Use Directly in Camera
A somewhat "alternative" use of Ilfochrome is that of using the paper directly inside a large format or ultra large format camera. This creates a unique image which appears reversed left-right. When techniques similar to this were used in the past (e.g., daguerrotypes) photographers commonly used 45 degree mirror add-ons that - when put on a lens - would reverse the image sideways thus recreating the correct view on the in-camera paper/plate.

Famous quotes containing the word camera:
“The camera is a killing chamber, which speeds up the time it claims to be conserving. Like coffins exhumed and prised open, the photographs put on show what we were and what we will be again.”
—Peter Conrad (b. 1948)
