As we celebrate the nation’s birthday, I thought it would be fun to take a look at one of America’s great camera manufacturers, the Mitchell Camera Corporation. Presented here is a slideshow showing the history of the Mitchell Camera Corporation, one of America’s premiere motion picture camera manufacturers. Beginning with the Mitchell Standard in 1921, the cameras produced by Mitchell defined much of 20th century movie making across the country and the world. Their designs established the look and feel of motion picture cameras for much of the 20th century, and inspired other companies to innovate based on Mitchell’s original designs. Join me as we explore some of the highlights and innovations of the Mitchell Camera Corporation.
