Shooting wet plates handheld – yes it is possible and I did it Steampunk style! – my 4-months long journey on video
scroll down for English Version
Ich hatte schon lange die Idee Nassplatten aus der Hand zu fotografieren, doch dauerte die Umsetzung dafür sehr lange. Meine 4 Monate lange Reise vom Kauf, über die Renovierung bis zum Shooting könnt ihr euch in diesem Video ansehen. Auch wenn ich nur auf kleine Platten fotografiert habe, benötiget ich doch die 6000 bis 7000 Watt meiner Hensel-Blitze, da ich eine Softbox mit Wabe benutzte. Endlich kann ich kreativer bei einem Nassplattenshooting arbeiten (Doppelbelichtung zb). Das Steampunk Thema passt hier sehr gut mit der Mischung aus der fast 100 Jahre alten Kamera und den neuen Teilen zusammen. Viel Spaß beim Video und den Fotos!

English Version
The idea for that was born pretty early but it took me a very long time to make it.
In the video you can watch my journey from buying to renovating and finishing the nearly 100 year old camera. After that you can enjoy the behind the scenes of the wet plate collodion shooting. Even these are small plates, I had to use sometimes 6000-7000 Wats of Hensel strobe power to get enough light thru the grided softbox. Finally I can be more creative during a wet plate shoot (double exposure for example) The mixture of new and old materials during the renovation fits really good to the Steampunk themed shoot. Enjoy the video and the gallery.
