History of Photography Paper…. HELP?

Hey guyz, I have to hand in a paper due in within a week on the history of photography. I need to write about the historical part as well as the technological part that led to the development of the digital camera we use today. I’m kinda confused on where to begin. U guyz got any tips?
PS: Thnx in advance!! ^ ^

Start with the invention of the camera.
Then follow the major breakthroughs since then.
Devote one paragraph to each breakthrough, and use the links between paragraphs to discuss the problems that each new paper type had.
Considering there’s been about 5 major breakthroughs since photography was invented, that should get you a decent paper.
