How to use Zebra Glass Dry Plates | Video Guide | Large Format Photography

Since there are more and more of you out there shooting Zebra Dry Plates I have decided to make a detailed video tutorial on how to use them from loading the plates into Zebra Dual Plate Holder to metering, exposure, processing and even getting a positive print. I try to answer the most frequent questions by keeping things plain and simple. Dry Plate photography is an immensely rewarding and enjoyable way to make a photograph. It can feel overwhelming when you’re just starting out, but once you're familiar with the process, it will feel like second nature in no time. There’s something special in the way it slows you down and makes you pay attention to every detail. Not to mention the satisfaction you get when you see the final image appearing in-front of your eyes ;)

This is why I have decided to make this magical process available to everyone!
