There are also a great many photographs taken on foreign soil among the records of the various branches of the military and many such collections are listed in section 5 and section 6. Although cellulose acetate or " safety film" had been introduced by Kodak in 1908, [34] at first it found only a few special applications as an alternative to the hazardous nitrate film, which had the advantages of being considerably tougher, slightly more transparent, and cheaper. The changeover was not completed for X-ray films until 1933, and although safety film was always used for 16mm and 8mm home movies, nitrate film remained standard for theatrical 35mm motion pictures until it was finally discontinued in 1951. There are large numbers of photographs held here that were taken or collected by British diplomats and other government officials stationed overseas. Most are held among the records of the government departments responsible for handling foreign affairs and British interests abroad, including theColonial Office, the Dominions Office, the Foreign Office and its successor the Foreign and Commonwealth Office.

The genius of Shen Kua's insight into the relation of focal point and pinhole can better be appreciated when we read in Singer that this was first understood in Europe by Leonardo da Vinci (+ 1452 to + 1519), almost five hundred years later. A diagram showing the relation occurs in the Codice Atlantico, Leonardo thought that the lens of the eye reversed the pinhole effect, so that the image did not appear inverted on the retina; though in fact it does. Actually, the analogy of focal-point and pin-point must have been understood by Ibn al-Haitham, who died just about the time when Shen Kua was born.Hippolyte Bayard (French, 1801–1887) (Getty Museum)".

Prince Albert, an avid supporter of science and new technology, became an early and important patron of British photography. It is perhaps fitting that the earliest photographs in the Royal Collection are of the Prince, taken by William Constable in 1842 at his Brighton studio. There are many ongoing questions about different aspects of photography. In her On Photography (1977), Susan Sontag dismisses the objectivity of photography. This is a highly debated subject within the photographic community. [66] Sontag argues, "To photograph is to appropriate the thing photographed. It means putting one's self into a certain relation to the world that feels like knowledge, and therefore like power." [67] Photographers decide what to take a photo of, what elements to exclude and what angle to frame the photo, and these factors may reflect a particular socio-historical context. Along these lines, it can be argued that photography is a subjective form of representation.
