Answer:

Easily reproduced

Step-by-step explanation:

The techniques of both were different because in Daguerre were unique copies on a silver plate, while Talbot invented the photogenic drawings, a technique that allowed the reproduction of objects by exposure to light on paper sensitized with a solution of silver chloride. In 1840, Talbot perfected this process, with the invention of the calotype, which unlike the method created by Daguerre, allowed the printing of several positives from a single negative, this would become the most used technique until the introduction of photography digital.
