  • I am super excited to share a brand new Video with you where I discuss my recent endeavours to make Dry Plate Tintypes commercially available. Dry Plate Tintypes are very similar to a more well known Wet Plate version. The main difference and advantage of Dry Plate Tintypes is that they are coated with Silver Gelatine emulsion which is then dried and therefore plates can be used for months and developed whenever you desire. As you will see in the video, the results are absolutely stunning!

    On a side note, I've been using your wet plate holders, 4x5 and 5x7 for over a month and many plates, through them and I honestly have to say, they're very nice and there is no fogging at all.
    Very well made plate holders, thanks.

    Amazing man !!! What a great news!! This is what I was waiting for to try dry plates photography. It’s great that with this technique you can be able to transport the emulsion dry and have a positive image when you develope it. It opens a whole new world of tintypes photography

      GWTMC, can you share your method for ambrotypes? I am just trying to figure out the chems and dilutions. I have some more 4X5 and 5X7 J. Lane plates - don't want to waste more experimenting. I have some Lost Art Light plates coming.

    Awesome! It would be great if you could do a separate video on creating a positive glass plate. I shot 2 plates this weekend, both through a pinhole and the exact same exposure. The first plate turned out great with HC110 B, the second one was a complete failure. I used the formula you stated for the tintypes and did something very wrong. I'll have another go this weekend. Great stuff, thanks.

    I really appreciate you sir, your videos are super inspiraring helps me a lot! Please keep your passion!
    There is one question I would like to ask. I live in tropical area and I would like to try dry plate outdoor. It's usually super hot outside (30-35 degree celsius/ 86-95 Fahrenheit). Is it possible for me to bring the dry plate outside to shoot? Will it melt/ dissolve? Do you have any experience in this hot situation? Please help me!
    Thank you for your effort on sharing with us! I really appreciate!

    • @lostlightart6064
      @lostlightart6064  Год назад +1

      Hey. First of all thank you for the kind words. When it comes to hot environments Dry Plates are gonna handle that easily as when emulsion is dry it will withstand very high temperatures 😉

  • @richardstollar4291

    Did you mean "Ammonium thiocyanate" ?
    I couldn't find anything about Ammonium thiocyanide - perhaps it's the same?
    (I just ordered some of your plates to give this a try so want to get the correct chems)
