UVP X Salted Collodion

Fast. Stable. Easy to Develop. Built for Portraits.

Available ready to shoot or as a two-part kit, UVP X is trusted by many of today's professional wet plate photographers for its consistent performance and beautiful tonal rendering.

Developed for speed, stability, and ease of use, UVP X is a modern cadmium-based collodion designed for producing tintypes, ambrotypes, and glass negatives. Its carefully balanced formula delivers excellent sensitivity, broad tonal range, and reliable results throughout its working life.

Stored in a cool, dark place, UVP X maintains excellent working characteristics for 6–12 months, allowing photographers to work with confidence from the first plate to the last.

The slightly elevated bromide content produces rich tonal separation that is especially well suited for portraiture, while the image develops with excellent visibility, making it easier to judge development and consistently produce beautiful plates.

    Collodion that keeps on keeping on!

    Posted by Unknown on Jul 27th 2021

    collodion that keeps on keeping on I originally ordered this stuff when I was traveling to LA for a wetplate shoot. I ordered all my chemicals from uv and. Picked it up locally. It was a pleasure to work with After the shoot I ended up shipping all the uv chemicals back to the easy coast. The left over uvpx became my back up collodion when ever my collodion acted up. Which was often. After awhile I realized that after six months the uvpx was still working with no problems. Now this is all I use. Brian should rename this stuff to modern faithful. Or simply the rock.

    Great collodion

    Very fast collodion. Great for studio work and outdoors. I tend to hold a bottle for 2-4 weeks before using. Also very stable so can don't have to worry about it getting too slow.

    This collodion is my go-to for my studio portrait work and its also great for on location shoots. Its fast, the contrast is nice, and it is an all around great choice that will suit all of your tintype portrait needs. You can't go wrong with this formula.

    Fast and stable

    I love this collodion. I used a bottle for approximately 90 days last summer and saw only minor increase in exposure time. It’s one of the fastest collodion I’ve ever used. Thanks
