Photography: Wet Collodion Negative Process

Описание к видео Photography: Wet Collodion Negative Process

This film looks at the wet collodion process of printing from glass plate negatives.

The wet collodion process used a prepared piece of glass which, in the darkroom, would be coated with collodion and then made light-sensitive with further chemicals. Before the plate could dry, it would be placed in the camera and exposed. Then the plate would be returned to the darkroom and developed, rinsed, fixed, washed, dried and varnished. It was then ready for printing.
