11/23/2024 ISO 1200 Magazine 0 Comments


Finally the transformation from a 113 year old film/plate camera to a modern wet plate camera is finished. I completely redesigned the plate holder again and created a ground glass.

A lot of very satisfying clicks when working with the camera. If you missed it, watch part 1 and part 2 of my renovation video. And there is also a video about what was in the camera when I got it, you can find it here (over 100000 people watched it)

Check out my video for the full walk through: can’t wait to shoot tintypes and ambrotypes with this 113 year old beast.
