Scanning Glass Plate Negatives in Oxfordshire UK
Archiving and Scanning Digitisation at Oxford Duplication Centre
Half Plate Negative Scanning
As opposed to the type of thin, flexible negatives you may be familiar with, glass plate negatives are exactly what they sound like: a negative printed on a glass plate. There are two different formats for glass plate negatives—the collodion wet plate negative and the gelatin dry plate. Both consist of a glass plate with a light sensitive emulsion fixed to it with a binding agent, which when exposed to light through a camera, creates an image.
