What were the professional cameras in Asia during the mid 70's?
I was looking through some old pictures and found a class picture of my dad dating back to '74. The picture was kind of shiny and the blacks were very detailed (like hair). My goal was to make prints like it. So my question is, what did professional photographers in Asia (if different in U.S) used during the mid 70's? What kind of photographic paper was commonly used?

The cameras were either 35 mm SLR's. medium format TLR's or SLR's or even view cameras. The paper used was fiber based, graded paper. Later in the 1970's RC and polycontrast paper became popular. While fiber base and RC paper is still available, graded paper is much harder to find.

It was likely a medium format camera like the Mamiya RB67 or Hasselblad. Possibly a view camera.

What are some Universities in Asia where it's relatively easy to acquire academic credit?
What are some Universities in Asia where it's relatively easy to acquire academic credit?
i 'm planning to spend an exchange semester at a University in Asia. However, i noticed that at many Asian Unis you only get about 16 credits per semester (in spite of a big workload). I am therefore looking for Universities where it's possible to get more credits per Semester. 25-30 Credits would be ideal for me.

If the school has any credibility at all, it will not be "...relatively easy to acquire academic credit." For the lousy diploma mills, their degrees are worthless. They are easy though. Make up your mind and re-ask the question, but do it the smart way.

How long will it take for Asia to be a global power like America and Europe?
How long will it take for Asia to be a global power like America and Europe?
How many years will it take for the whole of Asia to be a global power like what Europe did in the Age of Discovery and Colonization Era wherein almost all of its nations inside the continent are rich,famous,progressive nations, civilized people and a major power?

europe is not a power,and never had been. Great Britain is the name you are looking for,America and Great Britain. Asians countries have big populations,but not much else
2 :
The criteria you use for global power -the age of Discovery and the era of Colonization are particular periods that I don't believe can be repeated by any nation let alone Asia. Those were eras that were dominated by an elite which saw many living in real poverty. Today the Americans seem to be preoccupied with projecting "power" militarily and the Chinese with the might of millions tied to overproduction. Our current models of growth are seriously faulty as they are not based on sustainable strategies. Visit Asia and see for yourself places like Shanghai which from the air look like New York and see the Western styles of housing and education in Singapore. China, India and Japan economically speaking already dwarf the West but their power is benign. So if you think that this dominance is similar to that of the West you would be wrong. Asia sees itself as just one part of a multi-polar world and not in terms of brute power. To answer your question- Asia (which is a lot of countries who are not united as one entity, like Europe) will never be a global power like America or Europe.

Why is Europe considered a separate continent while India is considered part of Asia?
Why is Europe considered a separate continent while India is considered part of Asia?
Europe and Asia have been together for much longer than India and Asia and the boundary between Europe and Asia is less substantial than the boundary between India and Asia. KT Dyke: did you just make that up or do you have some support for your statement?

it seems you dont know geography very well Europe and Asia can be united in Eurasia India is a unique sub-continent
2 :
The accepted boundaries of Europe and Asia came about for cultural reasons, not essentially geographic. It began with the ancient Greeks who recognised a boundary between their cultures and others in Asia Minor. As the geography of the region became more understood, the arbitrary division of Europe and Asia extended along cultural lines, between societies viewed as 'Asian' or 'European'. Some of the boundaries follow geographic features such as mountain ranges and lakes, but that's because it also it marked tribal boundaries. The accepted boundaries were established before the advent of modern geology and the understanding of plate tectonics.

The two continents collided most recently during the Oligocene, so the present Eurasia postdates India's connection with Asia.
