I'd guess he used the standard equipment of the day, a Petzval with the option of using the front element as a landscape lens at a fairly small stop. The Petzval was the first convertible lens, serving as both of the two main options of the day, a fast portrait lens and a slower, wider-angle landscape lens.
The Globe and Orthoscop were made a little too late for the 1850-'55 date. The Sutton lens was an unsuccessful and impractical-to-use failure that required curved plates.
