The Society of Photography and Imaging of Japan (SPIJ) was founded in 1926 and now has nearly a 100-year long history. The early development of the Society was, of course, mainly related to photography, which remain one of the most important of imaging technologies. Today, the areas of activity include optics, camera, photosensitive materials, photographic processing, image evaluation, image processing, image analysis, image preservation, history of photography, photographic expression and photographic education... Photography was invented by Niepce and Daguerre nearly 190 years ago. Now, thanks to recent development in electronics and material science, photographic technologies has successfully produced such as auto-focus cameras with electric eyes and super-high sensitivity films. Likewise, progress of imaging science has greatly expanded the scope of imaging and photosensitive systems, which now include not only silver halides but also electrophotography, photopolymers, and imaging..
