Daguerreotype
Daguerreotype
A photographic process that captures an image directly onto a light-sensitive metal plate, creating a positive image.
Calotype
Calotype
A photographic process where a negative is produced on a paper surface, and then used to make a print.
Collodion (wet-plate)
Collodion (wet-plate)
A photographic process using a glass plate coated with a light-sensitive collodion solution, requiring processing while still wet.
