Subject: Daguerreotype questions
Hi all:
1. I have a wood 5 x 7 sheet-film holder (Lisco cut film holder) and I
want adapt it for Daguerreotype use. Any idea?
2. What's the ideal look of a plate (Copper) silvered for daguerreotype?.
and the ideal silver thickness? . Any formula for calculate/control this
ideal silver thickness during electroplating process?
3. I have a 5 x 7 wood view camera and I want to adapt a sheet film holder
for daguerreotype use but, it is easy to make a simple daguerreotype
camera?. I have a rack- pinion (Darlot lens). Any archive, link, etc..
about it?
Thank you
PD: Sorry, my english is very bad
