Sorry - you must be thinking of color television. Color film was in wide
use in the late 1930's in both cinamatic and still photograpy. I know . . . I was there! gkg "Mitchell Holman" wrote in message ...

The F-5 shows the 'Haze' paint scheme used by some PR Lightnings. Bob ^,,^ I have seen pictures of WWII. The world was black and white then. The world did not gain color until the mid 1950's. The first modern ('integrated tri-pack') color film, Kodachrome, was introduced in 1935 based on three colored emulsions. Most modern color films, except Kodachrome, are based on technology developed for Agfacolor (as 'Agfacolor Neue') in 1936. Go here for a fascinating and informative history: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_photography Would you believe color photos from 1850 ? The National Archives is "almost finished" with a project begun in 1990 to scan ALL color transparencies taken by US military photographers. That includes glass plates from World War One, 8x10" sheets from WW2 and later, and the zillions of color slides in 35mm, 2-1/4x2-1/4 and 70mm sizes from later days including Vietnam. I've always wondered what happened to the hundreds of cassettes of 70mm Kodachrome which I exposed using a Graflex XL over and around the DMZ and such garden spots as Dong Ha. Someone wanted "briefing slides for the Pentagon" and the colonel came to taff Sergeant Mann -- "Hey, let's get Mann to do it, he's crazy, he'll do anything". I'll tell you about the Rolleiflex and the Leica bombs -- the chopper banked like really sharply, I didn't have the gunner's harness attached, the choice was let the cameras go or let me go. Cameras went, 500 feet into the DMZ Cheers, Dave |
