A colorless flammable material made from nitrocellulose and camphor and used to make photographic film. (difference.wiki)
Made of or using a material made from nitrocellulose and camphor. (difference.wiki)
Salts1
The layer, usually of gelatin or collodion, containing the sensitive salts of photographic plates. (difference.wiki)
Emulsions2
In 1851, Frederick Scott Archer invented the wet collodion process as a replacement for albumen in early photographic emulsions, binding light-sensitive silver halides to a glass plate. (wikipedia.org)
Film cameras use photographic emulsions , light falling upon silver halides is recorded as a latent image , which is then subjected to photographic processing , making it visible and insensitive to light. (cloudfront.net)
Gelatin1
Writing in the British Journal Of Photography he suggested gelatin, derived from a protein found in animal bones, as a collodion substitute. (photographer.org.uk)
Colorless1
In terms of lacquers and coatings, nitrocellulose dissolves readily in organic solvents, which upon evaporation leave a colorless, transparent, flexible film. (wikipedia.org)
Dries quickly1
It dries quickly because the ether and the collodion evaporate. (art21.org)
Mixture2
Nitrocellulose (also known as cellulose nitrate, flash paper, flash cotton, guncotton, pyroxylin and flash string, depending on form) is a highly flammable compound formed by nitrating cellulose through exposure to a mixture of nitric acid and sulfuric acid. (wikipedia.org)
The process uses a mixture of nitric acid and sulfuric acid to convert cellulose into nitrocellulose. (wikipedia.org)
citation needed] Membrane filters made of a mesh of nitrocellulose threads with various porosities are used in laboratory procedures for particle retention and cell capture in liquid or gaseous solutions and, reversely, obtaining particle-free filtrates. (wikipedia.org)
A nitrocellulose slide, nitrocellulose membrane, or nitrocellulose paper is a sticky membrane used for immobilizing nucleic acids in southern blots and northern blots. (wikipedia.org)
Emulsion2
In the form of collodion it was also a critical component in an early photographic emulsion, the use of which revolutionized photography in the 1860s. (wikipedia.org)
A thin sheet or strip of flexible material, such as a cellulose derivative or a thermoplastic resin, coated with a photosensitive emulsion and used to make photographic negatives or transparencies. (difference.wiki)
Celluloid1
A flexible sheet of celluloid or other plastic material to which a light-sensitive layer has been applied, used for recording images by the processes of photography. (difference.wiki)
Analog3
Analog photography , also known as film photography , is a catch-all term for photography that uses chemical processes to capture an image, typically on paper , film or a hard plate . (cloudfront.net)
These analog processes were the only methods available to photographers for more than a century prior to the invention of digital photography , which uses electronic sensors to record images to digital media . (cloudfront.net)
The difference between analogue and digital camera is as a technology, analog is the process of taking an audio or video signal (in most cases, the human voice) and translating it into electronic pulses. (domolleida.com)
Film6
In 2017, BH Photo & Video , an e-commerce site for photographic equipment, stated that film sales were increasing by 5% each year in the recent past. (cloudfront.net)
As digital photography took over, Kodak , the major photographic film and cameras producer, announced in 2004 that it is would stop selling and making traditional film cameras in North America and Europe . (cloudfront.net)
Interest in all types of film photography has been in the process of revival. (cloudfront.net)
Film photographers started experimenting with old alternative photographic processes such as cyanotypes , double exposures , pinholes , and redscales . (cloudfront.net)
Any of a variety of thermoplastics created from nitrocellulose and camphor, once used as photographic film. (difference.wiki)
ambitransitive) To record (activity, or a motion picture) on photographic film. (difference.wiki)
Photography2
The Collodion process greatly expanded photography and brought everyone into contact with its results. (photographer.org.uk)
For those who are keen to work with, or do work with more traditional types of photography, dedicated online communities have been established in which like-minded individuals together share and explore old photographic practices. (cloudfront.net)
Chemical1
In precise chemical terms, nitrocellulose is not a nitro compound, but a nitrate ester. (wikipedia.org)
Silver2
Then you take the plate to the silver nitrate and-for reasons that escape me completely-the silver nitrate sticks to the collodion and ether, and coats it. (art21.org)
Following suggestions he improved his process, using silver iodide and developing in gallic acid. (photographer.org.uk)
Negative1
Patented " calotype" (later "Talbotype") a negative / positive process with 5 minutes exposure time. (photographer.org.uk)
Glass1
Nitrocellulose lacquer is spin-coated onto aluminium or glass discs, then a groove is cut with a lathe, to make one-off phonograph records, used as masters for pressing or for play in dance clubs. (wikipedia.org)
Methods1
Published a book suggesting how a range of colour photographic methods might work, but they could not yet be put into practice. (photographer.org.uk)
Cotton2
Nitrocellulose (also known as cellulose nitrate, flash paper, flash cotton, guncotton, pyroxylin and flash string, depending on form) is a highly flammable compound formed by nitrating cellulose through exposure to a mixture of nitric acid and sulfuric acid. (wikipedia.org)
Collodion, initially developed as a kind of liquid bandage around the time of the American Civil War, has been alternately called nitrocellulose, "gun cotton" and "flashpaper," the latter being a variant used by magicians, capitalizing on its property of extreme combustibility. (johnallenart.com)
Skin2
Nail polish is made from nitrocellulose lacquer, as it is inexpensive, dries quickly, and is not damaging to skin. (wikipedia.org)
The collodion skin used in tin-type photography forms a photographic positive when placed on darkened metal if sensitized, exposed and developed. (johnallenart.com)
Word1
The inventors Nicéphore Niépce , Talbot, and Louis Daguerre seem not to have known or used the word "photography", but referred to their processes as "Heliography" (Niépce), "Photogenic Drawing"/"Talbotype"/"Calotype" (Talbot), and "Daguerreotype" (Daguerre). (alamoana.net)
Method1
Adolph Noé developed a method of peeling coal balls using nitrocellulose. (wikipedia.org)
Terms2
In precise chemical terms, nitrocellulose is not a nitro compound, but a nitrate ester. (wikipedia.org)
This series' title Flashpaper Haikus refers to the magic wet-plate holds for me (both in terms of process and aesthetics) as well as the rapid-fire, simple and joyful compositions made with either toy cameras or as photograms in this group of small-scale, ethereal images. (johnallenart.com)
