Lenses pop up where they pop up. If you don't know too much about vintage optics this forum is as safe a place as any to pick up a petzval. You don't need a petzval to make good work in wet plate, but they are fun and a little addicting. Price increases exponentially with speed and coverage. What size plates are you starting with? Where are you based, chances are there is someone within 100 miles of you who is making plates and may be a little further along than you who would be willing to spend some time with you.
