Abstract

Digital photography was discovered by Sony in 1981. The technology struggled for many years, mainly because the electronics of the day were inadequate. Nowadays, digital photography is the mainstream photographic technology, having overtaken the mature silver halide technology. This paper describes the chemistry and technology of silver halide and digital photography. Particular emphasis is given to producing high-quality images by ink jet printing, the technology of choice to produce photographic prints from digital cameras.
