Brownie Camera:

A brownie camera was a simple camera that was essentially made out of cardboard and was made to be inexpensive and easy to use. It had a meniscus lens and took a 2 1/4 inch pictures on 117 roll film. It introduced the concept of snapshot. The first Brownie was introduced by February, 1900, by Eastman Kodak.  It changed Society by letting the people take the pictures, without going to the professionals. It made photography portable.
