In 1856 Richard Hüttig became a joiner in Berlin. He had been apprentice in a joinery for camera cases. He became master of this profession. Later he became chief of a big camera factory. His company, the Hüttig AG had been the biggest camera maker for a certain period. After the merge of his company into Ica his career declined. As poor old man he got a place in a home for the aged from the Council of Dresden.
