I tried making wet plate collodion tintypes yesterday for the first time and absolutely loved it. The whole process from start to finish was the most enjoyable format of photography I've tried yet and its one that I'm going to continue on.

This was actually the second one I made from exposure through to varnishing, although its far from great I'm still pretty proud of it!

I either missed the focus on this one, or the lens is just too soft wide open. Actually I suspect both, but I wanted to see what it would do wide open.

 

Doh, I just realized that I scanned this negative upside down. And I replaced it with a flopped version to correct it.

Shot this in Princeton in the spring. Finally got around to developing the color negs. I don't think this picture is that great but I love the color of the stone.

8banners 4x5 large format pinhole camera. The camera comes in a nicely made wooden case which can also be used as a 8x10 pinhole camera. This set in effect gives you 2 camera in a setie. a 4x5 & a 8x10 large frormat pinhole cameras. The 4x5 camera takes all Graflok accessories.

"'One fast move or I'm gone' so I jump up, do my headstand first to pump blood back into the hairy brain, take a shower in the hall, new T-shirt and socks and underwear, pack vigorously, hoist the rucksack and run out throwing the key on the desk and hit the cold street...I've got to escape or die..." - Jack Kerouac Big Sur

Wet plate collodion process

This is my large format 4x5 camera. I used to own a Crown Graphic but it had limited movements so I sold it for this model. The photo above shows it with a Schneider 90mm f/5.6 Super Angulon lens. You'll notice that the lens is at the very back tip of the railing. This is probably the widest lens that can be used on this camera. Wider lenses can be used but I think you have to modify the camera/railing to make it work. I also have to drop the bed to make sure that it does not show up on the negative. What I like about this camera is the revolving back so I can compose my photos in landscape or portrait orientation without turning the whole camera. It has full front tilts, swings, & rise. There are no movement for the back though. I don't do much architectual work so I do not need too much movement with this camera.

 

When I first got this camera I had a hell of a time trying to figure out how to open it. I was used to opening my Crown Graphic by its hidden button on the side. I was looking all over the camera for the hidden button but couldn't find one. I eventually figured out that I needed to roll the railing down to

Velvia 50 4x5, Super Angulon 75mm

This is my bathroom.

 

It's naturally grimy from a lack of cleaning and I love looking at the slide on a light table. Under a loupe, a miniature world opens up and the stains on the toilet seat and the dust on the surfaces are readily apparent. This is one of my first exposures with the 4x5 camera. I must have taken over 10 shots of my bathroom when I first got the camera to test different exposures and push/pull processing.

finally we get the production version of Smartflex3445. Full new mechanics, easy switch between film and instax. The experience can be totally different from the old graflex. An Ultimate large format SLR!
