunlight, and maybe faster film

I'm thinking about taking down the old family Kodak Brownie Hawkeye Camera with Flash model and trying it out.. Needs a good cleaning first.. Apparently, film is available online. Could be fun.. lol. I would develop the film and print myself.. Thoughts? Suggestions?
