I am collecting formulas for producing calotype negatives. I have access
to a few ARNO reprints in my collection that have a fairly wide variety
of formulas. Has anyone actually *tried* the negative process and what
formula did you use? I was told by an experienced colleague that she had
tried the process and had difficulty. Someone told her that it was
simple as pie. Any hints?
Also, what papers have you found suitable for the process? Even if you
haven't tried the process, what paper might you suggest?
Thank you for your reply.
Yours,
