All:

Version 5 of the now, not-so-brief, history of film and photography is now on-line.

This time, it's the US that got the shot, with the addition of Wollensak, Bausch & Lomb, Ilex, and some new Kodak History.

Thanks to Douglas Sharp help and encouragement, Walter Zapp's Minox, Ernst Abbe and Otto Schott are now included, as well.

And who could live without knowing the story of the Folmer & Schwing Bicycle and Camera Company?

As always, corrections of fact, timing, spelling etc., are all appreciated.... as are suggestions of areas I've overlooked.

The history can be found by going to: www.horizon.bc.ca/~dnr and then clicking on the "Brief History" link, on the left.

Thanks for looking.
