I must admit it's a tuffie... just love the fingers joke... though I'll have to change a few things because of it :)

I should have done it in pencil...

I must admit I fared not too badly...
Apart from Lartigue, Argus, Indirect toner, Lee filters and bad English spelling of collodion (how come I misspelled that?), I did get the rest.

But still, I can't figure out the hint about the Argus....... lost in translation perhaps. :)
