Color photography was explored throughout the 19th century. Initial experiments in color could not fix the photograph and prevent the color from fading. Moreover until the 1870s the emulsions available were not sensitive to red or green light.
The first permanent color photo was taken in 1861 by the Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell. Several patentable methods for producing images (by either additive or subtractive methods, see below) were devised from 1862 on by two French inventors (working independently), Louis Ducos du Hauron and Charles Cros (see Coe, ref 1, for details). Practical methods to sensitize silver halide film to green and then orange light were discovered in 1873 and 1884 by Hermann W. Vogel. (Full sensitivity to red light was not achieved until the early years of the 20th century.)
The first fully practical color film, Autochrome, did not reach the market until 1907. It was based on a screen-plate method, the plate being made using dyed dots of potato starch. The screen plate lets filtered red, green or blue light through each grain to a photographic film in contact with it. This is then developed to a negative, and reversed to a positive, which when viewed through the screen plate restores the original colors in their correct proportions.
Other systems of color photography included that invented by Sergei Mikhailovich Prokudin-Gorskii, which involved three separate monochrome exposures ('separation negatives') of a still scene through red, green, and blue filters.

D k: Not the best option. Cameras with fancy useless features, end being annoying. AF can be annoying, camera focuses where you don't want to, endless menus... Like, for example. Face detection. That's a really stupid feature in my opinion. I'm not blind, and I can see faces of my subjects in the frame, no need for a rectangle that frames the faces. CiaoChao: I agree with you. You should start with a good 35mm SLR. Like a canon AE1, Pentax LX, Pentax K1000, Nikon FM series and Olympus OM's. You should read about the basic technical stuff (handling exposures, apertures, shutter speeds) and you're good. These are great cameras, you'll forget about AF since they have a great viewfinder, great for focusing. A good 'ol SLR and a f1.4-f1.8-f2 50mm lens is great for learn photography.

According to Wikpedia colour film has been available commercially since 1935. However the first permanent colour photograph was taken in 1861 by Scots physicist James Maxwell.

The movie 'Gone with the wind' was a color movie. It was made in 1935(approx.) So the cameras which could have color pictures would be existed in 1930 or earlier.
