DONT MOVE, DONT BLINK! The worlds largest camera was designed by George R. Lawrence, a pioneer photographer-inventor (standing by lens). Lawrence created the 1,400-pound monster (15 men were needed to operate it) after he received an order from the Chicago & Alton railroad for a perfect contact picture not less than eight feet long of one of the railroads new trains. When the mammoth picture was exhibited at the Paris Exposition of 1900, art authorities refused to believe that it was made from one negative.
