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.
