Equipment for making daguerreotypes

The Daguerreobase Project and the Museo FirST - Firenze Scienza e Tecnica present a video which shows an original daguerreotype camera with a lens manufactured by the Parisian optical firm Lerebours et Secretan around 1850.
This equipment belongs to the collection of the Physics Cabinet of the museum of the Fondazione Scienza e Tecnica in Florence. It is accompanied by a typical daguerreotype kit including a tripod, a box for treatment with mercury vapor, boxes for fuming with iodine and bromine, a soft buckskin pad for buffing the plates and a box of unexposed silvered copper plates ready for use.

Now that is a very nice set I'd love to add to my collection. Beautiful.
