Pretty good article that shows these photos, speaks about them and you can learn what camera was used to take the photos.  Interesting stuff   https://www.boredpanda.com/cameras-used-famous-historical-photographs/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=BPFacebook&fbclid=IwAR3yPEsZo_dYRSUnd2PA9dm-5bMU27rWWx8t7nI0DRhJVuRc1o1e2v1vVYI

The 20th Century was covered by Leica, Nikon, and Speed Graphic. I wonder what will end up dominating the 21st?

Makes you wonder what photos from today will be looked at 50 years from now as being "iconic"?

I don't know about iconic, but infamous comes to mind.  Perhaps I keep thinking about Instagram photographers  :lol:

No kidding, it will be interesting to see what photos are garnered 50 years from now and deemed as iconic.   Sorry to say, I'm thinking we'll see a number of Instagram shots in there, Trump photos, images from some of the mass murders that have taken place in recent years, likely Putin shots.  I guess we'll all see.

So, here's a question - who owns rights to those images?

Public domain?  

Or the estate of the photographers.
