Wet Plate Collodion

  • EBPCO Community Darkroom 412 13th Street Oakland, CA, 94612 United States (map)

Wet Plate Collodion involves hand-coating a metal or glass plate with collodion then submerging it in silver nitrate. While still wet, the sensitized plate is put in a camera, exposed, and processed immediately following exposure. Participants learn the basics of this historical process, using metal plates to create tintypes.

Requirements: All materials are provided by EBPCO! Some previous experience with large format photography and view camera operation is required.
