<p>[QUOTE="2manybooks, post: 2029236, member: 8267"]A tintype will always be a "reversed", mirror image. The process produces a "direct positive" - the plate placed in the camera becomes the final photograph, as opposed to a two-step process using a negative to create a positive print. Daguerreotypes and ambrotypes are also direct positives.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
