One of the two main types used <a href="/wiki/Beam_splitter" title="Beam splitter">beam splitters</a> to produce three separate images in the camera, making all three exposures at the same time and from the same viewpoint. Although a camera of this type was ideal in theory, such cameras were optically complicated and delicate, and liable to get out of adjustment. Some designs were also subject to optical phenomena that could cause noticeably uneven color or other defects in the results. The other, more robust type was an essentially ordinary camera with a special sliding holder for the plates and filters that allowed each in turn to be efficiently shifted into position for exposure—an operation sometimes partly or even entirely automated with a pneumatic mechanism or spring-powered motor.<sup id="cite_ref-Coe_15-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Coe-15"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>When the three color-filtered photographs were not taken at the same time, anything in the scene that did not hold steady during the entire operation would exhibit colored "fringes" around its edges in the resulting color image. If it moved continuously across the scene, three separate strongly-colored "ghost" images could result. Such color artifacts are plainly visible in ordinary color composites of many of Prokudin-Gorsky's photographs, but special digital image processing software was used to artificially remove them, whenever possible, from the composites of all 1,902 of the images commissioned by the Library of Congress in 2004.<sup id="cite_ref-prokcompos_20-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-prokcompos-20"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>20<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> The altered versions have proliferated online and older or third-party versions showing these tell-tale peculiarities are increasingly scarce.<sup id="cite_ref-21" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-21"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Adolf Miethe designed a high-quality, sequential-exposure color camera, which was manufactured by Bermpohl and became available commercially in 1903. Prokudin-Gorsky published an illustration of it in <i>Fotograf-Liubitel</i> in 1906.

Other accounts give the year as 1889, but a primary source for that extremely early date is not apparent and it does not accord with the circa 1889 biographical details of either man. The major English-language source reporting 1889 (Adamson and Zinkham, p. 108) describes Miethe as "A brilliant young professor at the Charlottenburg Technische Hochschule..." and states (footnote, same page) that "While in Berlin, Prokudin-Gorskii is said to have given technical courses in photochemistry and spectrum analysis at the Technische Hochschule...", which evidences confusion of the facts somewhere along the line: biographies of Miethe all agree that he, not Prokudin-Gorsky, was the professor of photochemistry and spectroanalysis at the <a href="/wiki/Technische_Universit%C3%A4t_Berlin" title="Technische Universität Berlin">Königlich Technische Hochschule in Berlin</a>, a post he accepted by invitation in 1899 after the sudden death (17 December 1898) of its previous longtime occupant, <a href="/wiki/Hermann_Wilhelm_Vogel" title="Hermann Wilhelm Vogel">Hermann Wilhelm Vogel</a>, the discoverer of dye sensitization and himself a colour photography experimenter. It was apparently Miethe's first teaching position and the beginning of his involvement with colour photography. Until then he had been employed by optical firms such as Voigtländer but was already a notable author, journal editor and inventor in the field of (black-and-white) photography.</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-8"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-8">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text">Membership lists of the Royal Photographic Society</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-9"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-9">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFKington2001" class="citation news cs1">Kington, Miles (2001-09-25). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20090727191645/http://www.independent.co.uk/opinion/columnists/miles-kington/miles-kington--whats-the-russian-for-say-cheese-670621.html">"What's the Russian for: Say Cheese?"</a>. <i><a href="/wiki/The_Independent" title="The Independent">The Independent</a></i>.

Various causes for an unusual delay or atypically slow operation of the camera's plate-shifting mechanism may be imagined.

All are apparently glass-bound lantern slides, with at least one in the 3.25-inch-square British standard format. Some were made from negatives now in the Library of Congress, some from lost negatives previously known only from the albums of small black-and-white prints Prokudin-Gorsky routinely made from one of the three elements. Some are still life arrangements of unknown provenance, possibly from the 1920s, and two are circa 1935 portraits of his children. He appears to have used at least two different processes. In one category of specimens, all except the cyan layer has badly faded, typically contracting and splitting as well. This indicates both the use of unstable dyes and an assemblage of layers somewhat like that in the circa 1900 Sanger-Shepherd process, in which a stable cyan-toned image in an emulsion on glass was laminated with magenta and yellow dye images on very thin sheets of chemically unstable celluloid. The splitting is evocative of an earlier Lumière process that incorporated alternating layers of dissimilar materials. Another category of specimens shows neither drastic differential fading nor splitting. One slide in this latter category bears a labelthat explicitly credits a Prokudin-Gorsky process. The basic principle involved had been patented by <a href="/wiki/Louis_Ducos_du_Hauron" class="mw-redirect" title="Louis Ducos du Hauron">Louis Ducos du Hauron</a> in 1868. Other inventors later patented an array of specific implementations, variations and improvements, but though it sometimes produced excellent results, this kind of process was just too expensively labor-intensive to be practical for the commercial production of color slides.</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-29"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-29">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFDennis" class="citation web cs1 cs1-prop-foreign-lang-source">Dennis, Nadia. <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://port-folio.org/part170.htm">"Tsvyeta ooshyedshyego mira"</a> (in Russian).</cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&amp;rft.genre=unknown&amp;rft.btitle=Tsvyeta+ooshyedshyego+mira.&amp;rft.aulast=Dennis&amp;rft.aufirst=Nadia&amp;rft_id=http%3A%2F%2Fport-folio.org%2Fpart170.htm&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3ASergey+Prokudin-Gorsky" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-Diversity-30"><span class="mw-cite-backlink">^ <a href="#cite_ref-Diversity_30-0"><sup><i><b>a</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-Diversity_30-1"><sup><i><b>b</b></i></sup></a></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite class="citation web cs1"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.loc.gov/exhibits/empire/ethnic.html">"The Prokudin-Gorskii Photographic Record Recreated: The Empire That Was Russia - Ethnic Diversity"</a>.
