Many cameras have articulating screens (see attached). They are useful, so the question is What is the electrical connection between the camera and such a screen? At least several wires must be going from the computer in the camera to the screen, but we don't seem to see any. An Internet search yielded no answers either.
There is a free book on photography with a large chapter on history. See

I have used it with 2 Canon compact cameras and I'm satisfied. It works great.
A detailed source of information is chapter 4 in the free book available at:

Good luck,
There is a diagram of the 35 mm standard on page 24 of the free book available at:

The free ebook available at:
http://davidsalomon.name/PhotoBook/PhotoBook.pdf
has a section describing the L16. It starts on page 297.
The camera itself has been released recently. It is based on original principles and sound ideas. Let's hope it will prove successful.

Here are a few similar situations:
What NOT to Say to a Professional Photographer
Are you using a compact camera? What happened to all your great gear? (Too heavy.)
I put my camera in the P, A, S, and M modes, but it still won’t shoot videos. (Professionals take still photos, not videos.)
I love your pictures, you must have an amazing camera. (It’s the photographer, not the camera.)
(Very similar.) Look at those terrible pictures. You need a new camera. (Again, it’s the photographer, not the camera.)
I see you have this tall tripod; you must be a professional. (It’s not the tripod that makes great pictures.)
I’m a fireman and I’m looking for a less stressful, better paying occupation, some- thing like a wedding photographer. (Dealing with guests, children, and parents in a wedding is more stressful than fighting fires.)
Congratulations on winning that photography prize. I noticed the blurry area in the corner of your winning photo. Is that a new, revolutionary trend in photography? Shall I follow it? (This was a mistake that no one was supposed to notice.)
I’m a professional photographer, but I love the iPhone, and for artistic reasons. (The iPhone is not for professionals. No interchangeable lenses and it does not even have a manual mode.)
Those are great shots of yours. Hey, we have a party this weekend. I would love you to come and take some shots. We cannot a↵ord a professional photographer. (A personal, though unintended, slight.)
I can be a great photographer, only I cannot a↵ord the gear. (It’s the photographer, not the gear.)
Hey, would you like to see my photo creations. I keep them all right here, on my iPhone. (Again this iPhone.)
Let’s take a group shot before parting. Who’s got the best camera? (It’s the photographer, not the camera.)

Perhaps it might help your students.
There is a chapter on Vivian in the free PDF book available at:

There are also discussions of other famous and interesting photographers and a detailed history of photography.
Reminds me of the 1954 movie "elephant Walk" with Elizabeth Taylor. See http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0046951/
The free book available at http://davidsalomon.name/PhotoBook/PhoAd.html has a discussion of this topic starting on page 3.
The Light company (www.light.co) has a novel approach to this problem. They are now developing a camera based on 16 small modules, each using a plastic lens and a small 13Mpixel sensor. They expect to end up with large, 52 Mpixel images where the ISO, DOF, bokeh, and exposure can be changed by the user AFTER the picture has been taken.
A 10-page description of this camera is attached.
Remember! It's easy to lie with statistics.
