Why is wet printing expensive?

Wet printing photography requires high technology, high cost and high price. The machine used for wet printing photography is not small in size, complicated in workmanship and has been discontinued for a long time. Generally, I draw my own drawings and find craftsmen to customize them. Include handwork, medicine and unique negatives. I took a whole set of wet photos, which cost nearly ten thousand yuan.

Modern significance:

Today, with the influence of electronic and digital images, the unique artistry of wet collodion photography is precious and has a lofty and immortal position in photography.

Wet-plate collodion photography can help you get rid of the shackles of film manufacturers' price increase and out of stock and the troubles of flat large films. For example, after Polaroid stopped producing primary imaging consumables, all Polaroid machines in our hands became deaf ears.

For us, except the lens, everything else can be solved by ourselves, the machine can be built by ourselves, and the film box can be DIY by itself. The most fascinating part of this technology is to return to photography itself, so that players can really pay attention to the fun brought by the photography process and stop blindly pursuing equipment. If you are interested, try to buy some materials to practice. It feels good that everything is up to you.
