7. Louis Jacque Daguerre, 1839 Daguerreotype- Silver Halide on polished surface

9. Louis Jacque Daguerre, 1839 Daguerreotype- Silver Halide on polished surface Initially Iodine, later found Bromine and Chlorine made the surface more sensitive.

10. Louis Jacque Daguerre, 1839 Daguerreotype- Silver Halide on polished surface Initially Iodine, later found Bromine and Chlorine made the surface more sensitive. Exposed plate held over heated vat of Mercury, the vapors of which converted the silver that had been exposed to soluble form that could be washed away. The remaining silver remains, black in tone, on the plate.

Exposed plate held over heated vat of Mercury, the vapors of which converted the silver that had been exposed to soluble form that could be washed away. The remaining silver remains, black in tone, on the plate. Image is then “fixed” with a solution of hyposulphite of soda, which removes any unexposed halides on the plate.

15. William Fox Talbot, 1841 Calotype

16. William Fox Talbot, 1841 Calotype Similar to daguerreotype, in that Silver Iodine was used as a sensitizing agent. However, solution applied to paper, as opposed to metallic plate.

17. William Fox Talbot, 1841 Calotype Similar to daguerreotype, in that Silver Iodine was used as a sensitizing agent. However, solution applied to paper, as opposed to metallic plate. Primary advantage of this: Produced a paper negative, from which reproductions could more easily be made.
