  • Looks like a lot of work

  • @Jesslayc Tintypes and Ambrotypes (also called Wet Plate Collodion) were used more in the US during the war. The patent on Daguerrotypes was enforced pretty severely so they cost too much. In addition Tintypes and Ambrotypes are much easier and don't involve mercury fumes. There's plenty of information the process if you just google around.

  • so i do civil war re-enacting and im into photography and i do 1850s and i heard the daguerrotype is perios to that time, i want to make one but with the inside empty so i can put my camera in there and take pictures and look period, do u know where i might find instructions for that?
