                                          Safety Match It is the very common thing in human life.Safety Match was developed in 1844 by the swedish chemistry professor GUSTAF - ERIK- PASCH(1788-1862). He replaced the dangerous white phosphorous in the flammable mixture coating the Match head with nontoxic red phosphorus, which was far less flammable. After obtaining a patentfor the new safety Match , pasch manufactured them in a factory in Stockholm by high costs. Another swede John -Edvard-Lundstron ,improve the pasch's safety match by placing the red phosphorus on sandpaper on the outer edge of the box,and in 1855 he obtained a patent for his new safety match.This model was manufactured on a large scale and Lundstrom,along with his brother Carl ...

His prototype led to the creation of the first batch of SLR cameras in 1884, with a design that is still in use today. Sutton also assisted James Clerk Maxwell in his successful demonstration of color photography in 1861.                                   In non-SLR cameras, light enters the viewfinder at a slightly different angle to that at which it enters the lens, so the resulting photo can appear different to the intended composition. in SLR cameras, a mirror is positioned in front of the le...
