WHAT DOES MICROPHOTOGRAPH MEAN IN ENGLISH?

microphotograph

Microphotograph

Microphotographs are photographs shrunk to microscopic scale – not to be confused with photomicrographs, which are photographs of microscopic things. Microphotography is the art of making such images. Other applications of microphotography include espionage such as in the Hollow Nickel Case. Using the daguerreotype process, John Benjamin Dancer was one of the first to produce microphotographs, in 1839. He achieved a reduction ratio of 160:1. Dancer perfected his reduction procedures with Frederick Scott Archer’s wet collodion process, developed in 1850–51, but he dismissed his decades-long work on microphotographs as a personal hobby, and did not document his procedures. The idea that microphotography could be no more than a novelty was an opinion shared by the 1858 Dictionary of Photography, which called the process "somewhat trifling and childish." Novelty viewing devices such as Stanhopes were once a popular way to carry and view microphotographs. An important application of microphotography is in microforms.

Definition of microphotograph in the English dictionary
