Jenny Sampson: Making a Tintype From Start To Finish

[@chickenitsa]

Beautiful work, Jenny! Just one question: Aren't you a little concerned about keeping (and regularly drinking from) a coffee cup that's in such close proximity to potassium cyanide, silver nitrate, etc.? I'd be freaked out!

[@brendanwhite3731]

I agree that the first thing I change ON DRINKING IN THE DARKROOM..LOVE the video hi from Ireland..

[@lilliestitleyy]

Thank you for making this video. beautiful shots! Do you have any recommendations on where I should look for a tin type camera / supplies? I’d love to get started myself. 🤍

[@jimhammer2012]

Where did you find a red headlamp?

[@shawnshawn3107]

Hi, can I use a regular holder for the metal plates?

[@keysersmoze]

Excellent video. Pleasure to watch. Thumbs up.

[@pahalmandarji5220]

Very beautiful. Your works is really inspiring. Excellent to watch enjoying.

This was hugely helpful and informative Jenny. So many practical tips in this video. I'll planning on starting my wet plate journey Spring of 2022 and this video has helped answer so many questions in my mind. Thanks.

Have you started , I’m just starting mine and would love to have somebody to brainstorm with.

I use a Cooke Series II f4.5 with #5 ILEX Shutter on my Chamonix 4x5 F2. Lovely images. On my list to do. Thanks

[@Normanskie]

Not bad for a first attempt, in fact I would venture to say a good well presented video explaining procedure very well and concise, thank you.

[@flipflopsleica]

Excellent, well done video and lovely images. I have a Chamonix F2 4x5 and Cooke Series II f4.5 lens so ready for wet plate yet here in Vietnam a struggle for chems. In time. What wet plate holder are you using for the Chamonix, i.e. their holder?

[@baroneblades5386]

Are you still doing it. I am just getting into it?

[@peter2712]

Nice video. What type of fabric is the darkroom made out of? I'm trying to rig something up and your setup seems perfect. Have you ever heard of people using a Speed Graphic 4x5 for wet plate?

[@melsaltimages]

Hey Peter, I've made a darkroom myself with some sort of black plastic-y material. If you go to a store and hold up material to the light, you can tell if it's worthy of using for a darkroom. I recommend layering blackout-curtain fabric as well!

Those are beautiful 😭

[@rthom2975]

That was awesome, thanks for making the video

[@kenklontz1945]

This is quit interesting if you get a chance some day maybe redo with some more information on were one could get the materials but a great job for a first film keep up great job 😎

[@chilecayenne]

Yes...ditto!! I"m wanting to learn to do this myself!!

[@usegatto]

My kind of girl... spiritually speaking. Beautiful work anyway. I also drink in the darkroom, but it's usually Coke. I'm just careful not to mix the poisons.

[@melody3741]

Please don’t drink coffee in there… or anything I mean

[@ZenoOkapi]

Thanks, a joy, wonderful and refreshing not to be watching a bearded guy with OCD about every element ! Lovely images. The cyanide freaks me a bit, take care.

Extra rinsing I didn’t consider🤜🤛
