Hi, I've been working on my EPQ project and have been studying the Daguerreotype. It was the first camera that took the first photo ever, due to heliography. The inventors were Louis Daguerre-of which the camera is named, and Joseph Nicephore Niepce.
They developed a partnership, but before practical success was achieved, Niepce died in 1833 at the age of 68. Despite this, Daguerre carried on with their project and eventually produced the Daguerreotype.
Here are some pictures:
