Foto presa amb una càmera tipus "falling plate" Hüttig Trilby de format 9x12, fabricada entre 1905 i 1907; placa seca Jason Lane Speed Plate 25 ASA, revelada amb Rodinal.
El Mercat central de Sabadell, on vaig comprar la meva primera càmera classica: una Zeiss Ikon Nettar 515/2.
Les càmeres tipus "falling plate", tot i que força grans, realment permeten una forma força senzilla de fer fotos amb plaques de gelatino-bromur (dry plate) pel carrer. Ho portes tot literalment dins una caixa, que és la càmera.
======================
Picture taken with a Hüttig Trilby 9x12 falling plate camera, made c. 1905-1907; Jason Lane Speed Plate 25 ASA, developed in Rodinal.
Here, in the Sunday's flea market, in the central covered market of Sabadell, I bought in 2018 my first collectible film camera. A Zeiss Ikon Nettar 515/2.
The falling plate box camera is a very convenient way to take pictures with dry plates, as everything you need is literally inside a box. They are big and unflexible in taking the picture, but practica in their own way.
