Illustrated Catalogue of Photographic Equipments and Materials for Amateurs: January, 1891 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Illustrated Catalogue of Photographic Equipments and Materials for Amateurs: January, 1891
It is scarcely to be supposed that success should always attend one's first efforts, but rapid progress can generally be made by old or young, lady or gentleman, who may manifest the slightest disposition to excel.
Unlike the old wet plate, the gelatino-bromide process has the ad vantage of admitting a much wider latitude of exposure - that is to say, the actual time which the sensitive plate may now be subjected to light, though still important, is far less so than by the old collodion process, and the subsequent operations are free from the former objections of complexity, uncertainty and stains. The apparatus and chemicals required are also few and inexpensive, and there is nothing which the veriest tyro in chemistry cannot readily master.
Another obvious improvement is recognized in the exceeding lightness and portability of the equipments, and their greater adaptability to the requirements of the public.
