Portée et contenu
The Heritage Camera Collection is comprised of cameras, mainly from the Wilhem E. Nassau Camera Collection, the Irving G. Rumney fonds, and several other small, individual donations.
This collection traces the evolution of the tools of popular photography from the turn of the nineteenth century to the current digital age. Many of the cameras were manufactured by Kodak Canada or Eastman Kodak, but there are also examples from many other manufacturers, such as: Ernst Leitz, Minox, Polaroid, Nikon, Rollei, Mamiya, Olympus, Contax, and several companies that pre-date, and were eventually amalgamated into Kodak, including the Rochester Optical Company.
Items in the collection are arranged in series according on their form and function; the categories are based on the research and publications of Michel Auer and Todd Gustavson, and often overlap chronologically.
Series are as follows:
Early cameras
Dry plate cameras
Field cameras
Folding (bellows) cameras
Box and snapsot roll film cameras
Detective cameras
Panoramic cameras
Miniature and sub-miniature cameras
Single lens reflex cameras
Twin lens reflex cameras
35mm cameras
In-camera processing (instant) cameras
Point and shoot caemras
One-time-use cameras
Digital and pre-digital cameras
Toy and promotional cameras
Motion-picture cameras
Video cameras

Classement
This collection of cameras was received from many different donors and has been arranged into 18 series based on the style and use of the camera. These series are based on the catagorization used by Michel Auer (Tubbs, D.B., trans., The illustrated history of the camera from 1939 to the present / by Michel Auer. Boston : New York Graphic Society, 1975) and Todd Gustaveson.
In cases where the item may logically be placed in two or more categories (such as 35mm and Point-and-shoot) the most distinctive characteristic was selected to categorize the camera.
