An early type of photograph created by exposing a silver surface which has previously been exposed to either iodine or bromine vapour
Daguerreotype is an early photographic process It depended on long exposure time and bright light and was recorded on a silver plate It was invented by Louis Jacques Mandé Daguerre in 1837 Close
First successful form of photography. It is named for Louis Daguerre, who invented the technique in collaboration with Nicéphore Niepce. They found that if a copper plate coated with silver iodide was exposed to light in a camera, then fumed with mercury vapour, and fixed (made permanent) by a solution of common salt, a permanent image would be formed. The first daguerreotype image was produced in 1837, by which time Niepce had died, so the process was named for Daguerre. Many daguerreotypes, especially portraits, were made in the mid 19th century; the technique was gradually replaced by the wet collodion process, introduced in 1851
a photograph made by an early photographic process; the image was produced on a silver plate sensitized to iodine and developed in mercury vapor
An early photographic process with the image made on a light-sensitive silver-coated metallic plate pioneered by John William Draper in 1839
> Invented in 1839 by Louis-Jacques Mandé Daguerre, this was the first practical photographic process Also known as "The Mirror with a Memory", a daguerreotype is a unique image produced by coating a copper plate with a highly polished silver surface which is then sensitized with iodide fumes to form light sensitive silver iodide The plate is exposed in the camera and the resulting latent image is brought out with development in mercury vapors
process of recording images on polished metal plates, usually copper, covered with a thin layer of silver iodide emulsion
{i} first practical photographic method in which pictures were made on plates of glass or metal (names after its inventor, Louis Daguerre); picture made using the daguerrotype technique (also daguerrotype)
The first practical photographic process invented by L J M Daguerre in 1839 It is a unique direct positive image on a copper sheet coated with a light-sensitive silver halide, developed with mercury vapor The process remained popular until the late 1850s
An early variety of photograph, produced on a silver plate, or copper plate covered with silver, and rendered sensitive by the action of iodine, or iodine and bromine, on which, after exposure in the camera, the latent image is developed by the vapor of mercury
The first practical photographic process announced in 1839 by Louis Jacques Mande Daguerre, was popular from the early 1840s until the late 1850s A daguerreotype is aunique image on metal produced by treating a copper plate with a light-sensitized surface coating of silver iodide A daguerreotype is distinctive for its highly polished silver support and its quality of appearing either as a negative or positive, depending on the angle and light from which it is viewed Daguerreotypes are light-sensitive and fragile, and are usually stored in cases for protection
The world's first practical photographic process where the photograph was produced on a silver-coated copper plate The completed plate was usually housed in a protective leather case Daguerreotypes were introduced in the 1848 campaign of Zachary Taylor
Photo process developed by Joseph Daguerre that produces an extremely grainy, gray or sepia-toned (brownish) image; presently used to artificially convey age
Early system of photography in which the image is produced on a silver-coated plate
The first practical photographic process, invented by Daguerre and described by him in 1839 The process produced a positive image formed by mercury vapor on a metal plate coated with silver iodide
(4 syl ) A photographic process So named from M Daguerre, who greatly improved it in 1839 (See Talbotype )
