Jason, Thank you for those great videos. That exposure unit in the back is what NuArc 261KS? If so I work for that company and we still make those units.
This is great! your videos are fantastically informative and fun. Thanks from all the amatuers looking to go pro. I can honestly say your channel has become my first stop for any photographic information, please please please keep up the good work! your humble fan in Notts UK :-)
Just got my self a complete set of gear for a dark room and look forward to setting it up and after watching your video's i have a fuller understanding how things work
Bravo, Bravo, You're Effin Awesome!!! To hell with the nay sayers, we all know Wilhelm Reich was right!! Thank you so much for these instructional videos.
Loved the videos. And now I have a good idea of what it's like to develop film. I'd like to set up a little lab once I move into a house and have a little more room. Keep it up!
hot damn i want a hurricane washer. I've been using a rodinax tank on ocasion for 135 film, and I can sit it in the sink and loosen the nut on the spool, the water running into it will keep the spool turning.
As far as use of squeegee on film is concerned, I do not do it either. I also think it is not really necessary as far as you use photo flo (or similar) in distilled water. I used distilled water only for photo flo not for making chemicals. The water in my area is a bit heavy.
Very useful for someone with no experience. Now all I need to do is work out how to print from the neg... (will search after this - hope u have a vid for that too :))
Before the film is developed it must be handled in total darkness, which is I I use the changing bag, and the light tight inversion tank. As the film is developed it becomes a negative, and after it is fixed it may be viewed in the light, as you see me do in part four. Thanks for watching!!
That was very cool. I've never really known how to develop film before, just what I've seen in films (serial killer type films mostly where the dark room seems to always come up). Anyway, I was under the impression that the room had to be dark when you took the film out. Right?
Started with Part 1 and kept going. Solid info in a down to earth presentation - has inspired me to dust off the gear. Why don't you do a weekly podcast! Thanks JB!!!
