The NON Smiling photos were in the very early days of Photography, the Photo Studio was indoors and Light Bulbs at the time 1880's weren't very bright and the film was very slow an would take over a minute to make an exposure, so since you can't hold a smile for that long and not move, so the "serious look" was much easier to hold for a minute or more. This camera used a special plate coated with an emulsion that wasn't very uniform or clean, but it was portable and could be taken out in the Sunlight which was very bright compared to a Photo Studio.

Following,

That's not at all true, with respect you don't know what you're talking about. By the 1850s, cameras had exposure times of as little of 3- seconds. To say in the 1880s - let alone 1840s - you'd have MINUTES of exposure time, shows clearly you know little about the subject.
