I am looking to use my old 35mm SLR.
I do not want to pay others to develop my photos, that is what I have always done. I am now more interested in developing my photos.
I would like to know what I need etc! Is there any text books I could read?
I am yet to see a Dummies book on this, maybe there is a market space there.
its very simple!
just a few bits of hardware and chemicals to invest in and away you go!
1.] Developing tank and reel – to develop the exposed film in. It will enable you to
pour in the chemicals, pour them out again etc. without affecting the film inside.
2.] Changing bag – to transfer the exposed film from the camera and/or canister
into the developing tank without being affected by the light.
3.] Thermometer – the regulate and check temperature of the chemicals.
4.] Graduated mixing container – to mix the developer and fixer chemicals correctly

One good book that has everything you need to know
Eddie Ephraums Creative elements, you should pick it up on amazon second hand for a few quid.
Thank you or your replies. I will look into both the book and the courses. Both of them will keep me going for a while.
In this age of the the internet there are numerous films on U Tube showing the art of developing and printing films for beginners to advanced.
