A 'toaster with a lens': The story behind the first handheld
digital camera
In 1975, a young engineer in the company that made Kodak
film took the first picture on a handheld digital camera.
Photography would never be the same again. When Steve
Sasson started working at Eastman Kodak, the American
photographic film manufacturer was a vibrant symbol of
American industrial ingenuity.
Set up by George Eastman in the 1870s, the company
became synonymous with film photography thanks to their
Kodak brand. People bought Kodak films and loaded them into
Kodak-branded cameras. Their films were processed using
Kodak development chemicals and they thumbed through the
resulting prints on Kodak photographic paper. The company had
even come up with a snappy slogan at the end of the 19th
Century about this nose-to-tail process: "You push the button,
we do the rest."
But when a 23-year-old Sasson joined Kodak in 1973, he felt
out of place. He wasn't a research chemist who would work on
new films, nor was he a mechanical engineer ready to design
new cameras that would work with Kodak films. Instead, he was
an electrical engineer, and something about the whole
photographic process didn't sit well with him.
"When you first came to Kodak, you have to take photography
lessons," Sasson, now 75, says over a video call with the BBC
from his home office in the US. "You had to develop film. You
had to go out and take pictures and study film and all that. And
to be honest with you, I found it really annoying. You take your
picture, you have to wait a long time, you have to fiddle with
these chemicals.

Scientists criticize food manufacturers for massive profits
from sales of unhealthy ultraprocessed food
Certain ultraprocessed foods, or UPFs, are contributing to
worldwide obesity, chronic health conditions and premature
death, yet the food industry continues to aggressively market
new and existing products in this category for massive profits,
according to an unprecedented three-part series authored by 43
global experts in nutrition and supported by the United Nations
Children’s Fund, or UNICEF, and the World Health
Organization.
More than 50% of the $2.9 trillion paid to shareholders by food
corporations between 1962 and 2021 “was distributed by UPF
manufacturers alone,” according to research published Tuesday
in the leading medical journal The Lancet.
“We found evidence that UPF consumption is increasing
everywhere around the world, fueled by powerful global
corporations,” said coauthor Carlos Augusto Monteiro,
professor emeritus of nutrition and public health in the School of
Public Health at Brazil’s University of São Paulo.
“To keep this business model, which is highly profitable, the
industry cannot afford to make minimally processed foods as
they did in the past, so they use extensive political lobbying to
stop effective public health policies that support healthy eating,”
said Monteiro, who coined the term “ultraprocessed food” in
2009 when he developed the NOVA classification system, which
categorizes foods into four groups by their level of industrial
processing.
Companies can “double or triple their profits” by turning corn,
wheat, beans and other whole foods “into a colorless and
flavorless sawdust which is then reconstructed with artificial
flavorings and additives,” said Barry Popkin, the W.R. Kenan Jr.
Distinguished Professor at the University of North Carolina at
Chapel Hill’s Gillings School of Global Public Health.
