Dr. Edwin H. Land

(1911–1991)

Inventor of Instant Photography

Founder of Polaroid Corporation

Polaroid at Fifty:

Dr. Edwin H. Land and

His Dream of Instant Photography

Oftentimes, what inspires innovation originates from the

simple question “why can't this be done?” On Christmas

Eve Day in 1943, Dr. Edwin H. Land, the acclaimed

inventor and founder of Polaroid Corporation, was

enjoying an afternoon outing with his three-year-old

daughter, Jennifer.

At some point during this afternoon, little Jennifer asked

her father why she had to wait to see the photographs

he was taking.

Dr. Land contemplated his daughter's simple question.

ould it be possible to create an instantly developing

photograph? With his legendary inspiration and focus,

Dr. Land solidified his concept of instant photography

over several hours that same day.

The realization of his concept emerged over several

years of subsequent research and development at his

laboratory in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The breath-

taking result of this experimentation—the world's first

instantly developing photograph—was revealed before

How can I prevent 'red eyes' in my pictures? Verified

The 'red eye' phenomenon is caused by too much light in too little time getting to eyes of the people in the picture. This effect is even stronger in a dark atmosphere. The following can be done to prevent it: don't let people look directly into the camera, create more light, take the picture closer to the subject or decrease the use of the zoom function.
