Explanation
Traditional photographic camera film uses silver halide crystals (silver bromide, silver chloride) suspended in gelatin as the light-sensitive material. When exposed to light, these crystals undergo a chemical change that forms the latent image, which is then developed. The photographic industry historically consumed massive quantities of silver for film production, making it the largest single industrial use before digital photography.
