From the start, photographic recording processes such as the <a href="/wiki/Daguerreotype" title="Daguerreotype">daguerreotype</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Paper_negative" title="Paper negative">paper negative</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Collodion_process" title="Collodion process">glass collodion negative</a> did not render the color of light (although they were sensitive to some colors more than others). The result was a monochrome image. </p><p>Until the 1880s, photographic processes that were used for printing negatives—such as <a href="/wiki/Calotype" title="Calotype">calotype</a>, <a href="/wiki/Ambrotype" title="Ambrotype">ambrotype</a>, <a href="/wiki/Tintype" title="Tintype">tintype</a>, <a href="/wiki/Salt_print" title="Salt print">salt print</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Albumen_print" title="Albumen print">albumen print</a>—generally produced images with a variety of brown or sepia tones. Later processes moved toward a black-and-white image, although photographers have used <a href="/wiki/Photographic_print_toning" title="Photographic print toning">toning</a> solutions to convert silver in the image to silver sulphide, imparting a brown or <a href="/wiki/Photographic_print_toning#Sepia_toning" title="Photographic print toning">sepia tone</a>.
